Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) remains the most prevalent cancer among women and the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. The heterogeneity of BC in terms of histopathological features, genetic polymorphisms, and response to therapies necessitates a personalized approach to treatment. This review focuses on the impact of molecular profiling on therapy management in breast cancer, emphasizing recent advancements in next-generation sequencing (NGS) and liquid biopsies. These technologies enable the identification of specific molecular subtypes and the detection of blood-based biomarkers such as circulating tumor cells (CTCs), circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), and tumor-educated platelets (TEPs). The integration of molecular profiling with traditional clinical and pathological data allows for more tailored and effective treatment strategies, improving patient outcomes. This review also discusses the current challenges and prospects of implementing personalized cancer therapy, highlighting the potential of molecular profiling to revolutionize BC management through more precise prognostic and therapeutic interventions.
