Abstract

In the recent years the rapid scientific innovation in the evaluation of the individual's genome have allowed the identification of variants associated with the onset, treatment and prognosis of various pathologies including cancer, and with a potential impact in the assessment of therapy responses. Despite the analysis and interpretation of genomic information is considered incomplete, in many cases the identification of specific genomic profile has allowed the stratification of subgroups of patients characterized by a better response to drug therapies. Individual genome analysis has changed profoundly the diagnostic and therapeutic approach of breast cancer in the last 15 years by identifying selective molecular lesions that drive the development of neoplasms, showing that each tumor has its own genomic signature, with some specific features and some features common to several sub-types. Several personalized therapies have been (and still are being) developed showing a remarkable efficacy in the treatment of breast cancer.
