Abstract

Objective: Breast cancer is a kind of malignant tumor which seriously endangers women's health. With the development of molecular biology technology and the further understanding of pathogenesis, the treatment of breast cancer has entered a new era of molecular targeted therapy, and has been making new progress. At present, molecular targeted drugs for the treatment of breast cancer keep emerging, mainly including endocrine therapy targeting estrogen and progesterone receptor (ER/PR), targeted drugs treatment for epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2); phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K)/Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway inhibitors, anti-angiogenic drugs, poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors for BRCA1/2 mutations, cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors, etc. Because some signal pathway abnormalities may occur in different molecular types of breast cancer, the same targeted drugs are cross-used in different types.
