Each patients cancer is like fingerprint: where are we in molecular profiling in breast cancer diagnosis?
Journal Title: Medical Science and Discovery - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer related deaths in women. Since every patient has unique molecular profile of tumorigenesis, efficient treatment choice should be tailored according to each patients gene expression profile. Therefore, it is critical to investigate molecular patterns of each patient before choosing the right treatment. For this aim, many commercial breast cancer subtyping methods are available. This review focuses on new developments and methods in molecular profiling of breast cancer.
