Abstract

In the age of precision medicine, extensive research has investigated tumour biomarkers to predict the behaviour of cancer and/or response to treatment in order to better understand the prognosis and treatment of disease. In breast cancer, significant progress has been made to categorise a common disease into subtypes defined by intrinsic tumour biology, measured by tumour biomarkers. This review encompasses the established biomarkers within breast cancer with the most up-to-date information regarding their understanding and clinical use as predictive and/or prognostic markers of breast cancer.
