Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Precision medicine (PM) has become the modern-day approach to breast cancer management.

Depending on the genetic variations, environmental factors, and lifestyle dynamics of each individual, PM aims to accomplish optimal therapeutic results, with reduced or no side effects, in a reasonable time and at an appropriate cost.

The approach of PM to disease management has been driven by the evolution of molecular biology and the opening of the human genome. PM is applied to most branches of medicine, including oncology, preventive medicine, and genetic and inherited disease, and there are no ethical dilemmas or moral challenges related to PM.
