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.

Tumor Progression
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...
