Abstract
The new millennium has been marked by the advent of biological targeted therapy in the treatment for breast cancer, which has gradually worked its way from a treatment for metastatic disease to adjuvant and, most recently, neoadjuvant indications. It meets the demands for individualization of treatment as it is intended for a small, well-defined group of patients, which guarantees its excellent efficacy.
The novel agents as well as new indications in monotherapy or in combination may take the treatment for breast cancer in a new direction.
