The advent of pharmacogenomics has ushered in a new era of personalized medicine, offering hope for more effective and tailored treatment strategies for breast cancer. This paper explores the integration of pharmacogenomics into personalized medicine for breast cancer, highlighting the potential to significantly enhance treatment efficacy, reduce adverse drug reactions, and improve patient outcomes. By examining the role of genetic variations in drug metabolism and response, we underscore the importance of pharmacogenomic testing in identifying optimal therapeutic regimens for individual patients. This review also addresses the challenges and considerations in implementing pharmacogenomics into clinical practice, including ethical, logistical, and educational hurdles. Through a comprehensive analysis of current research, clinical trials, and case studies, this paper aims to illustrate the pathways, potentials, and challenges of integrating pharmacogenomics into personalized medicine for breast cancer, thereby contributing to the advancement of precision oncology.
