Core Tip This article delineates the paradigm of driver gene mutation-guided precision therapy in breast cancer. We synthesize the clinical application of targeting key mutations (e.g., PIK3CA, ESR1, BRCA1/2) and analyze the complex landscape of acquired resistance. Critically, we propose a forward-looking framework integrating multi-omics, liquid biopsy, and artificial intelligence to dynamically navigate treatment. The article underscores the necessity of evolving from static biomarker testing towards a proactive, digitally-enabled ecosystem to overcome resistance and optimize sequential therapy, ultimately aiming for sustained patient benefit.
