Abstract

Triple-negative breast cancer has fewer treatment options than other types of invasive breast cancers. This is because of the lack of estrogen, progesterone receptors and HER2 proteins, which limits the targeted therapy for TNBC. The main therapeutic options are chemotherapy and radiation therapy. However, these treatments are associated with drug resistance and ultimately poor prognosis and reduced survival. It is thus vital to overcome drug resistance and develop targeted therapy for TNBC for enhanced prognosis and prolonged survival. This mini review discusses drug resistance and targeted therapy for TNBC.
