Abstract: A silent monster, breast cancer, is a challenging medical task for researchers. Breast cancer is a leading
cause of death in women with respect to other cancers. A case of breast cancer is diagnosed among women
every 19 seconds, and every 74 seconds, a woman dies of breast cancer somewhere in the world. Several risk
factors, such as genetic and environmental factors, favor breast cancer development. This review tends to provide
deep insights regarding the genetics of breast cancer along with multiple diagnostic and therapeutic approaches
as problem-solving negotiators to prevent the progression of breast cancer. This assembled data mainly
aims to discuss omics-based approaches to provide enthralling diagnostic biomarkers and emerging novel
therapies to combat breast cancer. This review article intends to pave a new path for the discovery of effective
treatment options.
