The core concept of personalized treatment is to develop individualized treatment strategies based on the unique characteristics of the patient and the molecular features of the tumor, aiming to provide more effective and less toxic treatment options. The rapid advancement of precision medicine technologies has strongly supported the implementation of personalized treatment, including the association between gene mutations and cancer development, the application of genomics technologies, and the identification of tumor driver genes. This review comprehensively discusses the definitions and development trends of personalized and precision cancer treatment, the application of molecular biology and genomics in cancer research, precise methods for diagnosis and staging, and personalized treatment approaches and applications. It also emphasizes the importance of personalized and precision treatment in cancer therapy, encouraging future research and clinical practice to offer better treatment options for patients, advance the field, and ultimately reduce cancer mortality.
