The first pair of papers focus on the treatment of advanced oestrogen-receptor-positive and HER2-positive breast cancers, while the third describes how an improved understanding of molecular alterations in the heterogeneous and hard-to-treat triple-negative breast cancer may lead to more refined and more effective therapy. http://www.thelancet.com/series/breast-cancer-2016
