Breast cancer is one of the prevalent malignant tumors among women worldwide. Conventional treatment strategies often suffer from systemic toxicity, strong drug resistance, and limited targeting capability. In recent years, with advances in biomaterials and drug delivery technologies, microneedles have emerged as a novel transdermal delivery platform offering advantages such as minimal invasiveness, precise targeting, and efficient delivery. These features render microneedles particularly promising for breast cancer therapy. This review summarizes recent progress in the application of microneedle drug delivery systems in breast cancer, including their use in delivering antitumor agents, immunotherapy, photothermal/photodynamic therapy, among others. The mechanisms of action and therapeutic advantages are discussed, along with current challenges and future prospects, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the translational application of microneedles in breast cancer treatment.
