Scientific evidence has revealed that PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling cascade plays an important role in the development and progression of BC, contributing to key cellular processes including cell growth, proliferation, angiogenesis, and metastasis. Dysregulation of the components of this cascade including functional loss of Phosphatase and TENsin homolog (PTEN), PI3K hyperactivation, and gain-of-function of AKT, are frequently observed in BC subtypes, making it a promising target for therapeutic intervention. A myriad of studies have documented the potential of phytochemicals, including curcumin, chrysin, fisetin, genistein, resveratrol and lycopene as modulators of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR axis. These phytochemicals exhibit multifaceted mechanisms of action, including inhibition of key kinases, induction of apoptosis, suppression of angiogenesis, and reversal of resistance to chemotherapy. This review aims to provide a detailed overview about the role of PI3K/AKT/mTOR alteration in BC development and the current research on phytochemicals that modulate the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway in BC.

While the findings are noteworthy and contribute to the expanding literature on the supportive role of vitamin D in oncology, several critical methodological issues warrant further discussion. Specifically, the study did not adjust for key clinicopathologic variables-such as tumor subtype, T and N stage, lymphovascular invasion, and treatment intensity-that are well-established predictors of pCR. The lack of multivariate analysis raises concerns regarding potential confounding. Furthermore, the categorization of molecular subtypes lacked granularity, particularly in the distinction between luminal A and B tumors, which are known to exhibit divergent treatment responses. The study's narrow focus on pCR, without reporting other relevant pathological endpoints such as ypT/ypN stage or Miller-Payne grading, also limits its clinical interpretability. Importantly, ethical concerns arise from assigning patients with vitamin D deficiency to placebo, given the growing evidence supporting its correction in oncologic care.
