Inhibition of CXorf56 promotes PARP inhibitor-induced cytotoxicity in triple-negative breast cancer.
Article in NPJ breast cancer, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPis) induce DNA lesions that preferentially kill homologous recombination (HR)-deficient breast cancers induced by BRCA mutations, which exhibit a low incidence in breast cancer, thereby limiting the benefits of PARPis. Additionally, breast cancer cells, particularly triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells, exhibit HR and PARPi resistance. Therefore, targets must be identified for inducing HR deficiency and sensitizing cancer cells to PARPis. Here, we reveal that CXorf56 protein increased HR repair in TNBC cells by interacting with the Ku70 DNA-binding domain, reducing Ku70 recruitment and promoting RPA32, BRCA2, and RAD51 recruitment to sites of DNA damage. Knockdown of CXorf56 protein suppressed HR in TNBC cells, specifically during the S and G2 phases, and increased cell sensitivity to olaparib in vitro and in vivo. Clinically, CXorf56 protein was upregulated in TNBC tissues and associated with aggressive clinicopathological characteristics and poor survival. All these findings indicate that treatment designed to inhibit CXorf56 protein in TNBC combined with PARPis may overcome drug resistance and expand the application of PARPis to patients with non-BRCA mutantion.
