An overview of BAP1 biological functions and current therapeutics.
Review in Biochimica et biophysica acta. Reviews on cancer, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 16 papers.
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
BRCA1-associated protein 1 (BAP1) is a tumor suppressor gene that was first identified in 1998. Germline loss-of-function variants in BAP1 are associated with a tumor predisposition syndrome with at least four cancers: uveal melanoma (UM), malignant mesothelioma (MMe), renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and cutaneous melanoma (CM). Furthermore, somatic BAP1 mutations are important drivers for several cancers most notably UM, MMe, RCC, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Emerging evidence substantiates the fundamental role of BAP1 in suppressing cancer initiation and progression by tuning DNA damage repair, apoptosis, ferroptosis, immune response, Warburg phenomenon, and metastasis. Multiple treatment strategies such as poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, EZH2 inhibitors, alkylating agents, and immunotherapy have been used as potential therapies for BAP1-mutated tumors. Although these agents showed promising results in BAP1-mutated tumors in preclinical studies, the results of most clinical trials are still dismal. The objectives of this review are to summarize the current state of knowledge regarding the biological functions of BAP1, the implications of these functions in tumorigenesis, and the current progress in BAP1-targeted therapy.
