Targeting the Hippo/YAP Pathway: A Promising Approach for Cancer Therapy and Beyond.
Review in MedComm, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Cancer represents a growing cause of death and a threat to public health worldwide; thus, there is an urgent need to understand its pathological mechanism and design effective therapies. The Hippo pathway regulates diverse cellular processes under physiological conditions; however, its dysregulation is associated with several types of cancer, including lung, pancreatic, colorectal, breast, and prostate cancer. Consequently, compounds targeting deregulated Hippo components represent potential treatments for a broad spectrum of cancers. Nonetheless, currently, there is limited information integrating the growing evidence of this potential. Therefore, the review's objective is to provide insight into the potential efficacy of targeting the Hippo/yes-associated protein (YAP) pathway for cancer therapy. First, we describe the molecular mechanisms of the Hippo signaling pathway in physiological conditions and several cancer types. We then provide an overview of natural products and synthetic compounds targeting this pathway, highlighting their potential applications in treating diverse cancers. We also discuss relevant preclinical and clinical studies of compounds targeting the Hippo pathway in cancer. Finally, we summarize our findings and offer recommendations for future research. This review emphasizes the role of the Hippo/YAP pathway in cancer and the potential of natural products and synthetic compounds targeting this pathway for cancer treatment.
