Modifying Epigenetic Landscapes to Restore Immune Therapeutic Responses in Triple Negative Breast Cancer.
Review in Cancers, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype of breast cancer defined by the absence of estrogen and progesterone receptors, as well as the lack of human epidermal growth factor 2 receptor overexpression. TNBC is associated with early onset, high metastatic potential, therapeutic resistance, and poor clinical outcomes exacerbated by the limited availability of effective targeted therapies. Advances in multi-omics profiling have further stratified TNBC into distinct molecular subtypes, each exhibiting unique genomic, epigenomic, and immune-related features that influence therapeutic responsiveness. This review explores the interplay between TNBC molecular heterogeneity, immune evasion mechanisms, and epigenetic regulation. TNBC demonstrates variable immunogenicity, with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes serving as important prognostic and predictive biomarkers. However, immune escape commonly occurs through tumor microenvironment remodeling, T-cell exhaustion, cancer stem cell enrichment, and immune checkpoint pathways activation. Although immune checkpoint inhibitors have improved outcomes in selected patients, particularly in combination with chemotherapy, primary and acquired therapeutic resistance remain a significant challenge. Emerging evidence highlights the central role of epigenetic mechanisms in regulating immune-related gene expression and shaping the tumor immune microenvironment. Epigenetic silencing of antigen presentation machinery, interferon signaling pathways, and chemokine expression contributes to immune evasion and immunotherapy resistance. Importantly, pharmacological modulation of epigenetic regulators can restore immune recognition and induce "viral mimicry" through reactivation of endogenous retroelements, thereby enhancing antitumor immunity. Collectively, this review underscores the therapeutic potential of integrating epigenetic therapies with immunotherapy and chemotherapy to overcome immune resistance in TNBC. A deeper understanding of epigenetic-immune interactions may facilitate the development of more precise and effective treatment strategies tailored to TNBC molecular subtypes.
