SOX2 utilizes FOXA1 as a heteromeric transcriptional partner to drive proliferation in therapy-resistant prostate cancer.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2025. 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
Treatment options and diagnostic outlook for men with advanced, therapy resistant prostate cancer (PCa) are extremely poor; this is primarily due to the common lack of durable response to androgen receptor (AR) targeted therapies and phenotypic transdifferentiation into a particularly lethal subtype known as neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC). In this study, we mechanistically determine that SOX2 (a transcription factor originally repressed by AR) physically binds and acts in a concerted manner with FOXA1 (a key AR pioneering cofactor) to regulate a subset of genes which promote cell cycle progression, and lineage plasticity in AR-refractory prostate cancers. Our findings assert the SOX2/FOXA1 interaction as an important mediator of resistance to AR-targeted therapy and a driver of NEPC and lineage plasticity; their coordinated action and downstream signaling offers a potential novel therapeutic opportunity in late-stage PCa.
