Novel derivatives of brincidofovir and (S)-9-(3-hydroxy-2-phosphonylmethoxypropyl)adenine inhibit orthopoxviruses and human adenoviruses more potently than brincidofovir.

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
Brincidofovir (BCV) and tecovirimat are the only two chemical drugs that have been approved to treat smallpox and can be requested for monkeypox (Mpox) treatment through a single-patient Emergency Investigational New Drug (EIND) application. Disappointedly, the efficacy of tecovirimat manifested in recent clinical trials is far from being satisfactory, while the clinical efficacy of BCV is still inconclusive. Given that monkeypox virus (MPXV), variola and other emerging orthopoxviruses are posing serious threats to global health, it is urgent to develop better therapeutics. In this study, we tested the antiviral effects of three novel prodrugs, which were designed based on previously reported parent drugs, either (S)-1-(3-hydroxy-2-phosphonylmethoxypropyl)cytosine ((S)-HPMPC, cidofovir) or (S)-9-(3-hydroxy-2-phosphonylmethoxypropyl)adenine ((S)-HPMPA). We found that one of the (S)-HPMPA-based prodrugs, ODE-(S)-HPMPA formate, exhibited significantly better anti-orthopoxvirus activity than BCV both in vitro and in vivo, which also inhibited human adenovirus type 2 and type 21 more efficiently than BCV. Most strikingly, the EC
