Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) Mutations in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL): A Clinical View.
Review in Mediterranean journal of hematology and infectious diseases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKis) have reshaped the management of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The first-generation BTKi ibrutinib demonstrated significant efficacy, leading to the development of second-generation agents (acalabrutinib, zanubrutinib) with improved selectivity and safety. However, resistance-most often driven by BTK mutations at the cysteine residue at position 481 (C481S)-remains a major therapeutic limitation. Noncovalent BTKis, such as pirtobrutinib, offer effective options for patients relapsing after covalent BTKi therapy. However, the emergence of novel resistance mutations continues to limit durable responses. As insights into the molecular basis of BTK resistance evolve, routine mutation testing is poised to become integral to personalized treatment in CLL. Future clinical trials are expected to adopt mutation-driven stratification to guide therapeutic sequencing. Ultimately, overcoming BTKi resistance will require innovative strategies, including BTK degraders, bispecific antibodies, and T cell-engaging immunotherapies.
