Ibrutinib inhibits the replication of multiple poxviruses by targeting the Bruton tyrosine kinase.
Article in Journal of virology, 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
The recent surge in global monkeypox (mpox) outbreaks highlights the critical need for developing antiviral agents targeting orthopoxvirus infections. Ibrutinib, a selective Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor initially approved by the FDA in 2013 for treating chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), has emerged as a potential antiviral candidate based on a high-throughput screening for its efficacy against vaccinia virus (VACV). This study evaluated the antiviral capability of ibrutinib against VACV, mpox virus (MPXV), and lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV), demonstrating its strong antiviral activity against multiple poxviruses.
