Key findings

What ClinicalTrials.gov does not surface for Abdominal Pain on its own pages , computed from the registry mirror as of 2026-08-08. Each line carries its own denominator so it can be quoted as it stands.

  1. Abdominal Pain is recruiting below its size-band peers.

    5 of 20 indexed trials (25%) are open to enrollment, against a 39.7% average across 762 conditions with 20-99 trials. The peer set uses the same ClinicalTrials.gov-derived counts as this page.

  2. Sponsorship of Abdominal Pain trials is spread across many organizations.

    Seattle Children's Hospital accounts for 2 of 20 trials (10%). 18 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Typical Abdominal Pain enrolment sits around 120 participants.

    Median target enrolment is 120 among the 20 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 7 of those (35%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.

  4. Abdominal Pain research is mostly interventional.

    18 interventional and 2 observational studies make up this index (90% interventional). Study type is sponsor-reported on ClinicalTrials.gov.
