Key findings

What ClinicalTrials.gov does not surface for Age-related Macular Degeneration 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. Age-related Macular Degeneration is recruiting below its size-band peers.

    20 of 75 indexed trials (26.7%) 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 Age-related Macular Degeneration trials is spread across many organizations.

    National Eye Institute (NEI) accounts for 8 of 75 trials (10.7%). 53 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Typical Age-related Macular Degeneration enrolment sits around 79 participants.

    Median target enrolment is 79 among the 75 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 42 of those (56%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.

  4. Age-related Macular Degeneration splits between interventional and observational designs.

    48 interventional and 27 observational studies make up this index (64% interventional). Study type is sponsor-reported on ClinicalTrials.gov.
