Key findings

What ClinicalTrials.gov does not surface for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome 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. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is recruiting below its size-band peers.

    8 of 22 indexed trials (36.4%) 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 Carpal Tunnel Syndrome trials is spread across many organizations.

    Sonex Health accounts for 2 of 22 trials (9.1%). 19 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Typical Carpal Tunnel Syndrome enrolment sits around 116 participants.

    Median target enrolment is 116 among the 22 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 10 of those (45.5%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.

  4. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome research is mostly interventional.

    17 interventional and 5 observational studies make up this index (77.3% interventional). Study type is sponsor-reported on ClinicalTrials.gov.
