Key findings

What ClinicalTrials.gov does not surface for Chronic Migraine 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. Chronic Migraine is recruiting above its size-band peers.

    11 of 18 indexed trials (61.1%) are open to enrollment, against a 46.5% average across 27,806 conditions with fewer than 20 trials. The peer set uses the same ClinicalTrials.gov-derived counts as this page.

  2. Sponsorship of Chronic Migraine trials is spread across many organizations.

    Ipsen accounts for 2 of 18 trials (11.1%). 15 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Typical Chronic Migraine enrolment sits around 300 participants.

    Median target enrolment is 300 among the 18 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 7 of those (38.9%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.

  4. Chronic Migraine research is mostly interventional.

    16 interventional and 2 observational studies make up this index (88.9% interventional). Study type is sponsor-reported on ClinicalTrials.gov.
