Key findings

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

    26 of 77 indexed trials (33.8%) 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 Fibromyalgia trials is spread across many organizations.

    University of Michigan accounts for 6 of 77 trials (7.8%). 53 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Typical Fibromyalgia enrolment sits around 66 participants.

    Median target enrolment is 66 among the 77 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 44 of those (57.1%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.

  4. Fibromyalgia research is mostly interventional.

    68 interventional and 9 observational studies make up this index (88.3% interventional). Study type is sponsor-reported on ClinicalTrials.gov.
