Key findings

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

    15 of 35 indexed trials (42.9%) 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 Gastroesophageal Reflux trials is spread across many organizations.

    Johns Hopkins University accounts for 3 of 35 trials (8.6%). 30 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Typical Gastroesophageal Reflux enrolment sits around 85 participants.

    Median target enrolment is 85 among the 34 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 19 of those (55.9%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.

  4. Gastroesophageal Reflux research is mostly interventional.

    25 interventional and 10 observational studies make up this index (71.4% interventional). Study type is sponsor-reported on ClinicalTrials.gov.
