Key findings

What ClinicalTrials.gov does not surface for Glaucoma 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. Glaucoma recruits in line with its size-band peers.

    39 of 94 indexed trials (41.5%) 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 Glaucoma trials is spread across many organizations.

    Stanford University accounts for 8 of 94 trials (8.5%). 56 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Typical Glaucoma enrolment sits around 92 participants.

    Median target enrolment is 92 among the 93 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 48 of those (51.6%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.

  4. Glaucoma research is mostly interventional.

    71 interventional and 23 observational studies make up this index (75.5% interventional). Study type is sponsor-reported on ClinicalTrials.gov.
