Key findings

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

    51 of 133 indexed trials (38.3%) are open to enrollment, against a 37.1% average across 139 conditions with 100+ trials. The peer set uses the same ClinicalTrials.gov-derived counts as this page.

  2. Sponsorship of Inflammation trials is spread across many organizations.

    Massachusetts General Hospital accounts for 6 of 133 trials (4.5%). 95 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Most Inflammation trials plan to enrol fewer than 100 people.

    Median target enrolment is 64 among the 133 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 85 of those (63.9%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.

  4. Inflammation research is mostly interventional.

    107 interventional and 26 observational studies make up this index (80.5% interventional). Study type is sponsor-reported on ClinicalTrials.gov.
