    Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center accounts for 12 of 140 trials (8.6%). 93 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Typical Metastatic Breast Cancer enrolment sits around 71 participants.

    Median target enrolment is 71 among the 140 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 78 of those (55.7%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.
