Key findings

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

    47 of 117 indexed trials (40.2%) 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 Metastatic Cancer trials is spread across many organizations.

    Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center accounts for 11 of 117 trials (9.4%). 80 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Most Metastatic Cancer trials plan to enrol fewer than 100 people.

    Median target enrolment is 54 among the 110 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 70 of those (63.6%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.

  4. Metastatic Cancer research is mostly interventional.

    108 interventional and 9 observational studies make up this index (92.3% interventional). Study type is sponsor-reported on ClinicalTrials.gov.
