Key findings

What ClinicalTrials.gov does not surface for Periodontal Diseases 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.

    8 of 16 indexed trials (50%) are open to enrollment, against a 46.5% average across 27,806 conditions with fewer than 20 trials. The peer set uses the same ClinicalTrials.gov-derived counts as this page.

  2. Sponsorship of Periodontal Diseases trials is spread across many organizations.

    The Forsyth Institute accounts for 2 of 16 trials (12.5%). 13 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Typical Periodontal Diseases enrolment sits around 76 participants.

    Median target enrolment is 76 among the 16 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 9 of those (56.3%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.

  4. Periodontal Diseases research is mostly interventional.
