Key findings

What ClinicalTrials.gov does not surface for Substance-Related Disorders 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. Substance-Related Disorders is recruiting below its size-band peers.

    19 of 64 indexed trials (29.7%) 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. One sponsor concentrates Substance-Related Disorders research.

    National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) accounts for 10 of 64 trials (15.6%). 37 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Typical Substance-Related Disorders enrolment sits around 134 participants.

    Median target enrolment is 134 among the 59 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 25 of those (42.4%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.

  4. Substance-Related Disorders research is mostly interventional.

    62 interventional and 2 observational studies make up this index (96.9% interventional). Study type is sponsor-reported on ClinicalTrials.gov.
