Key findings

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

    41 of 93 indexed trials (44.1%) 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. Sponsorship of Suicide trials is spread across many organizations.

    VA Office of Research and Development accounts for 7 of 93 trials (7.5%). 57 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Typical Suicide enrolment sits around 103 participants.

    Median target enrolment is 103 among the 93 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 43 of those (46.2%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.

  4. Suicide research is mostly interventional.

    89 interventional and 4 observational studies make up this index (95.7% interventional). Study type is sponsor-reported on ClinicalTrials.gov.
