Key findings

What ClinicalTrials.gov does not surface for Tourette Syndrome 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. Tourette Syndrome is recruiting below its size-band peers.

    10 of 34 indexed trials (29.4%) 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 Tourette Syndrome trials is spread across many organizations.

    Vanderbilt University Medical Center accounts for 5 of 34 trials (14.7%). 20 distinct sponsors appear on at least one study for this condition label.

  3. Most Tourette Syndrome trials plan to enrol fewer than 100 people.

    Median target enrolment is 54 among the 34 trials that report a genuine target (sentinel values excluded). 22 of those (64.7%) plan for fewer than 100 participants.

  4. Tourette Syndrome research is mostly interventional.

    24 interventional and 10 observational studies make up this index (70.6% interventional). Study type is sponsor-reported on ClinicalTrials.gov.
