ClinicalTrials.gov finds 5,294 studies for Anemia. How that becomes 1,810 here
This page counts the studies the registry files under Anemia, and those it files under no condition that list Anemiathemselves. Each study its search finds is placed by how the registry filed it and by the conditions it lists. ClinicalTrials.gov counts as of Nov 8, 2026. How condition pages count

How long Anemia studies take
Of 150 phase 3 interventional studies under Anemia, half reached primary completion within 30 months of starting, counting those still running.
| Start to primary completion | Every sponsor | Industry | Non-industry |
|---|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 | 12 mo3–43 · 48 studies | 6 mo3–30 · 34 studies | — |
| Phase 2 | 28 mo16–56 · 88 studies | 23 mo13–40 · 58 studies | — |

| Observational | 30 mo12–76 · 145 studies | — | 30 mo11–84 · 124 studies |
Each figure is the month by which half the studies had reached primary completion, with the range in which the middle half did. Studies still running count until their last registry update; studies that stopped early are left out. Phase 1 includes early phase 1; observational means prospective or not stated, as retrospective and cross-sectional studies date a window of data rather than a study. How these figures are worked out
