The registry lists 557 studies for Pancreatitis across more than 10 countries. 164 are recruiting or about to start. 405 of them are mainly about Pancreatitis (how this is decided).

ClinicalTrials.gov finds 920 studies for Pancreatitis. How that becomes 557 here
This page counts the studies the registry files under Pancreatitis, and those it files under no condition that list Pancreatitisthemselves. 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
- 920Found by its condition searchIt reads the conditions a study lists and their synonyms, and also titles and keywords.
- −276Filed under a narrower condition, counted on its own pagePancreatitis, Chronic 212 · Pancreatitis, Acute Necrotizing 43 · Autoimmune Pancreatitis 18
- −28List Pancreatitis as a condition, but the registry did not file them under itMost often written as “Hereditary Pancreatitis” (6), “Biliary Pancreatitis” (3), and “Post-ERCP Acute Pancreatitis” (3). The registry filed them under other conditions only, most often Cholecystitis (7) and Hereditary pancreatitis (6).

How long Pancreatitis studies take
Of 22 phase 2 interventional studies under Pancreatitis, half reached primary completion within 31 months of starting, counting those still running.
| Start to primary completion | Every sponsor | Industry | Non-industry |
|---|---|---|---|
| Phase 2 | 31 mo16–110 · 22 studies | — | — |
| Interventional, no phase | 32 mo23–59 · 94 studies | — | 32 mo23–59 · 91 studies |
| Observational | 50 mo21–133 · 86 studies | — | 50 mo23–133 · 82 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
