How long Self-Injurious Behavior studies take

Of 163 interventional studies with no phase under Self-Injurious Behavior, half reached primary completion within 28 months of starting, counting those still running.

Start to primary completion	Every sponsor	Industry	Non-industry
Interventional, no phase	28 mo15–52 · 163 studies	—	28 mo14–53 · 161 studies
Observational	66 mo30–84 · 19 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.
