How long Short Bowel Syndrome studies take

Of 27 phase 3 interventional studies under Short Bowel Syndrome, half reached primary completion within 37 months of starting, counting those still running.

Start to primary completionEvery sponsorIndustryNon-industry
Phase 337 mo24–46 · 27 studies36 mo20–45 · 26 studies—
Interventional, no phase22 mo19–59 · 24 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.
