Started Apr 2023 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Jun 2023, 2 months after the start.
Of 38 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Bell Palsy, half reached primary completion within 9 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 3 and three quarters within 25. This study's planned 2 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 40 studies reached it within 10 months; a quarter within 3 and three quarters within 21.
