How this measure is built

Definition
Count of interventional drug or biologic studies in Alzheimer's disease whose start date falls in the period. The region is a site country: a study counts for every country where it lists a site, so regional counts overlap and do not sum to the global count.
Measure
One slice of Clinical trial starts ( basis: clinicaltrials gov registry, counting rule: by start date, form: count, segment: alz ) . Total number of clinical trials initiated during a given period. Region and period are columns on every record, not slices.
Limitations
Values are shown as published; StatOrigin does not revise, fill gaps or convert currencies.
Verification
Each value, unit, period and place was checked against its quote before publication. See the methodology and the corrections process.
