Dear Ohlbe!

❝ ❝ ❝ its possible to compare our study report with reference literature?

❝ ❝ Sure, but of limited value.

❝ On a PK and BE point of view, I would say the global CV has no value at all.


I did not mean a comparison of the CV but of the means. But you are right, Karthik likely meant CVs.

❝ But I've heard some regulators say that they have seen studies with a global CV which was surprisingly low (10 %, for AUC and Cmax). When inspected, the studies turned out to be totally invented, falsified... So on a regulatory point of view, the global CV and its comparison with other trials (including literature data) may provide some other level of information...


Absolutely. A CVtotal of 10% is not possible. Maybe for a bunch of monozygotic twins. Even then a very narrow BMI range must be observed. Should ring all alarm bells. BTW, twins (or even better clones) violate the assumption of independence of the statistical model. ;-)

To propose that poor design can be corrected by subtle analysis techniques
is contrary to good scientific thinking.    Stuart J. Pocock
