Dear all
If I want to calculate sample size based on a pilot study and if the pilot study Test/Reference ratio is more than 5%, for e.g Mean T/R=112%, can i include the same in my sample size calculation for pivotal study (contradictory to a null ratio of 0.95 or 1.00 which is being routinely applied in sample size calculation)?
Will this be acceptable from regulatory point of view?
