Dear Shankar!

❝ One of our client want to conduct the bioavailability of particular drug

❝ with same volunteer in two different studies.


Yes, this happens from time to time.

❝ I think we may get pharmacokinetic pattern of two different formulations

❝ in same volunteers. I am not sure whether it's right or wrong.


Sure. If you want to compare between studies and the same subjects were attending, you may use a paired comparison (only fixed effects: subject+study+subject(study)).

❝ What else we can achieve this type of studies.


A lower variability than if different subjects would have been used (parallel design). In other words, if you calculate BA between studies your confidence intervals will be tighter - and your point estimates more reliable.
