Dear Frieda,

❝ Due to a protocol violation in the second period of a two period cross-over BE study, the results of the second period cannot be used and this study period needs te be repeated. The violation did not present any safety hazard. The original second period is ongoing and has a long sampling interval post-dose.


My emphases. If you can’t use the data anyhow, why don’t you stop sampling at all?

I think that both of your options should be possible. Of course the first one is preferable. In any case be prepared to answer nasty questions about the protocol violation.

Most scientists today are devoid of ideas, full of fear, intent on
producing some paltry result so that they can add to the flood
of inane papers that now constitutes “scientific progress”
in many areas.    Paul Feyerabend
