Hi Angus,

short answer: Perform the analysis exactly as you have specified it in the protocol. :-D

OK, more serious now. I guess the reference treatment was in fasted state. If R was in period 3, bad luck – no test-ratios. For the FDA the standard setup is a mixed-effects model (also the default in PHX). Try to remove the subject – you should get the same results as if keeping him/her.
If you administered in period 3 one of the tests, keep him/her. You’ll loose one degree of freedom in the respective pairwise comparison (say T1/R), but still have the full set for the other (T2/R). Nothing to worry about.
