Dear Priyanka!

❝ Dear Helmut,

Not interested in the opinion of other forum members?

❝ Generally we are considering study design as […] balanced […] study.


❝ Is it necessary to keep "balanced" in the study design because we are considering unequal sequences also for statistical analysis.


You should plan for a balanced design. If the study becomes imbalanced due to drop-outs, the statistical analysis will account for that (adjusted means instead of geometric means, or in SAS' terminology: least squares means).
