Before proceeding with a full-scale BE, we do pilot or trial study to validate the bioanalytical method and optimize sampling time intervals. We would also want to assess the variability i.e. intra-subject that would help us determine the best sample size for the full-scale BE.

Can anyone suggest what should be the sample size for a pilot BE to obtain the above objectives. Thanks.
