Hi John

❝ Where do you get page 3? I only see page 2. Is your link correct or I am still sleeping here in the east coast USA? The document I read is dated "Finalized Sep 2009, Revised Dec 2012"


Looks like you need a cup of strong black coffee.
I was mentioning about page 3 of warfarin sodium guideline.


❝ FDA wants you to compare the intrasubject variation between test and reference which full replicate will give. Reason is that the difference needs to be minimal since the product is a NTI.


Just a thought, What if the variability in the reference product is higher than test? ;-)


❝ If a parameter passes ABE, it should pass SABE correct? Okay it doesn't necessary work the other way around. But in this case, since the intrasubject variability is less than 30% (as per FDA's info on the guidance), a properly powered study with an acceptable test formulation should have no issue passing both correct?


I totally agree to what helmut said

For any CVWR <21.42% the acceptance range will be narrower than 80–125%. In other words, the test might pass ABE but fail rSABE.


I tried using FARTSSIE 17 to do some random calculations

Assuming Desired Power  80%   
alpha                    5%
intra-subject CV (ISV)   20.0%
Expected mT/mR Ratio     95%-105
Lower Equivalence Limit  90.0%
Upper Equivalence Limit 111.1%
sw                        0.1980422
n                       168
n-2                     166
t(1-alpha,n-2)            1.654084714
tau2                     -7.249747184
tau1                      2.502165029
Probt(2)                  0.999999988
Probt(1)                  0.198471525
1-b                       0.801528462

Required Sample Size   168


For A full replicate study

Assuming Desired Power     80%
alpha                       5%
intra-subject CV (ISV)     20%
Expected mT/mR Ratio (%)   95%-105
Lower Equivalence Limit    90.00%
Upper Equivalence Limit   111.00%
k (= sb2 / sw2)             1
sWR                         0.1980422
n                         168
n-2                       166
t(1-alpha,n-2)              1.654084714
tau2                       -7.203445249
tau1                        2.502165029
Probt(2)                    0.999999984
Probt(1)                    0.198471525
1-b                         0.801528458
   
Required Sample Size   84


Also remember
a) higher blood loss
b) higher drop outs
c) prolonged study durations ( 3 wash out periods of 21 days)
