Hi Kumar,

❝ can you please guide me how you have calculated the power above so that from next time I can do this exercise for two stage design.


My simulations were done in R using package PowerTOST. Set up the frame­work (decision scheme, alphas in both stages, acceptance rule) and generate N BE-studies of n1 sample sizes with the expected CV. For Potvin use a T/R-ratio of 1.25 (for alpha) or 0.95 (for power). Simulate N=106 studies for alpha (slow convergence) and at least N=105 studies for power. Number of studies passing / N at 1.25 = empiric alpha and at 0.95 = empiric power.
Depending on your CPU and programming skills expect run-times of 15 seconds up to one day for 106 sim’s. :-D

To propose that poor design can be corrected by subtle analysis techniques
is contrary to good scientific thinking.    Stuart J. Pocock
