Aaaaaaah,

finally got a little crack in the coconut.
Google was my friend but it was hard work: Check this out.

Anyone got the Philips paper from 1990?


Edit half an hour later:
Using the world's best package for power calculation known as power.TOST:

cv=sqrt(exp(0.1003) - 1.0)
sampleN.TOST(CV=cv, theta0=1.1, targetpower=.95)


+++++++++++ Equivalence test - TOST +++++++++++
            Sample size estimation
-----------------------------------------------
Study design:  2x2 crossover
log-transformed data (multiplicative model)

alpha = 0.05, target power = 0.95
BE margins        = 0.8 ... 1.25
Null (true) ratio = 1.1,  CV = 0.3248115

Sample size (total)
 n     power
136   0.952220


Had a moment of panic as the numbers apparently didn't match, but they do. Example 3 gave 68 subjects per sequence or 136 in total. Me likey. Gosh I am such a jerk.

Pass or fail!
