Hi All,

As my statistics background is rather poor (shame on me) I can't understand purpose of pooled CV in BE-studies.

Unless I am mistaken this parameters should be calculated when there are several studies with different CVs and we need "adequate" CV (correct? :confused:).

But what prevents us from using the highest CV for sample size calculation?
Any ambushes there? :-)

Pharmacokinetics may be simply defined as
what the body does to the drug,
as opposed to pharmacodynamics, which may be defined as
what the drug does to the body.    Leslie Z. Benet
