Hi ElMaestro!

❝ "The terms to be used in the ANOVA model are usually sequence, subject within sequence, period and formulation. Fixed effects, rather than random effects, should be used for all terms."

❝ Implies no more mixed effect modeling?


See the comment-document (linked here, page 138):

One objective of the new guidance was to completely standardise the method of analysis. While mixed models are generally useful, for bioequivalence ANOVA is considered adequate. […] a mixed linear models approach would not be acceptable, and subjects with valid data for only one of the two treatments should be excluded. No change. The phrase "or equivalent parametric method" removed to make clear that we are insisting on ANOVA.

(my emphasis) I lost also in my comment on lines 500-501/574-576 (page 140, top) – and of course on nonparametrics (page 141, top). ANOVA only. Full stop.
