Dear all,

in

Saranadasa, Krishnamoorthy
"A multivariate test for similarity of two dissolution profiles"
J. Biopharm. Stat. 15: 265-278, 2005


the authors describe a test for the comparison of drug dissolution profiles which is - in the eyes of the authors - more powerful then others, like similarity factor f2, IUT test ...

This test uses the variance-covariance matrix and therefore needs the individual values of %dissolved. But in the examples given in the paper I found only means and SD for the measurement time points.
Thus I couldn't recalculate the authors values for their new delta statistic if I understand their formulas (many matrices in there :cool:) some days.

My question: Has anybody examples of the application of this test with all necessary data? Is there any code (SAS, R or whatever) out there?

Regards,

Detlew
