EMA crippled method - R peculiarities [RSABE / ABEL]
❝ Did you just mean to prune away everything related to T1 and T2 and then run an analysis*?
Exactly. This is what the EMA wants us to do. At least in the context of calculation of the intra-subject variability for the reference.
But also in the evaluation of 3-treatment-3-period or 4-treatment-4-period they request in the same spirit " ... In studies with more than two treatment arms (e.g. a three period study including two references, one from EU and another from USA, or a four period study including test and reference in fed and fasted states), the analysis for each comparison should be conducted excluding the data from the treatments that are not relevant for the comparison in question."
❝ It becomes more and more unclear to me what you actually wish to accomplish. I still haven't got the faintest clue why you wish to evaluate Ref against itself.
Simple Answer: Someone (my boss, my sponsor, my spouse, a NLYW ...) has placed an order to me to do it. And I have to respond under threat of punishment
.❝ If you use drop1(C, test="F") to get type III SS then you get basically the anova you pasted above. But we are only interested in the effect estimates not the source of variation, and the residual stays the same. So forget the type III SS approach - it is not necessary.
This may be true. But my SAS code tells me further that the difference R1-R2 (and the 90% CI) is not estimable!
And it seems not only a type III issue and not a SAS phenomenon:
(PKdata contains the data for Reference only, factors created prior to lm() call.)
# Anders order of effects
> model1 <- lm(log(Cmax) ~ 0 + tmt2 + subject + period + sequence, PKdata)
> anova(model1) # type I sum of squares

Sequence gone! tmt2 vanished (coef() for tmt2R2=NA)!Note the varying df's for period!
The same happens in models with intercept. Weird I think. The same strong dependence on the order of the effects I had noted already in this post.
Ways out? Abandon EMA's crippled method?Regards,
