 sample size calculation by WinNonLin [Software]

Dear Sir,

I have done NCA modeling followed by Bioequivalence testing in WinNonLin software. What are the different parameter from the WinNonLin bioequivalence output can be used for the calculation of sample size for a pivotal study or is it possible to get sample size output from WinNonLin.

Best Regards

Dear Manoj!

❝ What are the different parameter from the WinNonLin bioequivalence output

❝ can be used for the calculation of sample size for a pivotal study [...]



You need CVintra and the point estimate (PE).
In WinNonlin's terminology:
    Intrasubject CV and Ratio(%Ref)
For a 2×2 design CVintra is directly given in the output (example in this post), for a William's design (more than two treatments, unreplicated) you have to calculate it manually from the residual variance (example in this post).

❝ [...] or is it possible to get sample size output from WinNonLin.


No. You will have to use tables, approximations or specialized software. Please search the forum for further informations.

Dear Helmut,

Thanks for prompt reply.

Can you please give me the reference of table from where i can calculate the sample size on basis of intrasubject CV and Ratio (%Ref).

Best Regards

 Reference for sample size calculation

Dear Manoj!

❝ Can you please give me the reference of table from where i can calculate the sample size on basis of intrasubject CV and Ratio (%Ref).


Please do your homework first. Yesterday I asked you to use the search feature of the forum (the reference is given in result #15); refining the search for the terms "sample size estimation table" it's in result #3... ;-)
