Sequential Testing in Clinical Trials with Repeated Measurements
具有重复测量的临床试验序贯检验
In some clinical trials, the number of subjects on each treatment is fixed and at successive equally-spaced time points each subject yields a measurement which reflects response to treatment. A model is presented for such repeated measurements data. A sequential procedure is proposed for testing the null hypothesis of no difference in mean effect between two treatments. In this procedure, the maximum number of measurements per subject and absorption probabilities for…
