Statistical Analysis 1 for AUC0-t - Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Time of Last Non-zero Concentration (Per Participant) - Carvedilol in Plasma
Groups [1] All groups
Non-Inferiority/Equivalence Test [2] Yes
Test/Ref Ratio of LS Means x 100 [3] 96.36
90% Confidence Interval ( 90.20 to 102.93 )
[1] Additional details about the analysis, such as null hypothesis and power calculation:
  No text entered.
[2] Details of power calculation, definition of non-inferiority margin, and other key parameters:
  Using GLM procedures in SAS, analysis of variance (ANOVA)was performed on log-transformed AUC0-t, AUC0-inf and Cmax at the significance level of 0.05.
[3] Other relevant estimation information:
  Bioequivalence is established when 90% Confidence Interval falls within 80 - 125

Certain Agreements:  
Principal Investigators are NOT employed by the organization sponsoring the study.
There IS an agreement between Principal Investigators and the Sponsor (or its agents) that restricts the PI's rights to discuss or publish trial results after the trial is completed.
The agreement is:
unchecked The only disclosure restriction on the PI is that the sponsor can review results communications prior to public release and can embargo communications regarding trial results for a period that is less than or equal to 60 days. The sponsor cannot require changes to the communication and cannot extend the embargo.
unchecked The only disclosure restriction on the PI is that the sponsor can review results communications prior to public release and can embargo communications regarding trial results for a period that is more than 60 days but less than or equal to 180 days. The sponsor cannot require changes to the communication and cannot extend the embargo.


Limitations and Caveats
Limitations of the study, such as early termination leading to small numbers of participants analyzed and technical problems with measurement leading to unreliable or uninterpretable data
