Abstract

This paper finds a limiting region for the number of subjects required and hence number of failed in screening test in multi-centric clinical trials. This situation follows a properly normalized independent vector sequences comprising of moving maxima (Ym k(n)) for m (>1) multi centric set up in clinical trials, where 1≤k(n)≤n. Results are given for bi-centric and multi-centric situations , under certain conditions on k(n) for p=∞ case.

Keywords

Almost sure limit set; Clinical trial; Moving maxima; Independent copies; Vector sequence.
