Table 3 Probability of incorrectly declaring bioequivalence (%) for pivotal trials analyzed using the proposed method. Pilot data are simulated based on scenario 5 wherein GMR = 1.0, while pivotal data are simulated under six additional cases that feature GMR =0.5, 0.7, 0.8, 1.25, 1.43, 2.0, respectively
