Statistical Analysis 1 for AUC0-inf (Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity)
Groups [1] All groups
Non-Inferiority/Equivalence Test [2] Yes

[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:
  The pharmacokinetic parameters were evaluated statistically by an analysis of variance (ANOVA) appropriate for the experimental design of this study.
[3] Other relevant estimation information:
  Bioequivalence is established if the 90% confidence interval for the ln-transformed geometric mean between the reference and test product fall within the interval of 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
