Abstract:
|
To assess the comparability of test and reference products, Mielke et al. (2019) proposed a statistical hypothesis testing procedure based on a quality range approach under the normality assumption of the quality measurements. They proposed to test the probability that the quality measures of the test product fall outside the quality range of the reference product. The test product is claimed to be comparable to the reference product if the difference in the probabilities outside the range determined by the reference quantiles is no more than a pre-specified comparable margin. There are statistical issues with the approach of Mielke et al. (2019). One of them is that the quality range is assessed by the asymptotic method, which leads to an underestimate of the range and the over-conservative method of the test. In this talk, we discuss alternative approaches to determine the quality range. These approaches include correcting the reference interval coverage so that the resulting interval gives 95% confidence and computing the reference quality range as tolerance limits. The proposed approaches can control the Type I error rate and have asymptotic powers of 1.
