Title: Sample Size Calculation for the Andersen-Gill Model Comparing Rates of Recurrent Events

Abstract:

Recurrent events arise frequently in biomedical research, where the subject may experience the same type of events more than once. The Andersen-Gill (AG) model has become increasingly popular in the analysis of recurrent events particularly when the event rate is not constant over time. We propose a procedure for calculating the power and sample size for the AG model in superiority, non-inferiority and equivalence clinical trials.
