SAMPSI_FLEMING: Stata module to compute exact sample size calculation for single-stage designs

Statistical Software Components from Boston College Department of Economics

Abstract: A single stage design requires all n patients to receive and experimental treatment. Within a specified time period they will be observed to have responded (success) or not (failure). The probability of a success in the trial is p and this is compared to a fixed value p0, which is the probability of a success when treatment is not given. The trial therefore tests the null hypothesis H0:p=p0 against the alternative hypothesis H1:p>p0. A particular value p1 (p1>p0) is considered to be the desired probability of success.
