Data are assumed to come from two independent binomial distributions and the parameter of interest is , where and are two independent proportions. The optimal size is obtained by maximizing the expected net benefit function, which is the expected benefit from subsequent use of the new treatment minus the cost of the tria}, keywords = {Bayesian Approach,Binomial Distribution,Clinical trials,Expected Net Benefit,Sample size determination}, title_fa = {-}, abstract_fa = {}, keywords_fa = {}, url = {https://iijs.ut.ac.ir/article_30832.html}, eprint = {https://iijs.ut.ac.ir/article_30832_846b59db06046ad679a5d34f4daccaaa.pdf} }
