Analysis of binary data from a multicentre clinical trial
Department of Biostatistics, SC-32, University of Washington Seattle, Washington 98195, U.S.A.
We develop several methods for estimating the treatment effect difference defined as the overall log-odds ratio of favourable response in a multicentre clinical trial comparing two treatments with binary response. A simulation study compares the bias and mean squared error of the point estimates and the exact coverage probabilities of confidence intervals obtained distributions.
