Description
Summary:This article deals with seven special issues related to the assumptions, applicability, and practical use of formulas for calculating power or sample size, respectively, for comparative clinical trials with time-to-event endpoints, with particular focus on the well-known Freedman and Schoenfeld methods. All problems addressed are illustrated by numerical examples, and recommendations are given on how to deal with them in the planning of clinical trials.
