Abstract

In comparing two treatments in a clinical trial, suppose that patients are assigned sequentially to treatments by a restricted randomization rule. Exact and approximate confidence intervals for treatment difference are derived without assuming that the study subjects were obtained by random sampling from a well-defined population. We show that, if there is a time trend among the responses of study subjects, one should not ignore the design in the analysis. All the procedures are illustrated with a real-life example.
