Sample Size Calculation for an Individual Stepped-Wedge Randomized Trial
In the individual stepped-wedge randomized trial (ISW-RT), subjects are allocated to sequences, each sequence being defined by a control period followed by an experimental period. The total follow-up time is the same for all sequences, but the duration of the control and experimental periods varies among sequences. To our knowledge, there is no validated sample size calculation formula for ISW-RTs unlike stepped-wedge cluster randomized trials (SW-CRTs). The objective of this study was to adapt the formula used for SW-CRTs to the case of individual randomization and to validate this adaptation using a Monte Carlo simulation study. The proposed sample size calculation formula for an ISW-RT design yielded satisfactory empirical power for most scenarios except scenarios with operating characteristic values near the boundary (i.e., smallest possible number of periods, very high or very low autocorrelation coefficient). Overall, the results provide useful insights into the sample size calculation for ISW-RTs.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
