Abstract:The fraction retention non-inferiority hypothesis is often measured for the ratio of the effects of a new treatment to those of the control in medical research. However, the fraction retention non-inferiority test that the new treatment maintains the efficacy of control can be affected by the nuisance parameters. Herein, a heuristic procedure for testing the fraction retention non-inferiority hypothesis is proposed based on the generalized p-value (GPV) under normality assumption and heteroskedasticity.
