Abstract
This paper discusses different approaches for dealing with clinical trials with a repeated binary endpoint, where many of the binary outcomes are likely to be missing. Ad hoc tests of means and their rank analogues are discussed as well as combination tests, simple imputation, and model-based approaches. The procedures are illustrated with an example of a clinical trial in opiate-dependent individuals.
