A pharmaceutical company's pilot study (40 patients per group) detected a mean hospital stay reduction of 2 days (SD = 4 days) from a new drug. For the full trial, the company wants 80% power to detect a clinically meaningful effect of Δ=1.5\Delta = 1.5Δ=1.5 days at α=0.05\alpha = 0.05α=0.05. How will the required sample size in the full trial compare to the pilot?
