Randomization generation

[k2k]

Dear all

I want to generate a randomization for clinical study.

In that each subject is having 12 sites  (6 per/hand )(8 treated sites and 4 control(untreated) sites). 

All 12 sites should be randomize but 4 control sites should split equally in 2 arm that is (2 control+6 treated per hand ), so i generated randomization by using proc plan, but in that 4 control sites are not splitting equally in to two hands some times its coming 3 per hand and 1 per hand. so how to sort this issue.

pls guide me..

proc plan seed=254642;

factors subj=24 ORDERED  site=12;

treatments trt=12 random;

output out=abc 

               site cvals =('S1' 'S2' 'S3' 'S4' 'S5' 'S6' 'S7' 'S8' 'S9' 'S10' 'S11' 'S12') RANDOM

               trt cvals=('1' '2' '3' '4' '5' '6' '7' '8'  'UT' 'UT' 'UT' 'UT') RANDOM;

run;

proc transpose data= abc out=rand2 prefix=site;

by subj ;

var trt ;

run;

proc print data=rand2 (drop=_name_);

run;

[data_null__]

If the restriction is 2 control sites per hand I think you will need to include a factor for hand and site(hand).

proc plan seed=254642;
   factors subject=24 ordered hand=2 site=6 trt=1 of 12 perm / noprint;
   output out=plan1 trt nvals=(1 2 3 4 0 0 5 6 7 8 0 0);
   run;
   factors subject=24 ordered trt=8 random / noprint;
   output data=plan1 out=plan2;
   run;
   quit;

proc sort out=plan3;
   by subject hand site;
   run;
proc transpose data=plan3 out=rand2(drop=_name_) prefix=site;
   by subject hand;
   var trt;
   run;
proc print;
   by subject;
   id subject;
   run;
