Which analysis is conducted only for the subset of the trial population who completed the study according to the protocol?

Intention-to-treat analysis
Per protocol analysis
Linear regression analysis
Equivalence trial analysis

The correct answer is: Per protocol analysis

Per protocol analysis is the only type of analysis conducted exclusively on participants who completed the study according to the protocol. Intention-to-treat analysis includes all participants regardless of adherence to the protocol. Linear regression analysis is a statistical method used to examine relationships between variables and is not specific to completed studies. Equivalence trial analysis is a type of clinical trial design, not an analysis method. Therefore, the only analysis option that fits the given context is per protocol analysis.
