Degree of overestimation of the true failure rate provided by an ITT analysis where all patients failing to complete the trial satisfactorily are considered as "treatment failures". Overestimation is calculated as a ratio of estimated failure rate using the ITT approach to the true failure rate. When true cure rates are low (i.e. less than 10% – vertical dotted line) the overestimation is considerable.
