Update Release Notes

This page lists the changes that have been made to PASS 2025 since it was released.

Version: 25.0.3

Released: July 11, 2025

1. Corrected a display issue with the Procedure Window. In some cases when the Procedure Window was scrolled, changing an option in a dropdown box would cause the window inputs to misalign and appear crammed at the top of the window. This has been corrected.

2. Corrected an error in Logrank Tests with Non-Proportional Hazards (Lakatos and Wu), Weighted Logrank Tests with Non-Proportional Hazards (Lakatos and Wu), and Logrank Tests with Proportional Hazards (Freedman and Wu). In all three procedures, when the hazard ratio was greater than 1, the power was computed incorrectly, resulting in no output when solving for sample size.

Version: 25.0.2

Released: March 10, 2025

1. Corrected an error in the Tests for Two Groups using the Win-Ratio Composite Endpoint procedure. When solving for sample size with Group Allocation set to "Enter N1, solve for N2", the resulting group sample size (N2) was too large. This has been corrected.

2. Corrected an error that caused Message Boxes to appear behind other windows in some cases, so that they could not be seen.

Version: 25.0.1

Released: January 20, 2025

1. Initial Release of PASS 2025

"I have been using NCSS for almost 20 years. I absolutely love it. It does everything [I need that] SPSS or SAS does, is more reasonably priced and user friendly and has wonderful customer support. If you have a problem, when you call a real person (who created the software) gently talks you through it. It is a great product and a great company."

Cheryl L. Meyer, PhD, Wright State University

"I really love this version of NCSS and as teacher and researcher in a medical field I can say there aren't many things I miss in it... The help system is another strong feature; the transformations interface is one of my favorites as well."

Dr. Adrian Buzea
