2. Practical Optimal Experimental Design in Drug Development and Drug Treatment using Nonlinear Mixed Effects Models
Abstract : The cost of releasing a new drug on the market has increased rapidly in the last decade. The reasons for this increase vary with the drug, but the need to make correct decisions earlier in the drug development process and to maximize the information gained throughout the process is evident.
