Dear Siv, Jonathan, and Jakob, Thank you all for your wonderful and insightful replies; great to see the NONMEM forum alive and kicking 😊. Now I will try and implement to see if this solves my issues!

Dear Rik, There are very nice code examples (for NONMEM) in this poster-material from Nyberg et al.: https://www.page-meeting.org/pdf_assets/404-Poster_PAGE%20_2014_tte_sim_joakim_nyberg_with_code.pdf These include the log-normal distribution, as well as Gompertz and Weibull.

The lognormal model seems to provide a very nice fit; compared to a constant hazard, the hazard is suggested to be higher in the beginning and then significantly lower at later times. I have not seen any implementations online: does anyone know if the lognormal survival function can be implemented in NONMEM, and/or can anyone suggest alternative approaches? Some time-varying function to modify the hazard? Any and all suggestions appreciated! Kind regards, Rik Rik Schoemaker, PhD Occams Coöperatie U.A.
