[NMusers] Simulo: a new service for drug trial simulation

2015-06-23 Thread Faelens, Ruben (Belgium)
Dear NONMEM users, We all know how difficult it is to simulate full drug trials using NONMEM. It is often necessary to generate the full dosing scheme(s) beforehand, and response-based dose adaptation requires iteratively rerunning your model until you have the results you are happy with. At S

Actually, nonmem can be used to simulate the response-based dose adaptation without iteratively rerunning your model, with single simulation (using $ABB COMRES functionality to pass simulated response to the dose-adjustment algorithm code), although it is indeed cumbersome Leonid

Hi, In many cases you don't even need to use $ABB COMRES to do response-adaptive designs, simulated response could just impact a bioavailability term (Fx) of the next dose(s) to indicate dose change. I'm sure that more complex response-adaptive designs could benefit from a dedicated software th

Does anyone have an example of using Fn (bioavailability of compartment n) to do adaptive dosing simulations? I am not having much luck getting it to work. Mike Michael J. Fossler, Pharm. D., Ph. D., F.C.P. VP, Quantitative Sciences Trevena, Inc mfoss...@trevenainc.com Office: 610-354-8840, ext.

This is a very basic code that will reduce bioavailability in half if some PD effect (the output of the model) drops below 100 $ABB COMRES=1 ; space to save simulated PD $PK IF(NEWIND.LT.2) COM(1)=0 ; for each subject, COM(1) starts from zero F1 = 1 IF(COM(1).EQ.1) F1=0.5 ; if COM(1
