Description
Discover the Latest Statistical Approaches for Modeling Exposure-Response Relationships. Written by an applied statistician with extensive practical experience in drug development, this book explores a wide range of topics in exposure-response modeling, from traditional PKPD modeling to other areas in drug development and beyond. It incorporates numerous examples and software programs for implementing novel methods. The book emphasizes dose adjustment and treatment adaptation based on dynamic exposure-response models, illustrates how to apply causal inference to exposure-response modeling in pharmacometrics and epidemiology, and links exposure-response modeling to clinical decision making through model-based decision analysis.
Reviews / Votes
"...the book is worth reading as it takes the reader all the way from basic to state-of-the-art exposure-response modeling approaches and challenges. It focuses on detailed mathematical derivations, with many insights based on practical experience. Moreover, many data examples are accompanied by software code ..."~Biometrical Journal
" . . . the greatest strength of this book is that the models and methodologies are always motivated and explained by applications and examples, which effectively communicates to readers the basic ideas behind complex methodologies. Also, practical implementation and computer code are discussed alongside the methods, which will help readers to apply the methods to their own data."
~University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston
"In summary, this book provides a good overview of various scenarios of ER relationship assessment and modelling, and the appropriate statistical approaches. With a lot of hints and tips and numeric examples that illustrate various aspects it is easy to read for both statisticians and nonstatisticians; the numerous programming code examples also make the book notably expedient."
~Dirk Lindner, ISCB
