Abstract:

Bioassay is an experiment for estimating the potency of a drug material or biologic. It uses the reaction that follows its application to living matters. Indirect assays are based on comparison of dose-response dependencies of test substance and standard preparation. Similarity of shape of test and reference profiles, aka parallelism, is of critical importance in this type of assay. Different definitions of parallelism have been proposed. Their usefulness may be evaluated by their efficiency and appeal to practitioners. In this presentation we discuss the efficiency of the metric of parallelism implemented in STATLIA software.
