Abstract:
|
Adverse events (AEs) occur in preclinical and clinical trials. Understanding the relationship between a drug's Pharmacokinetic (PK) profile and AEs is crucial to finding the maximum tolerated dose and clinical dose in drug development. One question often asked during dose finding is whether a plateau in the incidence of AEs has been reached at a dose or plasma concentration level. However, commonly used logistic regression models are not capable of addressing this question. For this reason, nonlinear models are proposed to model the PK/AE relationships. Log odds ratio, which is a function of plasma concentration in these nonlinear models, is studied and a testing procedure for plateau hypothesis is constructed based on simultaneous confidence band for the log odds ratio curve. An example is used to illustrate the model fitting and testing procedure.
