Hi G.C.,

please RTFM – the “Phoenix NLME 1.3 User’s Guide” in particular. See the two examples pp183–9 (pp191–7 of the PDF). Alternatively you can use one of WNL’s PD models (#101–108): In the Structure-tab   Set WNL  . Try it with the emax-dataset (Population fitting, default setup):

model     run option      EC50    Emax  
NLME Emax Naive pooled  49.4242  101.383
          FOCE ELS      49.3846  100.905
WNL 101   Naive pooled  49.4242  101.383
          FOCE ELS      49.3846  100.905

Here estimates are identical (generally they are at least very close). However, I prefer the genuine NLME-model (maximum likelihood instead of least squares). Use naïve pooling or FO only to get initial estimates (they are biased). Carry them over as starting values to one of the other engines.

If you have difficulties with the setup, I suggest to register at Certara’s forum. There you could upload your project-file for examination by people who get paid for that. :-D

To propose that poor design can be corrected by subtle analysis techniques
is contrary to good scientific thinking.    Stuart J. Pocock
