Hi G.C.,

❝ Already I have registered Certara’s forum and sent same data but value does not matched with FDA guideline.


Please give a definition of “matching” – what did you expect to achieve? The FDA fitted only the means. Don’t know why you want to deal with a Population model. Below a comparison:

              Emax   ED50
FDA         -48.8    1.89
WNL 101     -39.811  1.143
PHX/NLME    -39.764  1.139
R/nls       -39.764  1.139
XLS/solver  -39.764  1.139
Gnumeric/NL -39.764  1.139

Do you see a pattern?

Given the close results obtained in other software, I would say you should not even try to “match” the FDA’s crappy results.

Nonlinear mixed-effects modeling… The recipe is a mixture of science, experience, luck, and art. The finished product sometimes is inedible. I think that the FDA’s results are crap. Not only the poor fit, but already the squeezed model. I’m able to come up with similar crap in PHX/NLME as well.

                Emax   ED50
Naive pooled  -39.765  1.139
FOCE L-B      -62.615  3.429

IMHO, with the given data (and an obsolete software nobody could explore) hoping for a “match” is futile.
