Dear Ace,

This is my second post replied to your previous post. In my first replied message, I said that the three examples (Ex. 01-03) that we tested before were all matched the data points picked by WinNonlin (WNL). Then we go further to test three more examples (Ex. 04-06) and we find that both your method and WNL may pick (Tmax, Cmax) to estimate lambdaz with Ex. 04 and Ex. 06. Please see the following results.

Looks like that your method and WNL are quite consistent in data point selection for estimation of lambdaz now. Question is that both methods still cannot absolutely rule out the data point of Cmax (e.g. Ex 04 and Ex. 06).

All the best,
