Point and Interval Estimators of the Target Dose in Clinical Dose-Finding Studies with Active Control.

abstract：:A method is proposed for the estimation of drug or toxicity potencies using in vitro data. A typical experiment in cancer research is presented where cells from a tumor-derived cell line were deposited as fixed volumes in 12-well cell culture plates. After waiting for 72 hours (for further growth), the wells were expo...
