Abstract

MM stochastic control of dosage regimens permits essentially full use of information, either in a population pharmacokinetic model or a Bayesian updated MM parameter set, to achieve and maintain selected therapeutic goals with optimal precision. The regimens are visibly more precise than those developed using mean parameter values. Bayesian MM feedback has now also been implemented.
