Power simulation in three scenarios. The power (%) of our model to detect significant interactions depending on the initial parameters are shown. Three sets of estimated initial parameters corresponding to the model estimates from the pairs of RH5/AMA1-RON2L (a), CyRPA/RIPR (b), and RH5/RH4 (c, *data from Williams et al.26). (a) has an interaction effect of close to zero, ( − 0.06), (b) has a modest synergy effect ( 0.25), and (c) has a large synergy effect ( 36). The x-axis is the number of concentrations for one of the antibodies tested in an assay. For example, grid of 3 means each antibody is tested at 3 different concentrations, totaling 3 × 3 = 9 conditions per assay. The y-axis is the number of times to repeat the assay.
