Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameter estimates for models assuming ka to be 4.5, 3.09, 0.375 (left to right). Estimates are presented as mean (standard error) [Wald 95% confidence interval]. SNP is coded continuously as 1, 2, 3 for 0, 1, and 2 mutations, respectively. The ageij, albij, and hgbij represent covariates values for subject i at time j. CL and V are population PK parameters for clearance and volume of distribution in the base model. The ω CL and ω V are the between-subject variance components for clearance and volume of distribution, respectively, presented as %CV. The σprop and σadd represent the proportional and additive residual errors in the combined residual error model, presented as %CV and the standard deviation, respectively. The θs denote model parameters as typically used in statistical models.
