Chiaying,

Your concentration-time profiles seem to suggest that there’s an absorption 
phase which was not accounted for in your model/control stream.  What was the 
route of administration?

Subject: [NMusers] two compartment with nonlinear elimination

Dear NMusers,
I'm a NM beginner modeling for a monoclonal antibody. Below is 12 subjects's 
individual predicted plot , it seems that nonlinear elimination 
(Michaelis-Menten) model can fit the data well. However, when running the 
control stream (two compartment models with linear and non-linear elimination), 
the resulting Q THETA SE% and OMEGA SE% are quite large even thought successful 
minimization.From  the Correlation Matrix , I find that THETA (1) (VMAX) and 
THETA(2) (KM)are highly correlated (9.67E-01). Another problem is the .fit file 
can't be produced.

I have tried various error models and initial estimations, however, none had 
better improvement and often got error message (error 134 or parameter estimate 
is near its boundary). Does re-parameterization helpful ? or need to change to 
other models?

Any suggestions for solving the problems are highly appreciated.

(control stream will be send in another e-mail)
