Optimal designs for dose-finding experiments in toxicity studies [PDF]
Bernoulli 2009, Vol. 15, No. 1, 124-145, 2009 We construct optimal designs for estimating fetal malformation rate, prenatal death rate and an overall toxicity index in a toxicology study under a broad range of model assumptions. We use Weibull distributions to model these rates and assume that the number of implants depend on the dose level.
