clinDR: Simulation and Analysis Tools for Clinical Dose Response Modeling

Bayesian and ML Emax model fitting, graphics and simulation for clinical dose response. The summary data from the dose response meta-analyses in Thomas, Sweeney, and Somayaji (2014) <doi:10.1080/19466315.2014.924876> and Thomas and Roy (2016) <doi:10.1080/19466315.2016.1256229> Wu, Banerjee, Jin, Menon, Martin, and Heatherington(2017) <doi:10.1177/0962280216684528> are included in the package. The prior distributions for the Bayesian analyses default to the posterior predictive distributions derived from these references.
