                   PHARMACOKINETICS SOFTWARE CATALOGUE


        Title: Boomer and MultiForte

        Subject Area: Pharmacokinetics

        Description: Non-linear regression programs for the
        Macintosh and IBM PC. Weighted non-linear regression,
        simulations, Bayesian analysis, and Iteratively Reweighed
        Least Squares analyses are possible. In MultiForte models
        are specified by modifying model definition subroutines in
        FORTRAN. In Boomer the model is defined by the selection
        of parameters such as dose, first-order rate constant, volume
        etc. Integrated and differential equation type models are
        possible. Fitting algorithms include Gauss-Newton,
        Marquardt, and simplex. Numerical integration routines
        include Runge-Kutta, Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg, and Gears

        Title: ADAPT II

        Subject Area: Pharmacokinetics

        Description: Non-linear regression programs for the
        VAX/VMS, DOS, or SUN/UNIX. Models are specified using
        FORTRAN statements. Requires a FORTRAN compiler as each
        model is recompiled before use. Simulation can be error free
        of with noise or based on population values. Uses the LSODA
        method for numerical integration (which is suitable for non-
        stiff and stiff problems). The program will perform simplex
        optimization, maximum likelihood and Bayesian fitting or
        will develop optimal sampling designs.

        Subject Area: Pharmacokinetics

        Description: Computer prgram for fitting nonlinear mixed
        effects (statistical regression-type) models. These
        techniques are particularly useful where the data are
        population pharmacokinetic data and when there are few
        measurements from each subject and/or the variation between
        subjects is considerable.

        Hardware:  Computer capable of compiling FORTRAN77 code, but
        workstation, mainframe recommended.
