ICON Releases NONMEM 7.2
ICON
announced the release of a new version of NONMEM, ICON’s non-linear, mixed effects modeling tool for Population Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) data analysis.
One year following the release of NONMEM® 7, which included a new suite of statistical methods to support more complex models for analysing Population PK/PD data and a more comprehensive range of classical estimation methods, ICON has released NONMEM® 7.2, which includes the following enhancements:
- Parallel computing of a single problem over multiple cores or computers, significantly reducing completion time.
- Dynamic memory allocation according to problem size, eliminating the need to recompile the NONMEM® program for unusually large problems. User may override program generated suggested values using a statement in the control stream.
- Other improvements include control stream files that may be written in mixed case, added flexibility in the input and output of variance matrix parameters, XML markup version of the NONMEM® report file, as well as features to facilitate stochastic differential equations (SDE).

Patient Engagement Platform Checklist
November 22nd 2024Modern clinical trials are more complex than ever, and one significant reason is the increased focus on patient engagement. Incorporating a patient engagement platform into your clinical trial enhances the patient experience and can lead to more successful trials with stronger, more reliable outcomes. We put together this helpful checklist of key features to look out for when choosing a platform for your study.
The Rise of Predictive Engagement Tools in Clinical Trials
November 22nd 2024Patient attrition can be a significant barrier to the success of a randomized controlled trial (RCT). Today, with the help of AI-powered predictive engagement tools, clinical study managers are finding ways to proactively reduce attrition rates in RCTs, and increase the effectiveness of their trial. In this guide, we look at the role AI-powered patient engagement tools play in clinical research, from the problems they’re being used to solve to the areas and indications in which they’re being deployed.
