Dose-Response Analysis Examples

See how researchers across healthcare use Sourcetable for critical dose-response studies

Drug Efficacy Studies

A pharmaceutical research team analyzed dose-response data for a novel cardiac medication. Using Sourcetable, they quickly determined that the compound showed a sigmoidal response with an ED50 of 2.3 μM (95% CI: 1.8-2.9), allowing them to proceed to the next development phase with confidence in the optimal dosing range.

Toxicology Screening

Environmental health researchers needed to assess the cytotoxic effects of industrial compounds at various concentrations. Sourcetable's AI identified a steep dose-response curve with an IC50 of 15.7 mg/L, revealing the compound's narrow safety margin and informing regulatory recommendations.

Clinical Trial Optimization

A clinical research organization analyzing Phase II trial data for an oncology drug discovered an unexpected plateau effect at higher doses. Sourcetable's analysis revealed the optimal therapeutic window was 50-75% lower than initially projected, potentially saving millions in unnecessary high-dose studies.

Biomarker Validation

Diagnostic researchers testing a new biomarker assay used Sourcetable to analyze calibration curves across multiple concentration ranges. The analysis confirmed linear response in the clinically relevant range (R² = 0.998) with a detection limit of 0.5 ng/mL, validating the assay for clinical use.

Combination Therapy Analysis

Researchers studying drug synergism analyzed dose-response data for two-drug combinations. Sourcetable's multi-dimensional analysis revealed synergistic effects at specific concentration ratios, with combination indices below 0.7, guiding the design of more effective treatment protocols.

Vaccine Immunogenicity

A vaccine development team analyzed antibody responses across different vaccine doses in clinical trials. The analysis showed a clear dose-dependent response with plateau at 50 μg, helping optimize the vaccine formulation for maximum efficacy while minimizing production costs.

Advanced AI Capabilities for Dose-Response Analysis

Automatic Outlier Detection

AI identifies and flags potential outliers in your dose-response data, suggesting whether to exclude them based on statistical criteria and biological plausibility.

Model Comparison Assistant

Compare multiple dose-response models (4-parameter logistic, 3-parameter, Weibull, etc.) and get AI recommendations on the best fit for your specific dataset.

Confidence Interval Optimization

Automatically calculate and visualize confidence intervals using bootstrap methods or asymptotic approximations, ensuring robust statistical inference.

Frequently Asked Questions

What dose-response models does Sourcetable support?

Sourcetable supports all standard dose-response models including 4-parameter logistic (Hill equation), 3-parameter logistic, Weibull, log-normal, and linear models. Our AI automatically selects the best-fitting model based on your data characteristics, and you can also specify custom models if needed.

Can I analyze multiple dose-response curves simultaneously?

Yes! Sourcetable excels at multi-curve analysis. You can compare dose-response relationships across different compounds, treatment groups, or experimental conditions. The platform automatically calculates relative potencies and generates comparative visualizations.

How does Sourcetable handle replicate data and error calculations?

Sourcetable automatically recognizes replicate measurements and calculates appropriate summary statistics (mean, SEM, SD). Error propagation through parameter estimates is handled using advanced statistical methods, providing accurate confidence intervals for ED50, IC50, and other key parameters.

Is the analysis suitable for regulatory submissions?

Absolutely. Sourcetable's dose-response analysis follows FDA and EMA guidelines for bioanalytical method validation. All calculations are fully documented, and results include comprehensive statistical validation metrics required for regulatory submissions.

Can I export results for publication?

Yes, Sourcetable generates publication-ready figures and comprehensive analysis reports. You can export high-resolution graphs, statistical tables, and detailed methodology descriptions directly into your manuscripts or presentations.

What file formats can I import for dose-response data?

Sourcetable accepts virtually any data format including Excel (.xlsx, .xls), CSV, TSV, and direct imports from laboratory instruments. The platform automatically detects dose and response columns and handles unit conversions.

How accurate are the AI-generated statistical analyses?

Sourcetable's AI uses validated statistical algorithms equivalent to those in specialized pharmacology software like GraphPad Prism or SigmaPlot. All methods are peer-reviewed and regularly validated against known datasets to ensure accuracy and reliability.

Can I customize the dose-response curve fitting parameters?

Yes, while our AI provides intelligent defaults, you have full control over fitting parameters, constraints, and weighting schemes. You can specify custom starting values, parameter bounds, and optimization criteria as needed for your specific analysis requirements.
