I am assuming there is not much prior information about this covariate. If there is no drop in the unexplained variability, inspite of having a significant drop in OFV, the full model might not be of practical use (for example dose adjustment). But certainly it might be a signal to probe more into influential individuals/data points (Mats Karlsson performed some work on these lines). Another source of this happening could be that it is false-positive finding. Regards, Joga Gobburu Pharmacometrics CDER, FDA
