I was just reading the new CHMP guidance on Pop PK Reports. The guidance recommends including
the final structural and covariate model from NONMEM (control stream and listing) as an appendix.
It makes no mention of interim models. So this got me thinking (which can be a bad thing in
itself) that in my current pop pk reports, I include every model referenced in the report during
model development. Granted this leads to reports that are 1000s of pages long, but every number
in the text can be verified by a QC person. So this got me asking myself, what do other companies
do? If you don't include the nonmem listing as an appendix and in your text you state that the
OFV was X, then how do you reference that number? I'm just curious what others are doing these
days?
Thanks,
