7 Release Notes

7.1 PUBLIC Version of IQR Tools

The versioned versions that are listed below are used internally at IntiQuan. From time to time a public version of IQR Tools is released and made available for download and installation. For information on how to install it, have a look in the installation section further up this book. The source code of the latest public IQR Tools release is always available here: https://iqrtools.intiquan.com/rrepo/src/contrib/IQRtools_99.0.0.tar.gz

7.2 V1.17.0 December, 2023

  • Making it fit for R 4.3.1 … you know … R is great … from now on >= R4.3.1
  • IQRloadCSVdata uses read.csv again instead of data.table.
  • “time” in Jacobian => ODE model also in MONOLIX.
  • plotETACOV_IQRnlmeProject() now also generates ETA vs. log(COV) plots
  • createDataVPC_IQRnlmeProject() removed in favor of vpc_IQRnlmeProject()
  • Smaller fixes

7.3 V1.16.0 July, 2023

  • NONMEM specific: PREDV possible to choose for evaluation and plotting in IQRnlmeProject(s). (algOpt.NONMEM.PRED = “PREDV”). This is especially useful in case of BLQ handling via M3 or M4 methods, where it is now enforced to be used (default setting if undefined, error message if defined not “PREDV”). In a similar manner also WRESV and RESV are determined and handled.
  • NONMEM specific: Reverted to THETArized error parameters instead of using SIGMAs in NONMEM
  • NONMEM specific: THETArized eror parameters set MUM to “N”
  • NONMEM specific: Added ETSTYPE=1 to $ESTIMATION for NONMEM to ensure ETA shrinkage is calculated by NONMEM only for subjects that have reasonable information. Note that shrinkage calculated by NONMEM is not used and displayed by IQR Tools!
  • NONMEM specific: Updated NONMEM options to default: TOL=9, SIGL=9, NSIG=SIGDIGITS=3 Define SIGL in $EST for all methods (incl EM, even if not used)
  • MONOLIX specific: Improvement of MLXTRAN export to allow MONOLIX analytic solution - in more cases than before.

7.4 V1.15.0 June, 2023
