Figure 1 shows a comparison of the dose response curves giving the TCP calculated with these different methods as a function of the total dose delivered in 2 Gy per fraction for a rapidly proliferating tumor ([T.sub.D] = 2 days) and a slowly proliferating tumor ([T.sub.D] = 14 days) with the same intrinsic sensitivity (S[F.sub.2] = 0.5).
Impact of dose and sensitivity heterogeneity on TCP
Because the majority of Daubert courts have rejected attempted use of a monotonic, linear non-threshold dose-response curve, a Daubert court should find that the EDC low dose theory and the corresponding use of a nonmonotonic, non-threshold dose response curve are at best only a working hypothesis.
The emerging battlefield: should the use of a nonmonotonic, non-threshold dose-response curve for alleged endocrine-disrupting chemicals survive a Daubert/Frye challenge?
In light of this information and the lack of a dose response curve for QTc interval prolongation, ziprasidone is even beginning to be utilized at doses between 160 and 320 mg/day, particularly in difficult cases.
