This dataset, neurodeg_dose_df, is a data frame containing simulated longitudinal data from a Phase 2 clinical study of a potential treatment for a neurodegenerative disease. The disease state is assessed using a functional scale, where smaller values indicate more severe neurodeterioration. The primary goal of the drug is to slow disease progression, which is quantified through the linear slope of the functional scale over time. The dataset includes repeated measurements for multiple individuals across varying dose levels, allowing investigation of dose–response relationships in disease progression.
