The dfmeta package includes meta-analysis approaches for Phase I dose finding early phases clinical trials in order to better suit requirements in terms of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the maximal dose regimem (MDR).

The 1st version of the package dfmeta is available on CRAN now and it will be loaded via

install.packages("dfmeta")
library(dfmeta)
