Pooled-adjacent-violators algorithm (PAVA) response rate in male (unfilled square) and female (filled square) patients. EC50 (95 % CI) values in male and female groups were 5.32 (4.45–6.20) and 3.75 (3.05–4.43) μg/ml, respectively, and corresponding EC95 (95 % CI) values were 5.93 (4.72–6.88) and 4.52 (3.02–5.70) μg/ml, respectively. Isotonic regression showed the EC50 value was significantly higher in the male group than in the female group
