In nonlinear regression models, standard optimality functions for experimental designs usually depend on the unknown parameters. Locally optimal designs are not robust with respect to misspecifications of unknown parameters. They can be robustified by using a minimax approach. A comprehensive analysis of the goal function makes it possible to reduce the search space for the inner as well as the outer optimization. We present an efficient and reliable algorithm for calculating balanced equidistant C- and D-optimal minimax designs in a two-parameter logistic dose-response model, which is based on theoretical and empirical investigations of the considered goal functions.
