Macroscopic dynamics of cancer growth

SA Menchón, CA Condat - The European Physical Journal Special Topics, 2007 - Springer
Macroscopic modeling is used to describe various aspects of cancer growth. A recently
proposed “dysnamical exponent” hypothesis is critically examined in the context of the …

Mathematical model of cancer growth controled by metronomic chemotherapies

N Andre, D Barbolosi, F Billy, G Chapuisat… - ESAIM …, 2013 - esaim-proc.org
We propose in this article to compare the efficiency of two chemotherapeutic schedules: the
traditional and the metronomic. For this, we develop a new mathematical model describing …

Maximization of viability time in a mathematical model of cancer therapy

A Bratus, I Samokhin, I Yegorov, D Yurchenko - Mathematical biosciences, 2017 - Elsevier
In this paper, we study a dynamic optimization problem for a general nonlinear mathematical
model for therapy of a lethal form of cancer. The model describes how the populations of …

A mathematical model for the dynamics of cancer hepatocytes under therapeutic actions

M Delitala, T Lorenzi - Journal of theoretical biology, 2012 - Elsevier
This paper deals with the development of a mathematical model for the in vitro dynamics of
malignant hepatocytes exposed to anti-cancer therapies. The model consists of a set of …

Nonequilibrium population dynamics of phenotype conversion of cancer cells

JX Zhou, AO Pisco, H Qian, S Huang - PloS one, 2014 - journals.plos.org
