Hu2019 - Pancreatic cancer dynamics


ABSTRACT: The paper describes a model on the size of pancreatic tumour. Created by COPASI 4.25 (Build 207) This model is described in the article: Modeling Pancreatic Cancer Dynamics with Immunotherapy Xiaochuan Hu, Guoyi Ke and Sophia R.-J. Jang Bulletin of Mathematical Biology (2019) 81:1885–1915 Abstract: We develop a mathematical model of pancreatic cancer that includes pancreatic cancer cells, pancreatic stellate cells, effector cells and tumor-promoting and tumor- suppressing cytokines to investigate the effects of immunotherapies on patient survival. The model is first validated using the survival data of two clinical trials. Local sen- sitivity analysis of the parameters indicates there exists a critical activation rate of pro-tumor cytokines beyond which the cancer can be eradicated if four adoptive trans- fers of immune cells are applied. Optimal control theory is explored as a potential tool for searching the best adoptive cellular immunotherapies. Combined immunother- apies between adoptive ex vivo expanded immune cells and TGF-β inhibition by siRNA treatments are investigated. This study concludes that mono-immunotherapy is unlikely to control the pancreatic cancer and combined immunotherapies between anti-TGF-β and adoptive transfers of immune cells can prolong patient survival. We show through numerical explorations that how these two types of immunotherapies are scheduled is important to survival. Applying TGF-β inhibition first followed by adoptive immune cell transfers can yield better survival outcomes. This model is hosted on BioModels Database and identified by: MODEL1907050003.
