Schattler2016 - Dynamical properties of a minimally parameterized mathematical model for metronomic chemotherapy


ABSTRACT: A minimally parameterized mathematical model for low-dose metronomic chemotherapy is formulated that takes into account angiogenic signaling between the tumor and its vasculature and tumor inhibiting effects of tumor-immune system interactions. The dynamical equations combine a model for tumor development under angiogenic signaling formulated by Hahnfeldt et al. with a model for tumor-immune system interactions by Stepanova. The dynamical properties of the model are analyzed. Depending on the parameter values, the system encompasses a variety of medically realistic scenarios that range from cases when (i) low-dose metronomic chemotherapy is able to eradicate the tumor (all trajectories converge to a tumor-free equilibrium point) to situations when (ii) tumor dormancy is induced (a unique, globally asymp- totically stable benign equilibrium point exists) to (iii) multi-stable situations that have both persistent benign and malignant behaviors separated by the stable manifold of an unstable equilibrium point and finally to (iv) situations when tumor growth can- not be overcome by low-dose metronomic chemotherapy. The model forms a basis for a more general study of chemotherapy when the main components of a tumor’s microenvironment are taken into account
