Optimal control of cytotoxic and antiangiogenic therapies on prostate cancer growth

TLDR
The results suggest that only cytotoxic chemotherapy is required to optimize therapeutic performance and it is shown that the optimal control framework can produce superior solutions to combined therapy with docetaxel and bevacizumab.
Abstract
Prostate cancer can be lethal in advanced stages, for which chemotherapy may become the only viable therapeutic option. While there is no clear clinical management strategy fitting all patients, cy...

Tumor Evolution Models of Phase-Field Type with Nonlocal Effects and Angiogenesis

TL;DR: In this paper , a variety of systems modeling tumor growth are discussed, including diffusive interface models and a phase-field approach, based on a multiphase approach that employs constitutive laws and balance laws for individual constituents.

Data-Driven Simulation of Fisher-Kolmogorov Tumor Growth Models Using Dynamic Mode Decomposition.

TL;DR: This work proposes to utilize Dynamic-Mode Decomposition (DMD), an unsupervised machine learning method, to construct a low-dimensional representation of cancer models and accelerate their simulation, and finds that, for moderate to high tumor cell diffusivity and low to moderate tumor cell proliferation rate, DMD reconstructions provide accurate, bounded-error reconstructions for all tested training periods.

A hybrid spatiotemporal model of PCa dynamics and insights into optimal therapeutic strategies.

TL;DR: In this article , a hybrid cellular automaton with stochastic elements was used to investigate the effectiveness of multiple drug therapies on prostate cancer (PCa) growth, including enzalutamide and cabazitaxel.

Isogeometric analysis : CAD, finite elements, NURBS, exact geometry and mesh refinement

TL;DR: In this article, the concept of isogeometric analysis is proposed and the basis functions generated from NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines) are employed to construct an exact geometric model.

Normalization of Tumor Vasculature: An Emerging Concept in Antiangiogenic Therapy

TL;DR: Emerging evidence supporting an alternative hypothesis is reviewed—that certain antiangiogenic agents can also transiently “normalize” the abnormal structure and function of tumor vasculature to make it more efficient for oxygen and drug delivery.
