    Abstract The release of tumor antigens during traditional cancer treatments such as radio- or chemotherapy leads to a stimulation of the immune response which provides synergistic effects these treatments have when combined with immunotherapies. A low-dimensional mathematical model is formulated which, depending on the values of its parameters, encompasses the 3 E's (elimination, equilibrium, escape) of tumor immune system interactions. For the escape situation, optimal control problems are formulated which aim to revert the process to the equilibrium scenario. Some numerical results are included.

    Abstract We review and discuss results obtained through an application of tools of nonlinear optimal control to biomedical problems. We discuss various aspects of the modeling of the dynamics (such as growth and interaction terms), modeling of treatment (including pharmacometrics of the drugs), and give special attention to the choice of the objective functional to be minimized. Indeed, many properties of optimal solutions are predestined by this choice which often is only made casually using some simple ad hoc heuristics. We discuss means to improve this choice by taking into account the underlying biology of the problem.

    Serientitel Lecture notes on mathematical modelling in the life sciences,
    Abstract Mathematical biomedicine is a rapidly developing interdisciplinary field of research that connects the natural and exact sciences in an attempt to respond to the modeling and simulation challenges raised by biology and medicine. There exist a large number of mathematical methods and procedures that can be brought in to meet these challenges and this book presents a palette of such tools ranging from discrete cellular automata to cell population based models described by ordinary differential equations to nonlinear partial differential equations representing complex time- and space-dependent continuous processes. Both stochastic and deterministic methods are employed to analyze biological phenomena in various temporal and spatial settings. This book illustrates the breadth and depth of research opportunities that exist in the general field of mathematical biomedicine by highlighting some of the fascinating interactions that continue to develop between the mathematical and biomedical sciences. It consists of five parts that can be read independently, but are arranged to give the reader a broader picture of specific research topics and the mathematical tools that are being applied in its modeling and analysis. The main areas covered include immune system modeling, blood vessel dynamics, cancer modeling and treatment, and epidemiology. The chapters address topics that are at the forefront of current biomedical research such as cancer stem cells, immunodominance and viral epitopes, aggressive forms of brain cancer, or gene therapy. The presentations highlight how mathematical modeling can enhance biomedical understanding and will be of interest to both the mathematical and the biomedical communities including researchers already working in the field as well as those who might consider entering it. Much of the material is presented in a way that gives graduate students and young researchers a starting point for their own work.

    Abstract While many novel therapies have been approved in recent years for treating patients with multiple myeloma, there is still no established curative regimen, especially for patients with high-risk disease. In this work, we use a mathematical modeling approach to determine combination therapy regimens that maximize healthy lifespan for patients with multiple myeloma. We start with a mathematical model for the underlying disease and immune dynamics, which was presented and analyzed previously. We add the effects of three therapies to the model: pomalidomide, dexamethasone, and elotuzumab. We consider multiple approaches to optimizing combinations of these therapies. We find that optimal control combined with approximation outperforms other methods, in that it can quickly produce a combination regimen that is clinically-feasible and near-optimal. Implications of this work can be used to optimize doses and advance the scheduling of drugs.

    Abstract Metronomic chemotherapy refers to the frequent administration of chemotherapy at relatively low, minimally toxic doses without prolonged treatment interruptions. Different from conventional or maximum-tolerated-dose chemotherapy which aims at an eradication of all malignant cells, in a metronomic dosing the goal often lies in the long-term management of the disease when eradication proves elusive. Mathematical modeling and subsequent analysis (theoretical as well as numerical) have become an increasingly more valuable tool (in silico) both for determining conditions under which specific treatment strategies should be preferred and for numerically optimizing treatment regimens. While elaborate, computationally-driven patient specific schemes that would optimize the timing and drug dose levels are still a part of the future, such procedures may become instrumental in making chemotherapy effective in situations where it currently fails. Ideally, mathematical modeling and analysis will develop into an additional decision making tool in the complicated process that is the determination of efficient chemotherapy regimens. In this article, we review some of the results that have been obtained about metronomic chemotherapy from mathematical models and what they infer about the structure of optimal treatment regimens.

    Abstract We review results about the structure of administration of chemotherapeutic anti-cancer treatment that we have obtained from an analysis of minimally parameterized mathematical models using methods of optimal control. This is a branch of continuous-time optimization that studies the minimization of a performance criterion imposed on an underlying dynamical system subject to constraints. The scheduling of anti-cancer treatments has all the features of such a problem: treatments are administered in time and the interactions of the drugs with the tumor and its microenvironment determine the efficacy of therapy. At the same time, constraints on the toxicity of the treatments need to be taken into account. The models we consider are low-dimensional and do not include more refined details, but they capture the essence of the underlying biology and our results give robust and rather conclusive qualitative information about the administration of optimal treatment protocols that strongly correlate with approaches taken in medical practice. We describe the changes that arise in optimal administration schedules as the mathematical models are increasingly refined to progress from models that only consider the cancerous cells to models that include the major components of the tumor microenvironment, namely the tumor vasculature and tumor-immune system interactions.

    Abstract In this work, we demonstrate a mathematical technique for optimizing combination regimens with constraints. We apply the technique to a mathematical model for treatment of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia. The in-host model includes leukemic cell and immune system dynamics during treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors and immunomodulatory compounds. The model is minimal (semi-mechanistic) with just enough detail that all relevant therapeutic effects can be represented. The regimens are optimized to yield the highest possible reduction in disease burden, taking into account dosing constraints and side effect risks due to drug exposure. We compare the following three types of regimens: (1) regimens that are restricted to certain discrete dose levels, which can only change every three months; (2) optimal regimens determined using optimal control; and (3) regimens that are piecewise-constant like the first type of regimen, but are obtained as approximations to the optimal control regimens. All three types of regimens result in similar outcomes, but the last one is easy to compute in addition to being clinically feasible.
