“…An additional development of this study would be to include a spatial structure, for instance by embedding the cancer cells in the geometry of a solid tumour, and to take explicitly into account the effect of spatial interactions between cancer cells, therapeutic agents and other abiotic factors, such as oxygen and glucose [54,55]. In this case, the resulting individual-based model would be integrated with a system of PDEs modelling the dynamics of the abiotic factors, thus leading to a hybrid model [4,9,10,15,16,31,34,40,48,75,76]. These are all lines of research that we will be pursuing in the near future.…”
