Abstract:Mathematical modeling of drug transport can complement current experimental and clinical investigations to understand drug resistance mechanisms, which eventually will help to develop patient-specific chemotherapy treatments. In this paper, we present a general time- and space-dependent mathematical model based on diffusion theory for predicting chemotherapy outcome. This model has two important parameters: the blood volume fraction and radius of blood vessels divided by drug diffusion penetration length. Mode… Show more
