Abstract
Dosage and frequency of treatment schedulesare important for successful chemotherapy.However, in this work we argue that cell-kill response and tumoralgrowth should not be seen as separate and therefore are essential in a mathematical cancer model.This paper presents a mathematical model for sequencing of cancer chemotherapy andsurgery. Our purpose is to investigate treatments for large human tumoursconsidering a suitable cell-kill dynamics. Weuse some biological and pharmacological data in a numerical approach,where drug administration occurs in cycles (periodic infusion)and surgery is performed instantaneously. Moreover, we alsopresent an analysis of stabilityfor a chemotherapeutic model with continuous drug administration.According to Norton & Simon [22], our results indicate that chemotherapy is lessefficient in treating tumours that have reached a plateau level of growingand that a combination with surgical treatment can provide better outcomes.
