Modelling HIF-PHD Dynamics and Related Downstream Pathways
Hypoxia can represent a challenging condition for survival at different biological scales, from cells to organisms. The efficiency of the response to... -
A Fokker–Planck feedback control framework for optimal personalized therapies in colon cancer-induced angiogenesis
In this paper, a new framework for obtaining personalized optimal treatment strategies in colon cancer-induced angiogenesis is presented. The...

Mathematical Oncology: Tumor Evolution Models
Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally, accounting for an estimated nine million deaths per year. Mathematical oncology, modeling the... -
Bacillus Calmette Guerin (BCG) Immunotherapy for Bladder Cancer: A Control and Mathematical Analysis
In this manuscript, Immunotherapy with Bacillus Calmette Guerin (BCG) vaccine is devised for treating spherical bladder cancer. We considered the...

Optimization of Combined Antitumor Chemotherapy with Bevacizumab by Means of Mathematical Modeling
Unlike traditional tumor treatment which kills proliferating cells, antiangiogenic therapy is aimed at blocking of angiogenesis, i.e., new blood... -
Mathematical Modeling of Cellular Cross-Talk Between Endothelial and Tumor Cells Highlights Counterintuitive Effects of VEGF-Targeted Therapies
Tumor growth and progression are critically dependent on the establishment of a vascular support system. This is often accomplished via the...
