Title
Model-based angiogenic inhibition of tumor growth using feedback linearization.
Abstract
In the last decades beside conventional cancer treatment methods, molecular targeted therapies show prosperous results. These therapies have limited side-effects, and in comparison to chemotherapy, tumorous cells show lower tendency of becoming resistant to the applied antiangiogenic drugs. In clinical research, antiangiogenic therapy is one of the most promising cancer treatment methods. Using a simplified model of the reference dynamical model for tumor growth under angiogenic inhibition from the literature, exact linearization is performed in the paper to handle the nonlinear behavior of the model. Two different control methods are applied on the linearized model: flat control and switching control. Simulations are performed on the nonlinear model to show the characteristics of the therapies carried out using the presented control methods.
