Dosimetric comparison of treatment of left breast cancer using two different dose schedules Dosimetric comparison of treatment of left breast cancer using two different dose schedules
Background: To date, different kinds of treatment methods have been proposed for radiotherapy of cancer patients. Choosing the kind of treatment method affects the quality of the patient's treatment. This study aims to investigate the effect of the number of radiation treatment sessions on the dose received by the patient and the distribution of tumor dose and dose received by organs at risk in...
متن کاملMathematical modeling identifies optimum lapatinib dosing schedules for the treatment of glioblastoma patients
Human primary glioblastomas (GBM) often harbor mutations within the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Treatment of EGFR-mutant GBM cell lines with the EGFR/HER2 tyrosine kinase inhibitor lapatinib can effectively induce cell death in these models. However, EGFR inhibitors have shown little efficacy in the clinic, partly because of inappropriate dosing. Here, we developed a computational ...
متن کاملOptimization of Polling Systems with Bernoulli Schedules
Many computer-communication networks in which the transmission right is circulated among the nodes have been modeled as polling systems. This paper concerns optimization of cyclic polling systems with respect to the service disciplines at the nodes. The service disciplines are chosen to be Bernoulli schedules. Because the optimization problem is not analytically tractable, a numerical approach ...
متن کاملComparing different treatment schedules of Zomen (zofenopril).
BACKGROUND Chronotherapy of hypertension became, during the last years, a main target in optimal BP values control, during 24 hours. Many clinical studies have demonstrated a different effect on blood pressure of the majority of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs), studied as function of the moment of their administration. Until now, the majority of clinical proofs sustain the grea...
