Abstract

In the paper we study some control properties of a two compartmental model of response to anticancer treatment which combines antiangiogenic and cytotoxic drugs and takes into account multiple delays in control. Mode precisely we formulate sufficient local controllability conditions for semilinear systems which result from the use of Hakufeldt et al. model, endowed with two control variables representing antiangiogenic modality, combined with chemotherapy which contain delays related to PK/PD effects and some clinical recommendations e.g. normalization of vascular network. Then the optimized protocols of the combined therapy for the model, considered as solutions of an optimal control problem for dynamical systems with delays in control, are found using necessary conditions of optimality and numerical calculations. Structural sensitivity of considered control properties and optimal solutions are also discussed.
