A mathematical model of chromosome recombination-induced drug resistance in cancer therapy
Cytotoxic chemotherapeutics are common treatment methods of many cancers, and patients are often dosed at maximum tolerated dose (MTD), which is trying to eliminate cancer cells as much as possible. However, highly doses chemotherapy may induce unexpected gene mutations or DNA recombinations, which...
