Parameter Description Value Reference

Time in days
ts(t):=S(t)Kr(t):=R(t)K Sensitive cell density (normalized) 0.0 – 1.0
Resistant cell density (normalized) 0.0 – 1.0
n(t):=S(t)+R(t)K Total tumor cell density (normalized) 0.0 – 1.0
d(t) = D(t)/DMax Drug dose (normalized) 0.0 – 1.0
rs Sensitive cell proliferation rate and model time scale 0.027d−1 Adopted from [10].
r^R:=rRrS Resistant cell proliferation rate (normalized) 0.5 – 1.0 Lower limit: [12]; Upper limit: assumption of no cost
K Environmental carrying capacity and scale for cell densities n/a Defined implicitly via n0
d^T:=dTrS Cell turnover rate (normalized) 0.0 – 0.5 Lower limit: assumption of no turnover; Upper limit: see Section S6
d^D := 2dD Drug-induced cell kill (see text for further explanation) 1.5 Adopted from [28]
D Max Maximum tolerated dose n/a Implicitly defined via d^D.
n0:=N0K Initial tumor cell density (normalized) 0.1 – 0.75 Parameter sweep; values within this range reported by [33]
fR:=R0N0 Initial resistant cell fraction 0.001 – 0.1 Parameter sweep; values within this range reported by [24]
