Mathematical model parameters and their ranges.
Parameter | Description | Value | Reference |
---|---|---|---|
| |||
Time in days | |||
Sensitive cell density (normalized) | 0.0 – 1.0 | ||
Resistant cell density (normalized) | 0.0 – 1.0 | ||
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]. |
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 |
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. |
Initial tumor cell density (normalized) | 0.1 – 0.75 | Parameter sweep; values within this range reported by [33] | |
Initial resistant cell fraction | 0.001 – 0.1 | Parameter sweep; values within this range reported by [24] |
