The old a1 needs to be multiplied by density1/3 to get the new a1. The max density is about 1 x 109, so new a1 ~ 1000 old a1.

• Time is scaled relative to the tumor’s effective growth rate• The immune population is scaled relative to the number
of tumor cells inactivated by each immune cell per unit of rescaled time
• The tumor population is scaled relative to its maximum size, ie the carrying capacity

Stability
The healthy state appears to be unstable always!! This is different from the model we analyzed in class. To verify this we need to look at trajectories in the phase plane.

Graph of Nullclines for Small σ
The parameter values used are μ = 0.7651, δ = 0.1842, γ = 0.0404, α = 0.5567, σ = 0.0572.
Graph of Nullclines for Large σ
The parameter values used are μ = 0.7651, δ = 0.1842, γ = 0.0404, α = 0.5567, σ = 0.2859.
Summary of Steady States• It is clear from the graph and our in class plots of the
effect of moving the e-nullcline that, for this model, there will always be at least two steady states. – This is because the elimination state always exits and the
e-nucline will always have a portion in the first quadrant that will insect with the n-nullcline.• This is different from what we found in class, where it was possible
to increase σ enough to eliminate all non-healthy states– Decreasing the tissue localization rate of the effector cells
results in the addition of two new disease states, representing higher tumor burdens.
Phase Portrait for Small σ
Four steady states are present. The healthy state is unstable as is the steady state representing medium tumor burden. The dormancy and immune escape states are both stable. This is similar to what we found with the model analyzed in class.
Phase Portrait for Large σ
Two steady states are present. The elimination state is again unstable and the steady state representing dormancy is stable.
Conclusions• Using the Von Bertalanffy growth function we found
that it is possible to obtain four steady states and to capture all three phases of the cancer immunoediting hypothesis.
• The major difference between the model with Von Bertanlanffy and the one with Logistic growth is that when using Von Bertalanffy growth, the healthy tissue state is always unstable making it impossible to achieve elimination of the tumor. – Therefore dormancy is the best possible outcome in this
case.
