Analyzing the distribution of progression-free survival for combination therapies: A study of model-based translational predictive methods in oncology
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2024
In this paper, we analyze the distribution of PFS for a frequently used tumor growth inhibition model with and without drug-resistance and highlight the translational implications of this. Moreover, we explore and compare how the PFS distribution for combination therapy differs under the hypotheses of additive and independent-drug action.
Furthermore, we calibrate the model to preclinical data and use a previously calibrated clinical model to show that our analytical conclusions are applicable to real-world setting. Finally, we demonstrate that independent-drug action can effectively describe the tumor dynamics of patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) given certain drug combinations.
