    Mathematical Modeling of Chemotherapy Effects on Brain Tumour Growth
    (International Conference and Advanced Workshop on Modelling and Simulation of Complex Systems, 2024-05-27) Abdurrahman, Nurat Olamide; Ibrahim, Mohammed Olanrewaju; Ibrahim, Jamiu Omotola
    A brain tumor is an abnormal growth or mass of cells in or around the brain. It is also called a central nervous system tumor. Brain tumors can be malignant (cancerous) or benign (non-cancerous). In this work, we proposed a system of nonlinear differential equations that model brain tumor under treatment by chemotherapy, which considers interactions among the glial cells X(t), the cancer cells Y(t), the neurons Z(t), and the chemotherapeutic agent C(t). The chemotherapeutic agent serves as a predator acting on all the cells. We studied the stability analysis of the steady states for both cases of no treatment and continuous treatment using the Jacobian Matrix. We concluded the study with a numerical simulation of the model and discussed the results obtained.
