Optimal Control Theory Applied To The Anti-Viral Treatment Of AIDS

Authors:

Jose A. M. Felippe De Souza, Marco Antonio Leonel Caetano, Takashi Yoneyama,

Volume: 1, Page 4839 Paper number 1703

Abstract:

This work concerns a particular application of the Optimal Control Theory to a model related to HIV infection dynamics. The mathematical model adopted in this work was proposed by Nowak et al., 1996 and describes the dynamics of viral concentration in terms of interaction with CD4 cells and the cytotoxic T lymphocytes, which are responsible for the immune defense of the organism. The control variable is the drug dose, which, in turn, affects the rate of infection of CD4 cells by HIV virus. The cost function to be minimized is a weighted sum of the final viral load and the accumulated side effects. Simulation results show that the optimal control scheme can achieve improved quality of the treatment in terms of reduction in the viral load and quantity of administered drugs, but has the inconvenience related to the necessity of frequent and periodic laboratory analysis to provide feedback information to adjust the doses.

On A Synthesis Of Controls For A Mathematical Model Of Cancer Chemotherapy

Authors:

Urszula A. Ledzewicz, Heinz M. Schättler,

Volume: 1, Page 4845 Paper number 61

Abstract:

A simple mathematical model for cancer chemotherapy from the literature is given by an optimal control problem over a finite horizon with control constraint and dynamics given by a bilinear system. We describe some aspects of its synthesis of optimal controls for the cases of an L_1- respectively L_2-objective in the control. In the first case optimal controls are bang-bang while a saturated smooth control is optimal for the quadratic objective.

Optimal Control Applied to Drug Administration in Cancer Chemotherapy: the Case of Several Toxicity Constraints

Authors:

Alexey S. Matveev, Andrey V. Savkin,

Volume: 1, Page 4851 Paper number 2155

Abstract:

Cancer chemotherapy for the case of one drug is studied. The negative and inhibiting effect of the tumor on normal cells is taken into account. Under certain assumptions, we determine the optimal regimen that minimizes the tumor burden at the end of a fixed period of therapy, while maintaining certain normal cell populations above prescribed levels. More precisely, it is demonstrated that the optimal strategy corresponds to injection of the drug at the maximal rate.

Multi-Objective Optimal Control of a Heart Assist Device

Authors:

Dehou Liu, J. Robert Boston, Marwan A. Simaan, James F. Antaki,

Volume: 1, Page 4857 Paper number 1740

Abstract:

Heart assist devices play an important role in the treatment of heart disease. One of the key issues with these devices is the control of pump speed to satisfy multiple clinical requirements such as providing adequate cardiac output at appropriate left atrial pressure and systolic arterial pressure. A controller based on a multi-objective performance criterion is being developed at the University of Pittsburgh to fulfill these requirements. This paper describes the criterion and the penalty functions from which it is derived. The algorithm was applied to simulated cardiovascular data and to data from animals with implanted assist devices, and some preliminary results on the shape of the non-inferior set defined by the penalty functions were obtained.

Managing Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus In Ambulatory Patients

Authors:

Lucia Santoso, Iven M.Y. Mareels,

Volume: 1, Page 4859 Paper number 1974

Abstract:

We present a direct adaptive control/management idea for assisting patients suffering from type 1 diabetes mellitus. It is argued that a static non-linear feedback law is all that can reasonably be implemented given the paucity of the measurement data.
