Towards a Reduced In Silico Model Predicting Biochemical Recurrence After Radiotherapy in Prostate Cancer

Objective: Purposes of this work were i) to develop an in silico model of tumor response to radiotherapy, ii) to perform an exhaustive sensitivity analysis in order to iii) propose a simplified version and iv) to predict biochemical recurrence with both the comprehensive and the reduced model. Methods: A multiscale computational model of tumor response to radiotherapy was developed. It integrated the following radiobiological mechanisms:...
