This DSPA Appendix shows examples of dynamic stochastic differential equation (SDE) models of cancer-treatment. The main objective is to develop an advanced generative stochastic differential equation (SDE) model proposing a new approach of cancer-treatment prediction. Ideally, the model should balance the relations between the primary pair of clinical outcome measures - intensity of the cancer-treatment intervention (by surgery, chemotherapy and radiation, manifesting as tumor local-control, \(LC\)) and side-effects (\(RP2\)), radiation pneumonitis grade 2 or higher, a measure of significant side effect in radiation therapy, see DOI: 10.1259/bjr.20220239.

Review the earlier Volterra-Lotka preditor-pray model and Hodgkin-Huxley (HH) model of neuronal neuron action potential propagation, which provide an oversimplified motivation for building a more advanced SDE cancer-model, which includes many controllable parameters accounting for the univariate distributions of dozens of observable clinical variables (biomarkers) and multivariate relations. The model (hyper)parameters can be tuned by Bayesian optimization using very sparsely sampled longitudinal clinical cancer-treatment data that includes the temporal dynamics of \(LC\) and \(RP2\) clinical outcomes from the point of initial diagnosis, through cancer-treatment intervention using alternative treatment strategies, to the final outcome stages. We’ll include a simulation of the proposed model and visualize SDE model instantiations that shows the time dynamics of \(LC\) and \(RP2\).

This advanced stochastic differential equation (SDE) model to predict and simulate cancer-treatment outcomes will track

  1. Local Control (LC) of the tumor (a proxy for treatment intensity/efficacy),
  2. Toxicity or side effects (RP2),
  3. Additional clinical/biological variables (e.g., biomarkers, imaging signals, performance status), and
  4. Patient survival or other endpoints.

Such a generative SDE framework can be viewed either as a Lotka-Volterra extension, where \(LC\) and \(RP2\) interact like predator-prey, or as an Hodgkin-Huxley-like system (with gating-type variables controlling “firing” or “flare-up” episodes of toxicity vs. tumor response). The key is to incorporate both deterministic dynamics (e.g., standard dose-response models) and stochastic components, e.g., random fluctuations reflecting inter-patient heterogeneity, measurement noise, or temporal variability in a patient’s biology.

1 First-Generation SDE Model

We will start with an oversimplified mathematical model of tumor dynamics without utilizing advanced biophysical principles. A more sophisticated biophysics SDE model will be presented later.

1.1 SDE Model Design

Let’s denote the state variables by \[\mathbf{X}(t) = \begin{pmatrix} LC(t) \\ RP2(t) \\ \mathbf{B}(t) \end{pmatrix},\] where \(LC(t)\) measures local tumor control (e.g., size reduction, imaging readouts), \(RP2(t)\) measures radiation- or drug-related side effects or toxicity, and \(\mathbf{B}(t)\) is a vector of relevant biomarkers or other continuous clinical variables (e.g., lab values, immunological markers), potentially of dimension 10-30 depending on data availability.

The treatment inputs can be denoted by \(\mathbf{u}(t)\) the treatment inputs (e.g., dose schedules for surgery/chemotherapy/radiation, or immunotherapy cycles). These external controls can drive the tumor and/or side-effect trajectories.

Next, we need to formulate the time evolution of the SDE model

\[d \mathbf{X}(t) = \mathbf{f}\bigl(\mathbf{X}(t), \mathbf{u}(t), \boldsymbol{\theta}\bigr)\,dt \;+\; \mathbf{g}\bigl(\mathbf{X}(t), \mathbf{u}(t), \boldsymbol{\theta}\bigr)\,d\mathbf{W}(t),\] where \(\mathbf{f}(\cdot)\) is the drift (deterministic) part, modeling how tumor control and toxicity progress on average, \(\mathbf{g}(\cdot)\) encodes the diffusion (noise) part, allowing for random fluctuations in responses and side effects, \(\boldsymbol{\theta}\) is a parameter set controlling tumor growth rates, clearance rates, synergy between multiple therapies, and so on, and \(\mathbf{W}(t)\) is a vector Wiener process (Brownian motion).

Using intuition from the Lotka-Volterra model, we may treat \(LC\) as a “prey” variable (grows unless suppressed) and \(RP2\) as a “predator” (side effects escalate and feed off continuing treatment). Let’s consider a possible drift in the form

\[\begin{aligned} dLC &= \Bigl[\alpha\,LC - \beta\,LC \cdot RP2 \;-\;\phi_{\text{decay}}\,LC \Bigr] dt \;+\; \sigma_{LC}(LC,RP2)\, dW_1,\\[6pt] dRP2 &= \Bigl[\gamma\,LC \cdot RP2 - \delta\,RP2 \;-\;\psi_{\text{treatment}}\, \mathbf{u}(t)\,RP2 \Bigr] dt \;+\; \sigma_{RP2}(LC,RP2)\, dW_2,\\[6pt] d\mathbf{B} &= \mathbf{F}_{\mathbf{B}}(\mathbf{B}, LC, RP2, \mathbf{u})\,dt \;+\; \boldsymbol{\Sigma}_{\mathbf{B}}(\mathbf{B},LC,RP2)\,d\mathbf{W}_{\mathbf{B}}, \end{aligned}\] where \(\alpha, \beta, \gamma, \delta, \dots\) are parameters, and \(\sigma_{LC}, \sigma_{RP2}, \boldsymbol{\Sigma}_{\mathbf{B}}\) are noise intensities (possibly state-dependent).

Similarly to the Hodgkin-Huxley model, \(LC\) is analogous to a “membrane voltage,” while \(RP2\) (and possibly some gating variables) evolves more slowly, controlling when toxicity “fires.” The drift terms would mimic the classic HH model formulation:

\[\begin{aligned} d LC &= \text{(nonlinear function of LC, gating vars, u(t))}\,dt \;+\; \ldots,\\ d RP2 &= \text{(slower gating dynamics, driven by LC transitions)}\,dt \;+\; \ldots \end{aligned}.\]

Such a SDE model captures bursts of toxicity or short-lived flare-ups.

The (hyper)parameter vector estimation can be achieved by using Bayesian optimization. Because clinical data are often limited and noisy, we can use Bayesian methods (e.g., approximate Bayesian computation in Julia, Stan, or specialized packages) or utilize Bayesian optimization to tune the parameter vector \(\boldsymbol{\theta}\).

In clinical setting, naturally sparse sampling (few time points per patient) is handled by fitting population-level priors, then refining posteriors for subgroups or individuals. We can define a likelihood linking the SDE outputs to observed data (LC, toxicities, biomarkers). Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) or gradient-based Bayesian approaches can then infer the posterior distribution for \(\boldsymbol{\theta}\).

1.2 R Implementation

1.2.1 Simplified 2D SDE Modeling

We’ll start with a simpler first-generation SDE 2D model, using the snssde2d() function for the \(LC\)-\(RP2\) subsystem (as higher-dimensional SDEs require specialized handling in R). We’ll focus just on \(LC\) and \(RP2\) dynamics, with treatment as an external parameter.

The state variables are \[\mathbf{X}(t) = \begin{pmatrix} LC(t) \\ RP2(t) \end{pmatrix}. \]

The 2D SDE model system is \[\begin{aligned} dLC &= \left[\alpha LC \left(1 - \frac{LC}{K}\right) - \beta LC \cdot RP2 - \phi_{\text{treat}} u(t) \right] dt + \sigma_{LC} LC \, dW_1, \\ dRP2 &= \left[\gamma LC \cdot RP2 - \delta RP2 + \psi_{\text{treat}} u(t) \right] dt + \sigma_{RP2} \sqrt{RP2} \, dW_2. \end{aligned}\]

# Parameters
alphaP <- 0.3    # Tumor growth rate
KP <- 1.5        # Tumor carrying capacity
betaP <- 0.02    # Toxicity suppression rate
gammaP <- 0.015  # Toxicity activation rate
deltaP <- 0.4    # Toxicity clearance rate
phi_treat <- 0.1 # Treatment efficacy on LC
psi_treat <- 0.05 # Treatment-induced toxicity
sigma_LC <- 0.05 # Noise for LC

# Treatment schedule (example: weekly cycles)
u_t <- function(t) {
  ifelse(t %% 7 < 2, 1.0, 0.0)  # Treatment active 2 days/week
}

# Define drift and diffusion for snssde2d()
fx <- expression(
  alphaP * x * (1 - x/KP) - betaP * x * y - phi_treat * 1.0, # u(t) simplified to 1 when active
  gammaP * x * y - deltaP * y + psi_treat * 1.0
)

gx <- expression(
  sigma_LC * x,
  sigma_RP2 * sqrt(y)
)

# Simulate
set.seed(123)
mod <- snssde2d(
  drift = fx,
  diffusion = gx,
  x0 = c(x = 0.8, y = 0.1),
  t0 = 0,
  T = 60,
  N = 500,
  M = 50
)

# Visualize
fig <- plot_ly() 
for (i in 1:5) {  # Plot first 5 paths
  fig <- fig %>%
    add_trace(x = mod$time, y = mod$X[, i], name = paste("LC", i),
              type = "scatter", mode = "lines", line = list(color = "blue")) %>%
    add_trace(x = mod$time, y = mod$Y[, i], name = paste("RP2", i),
              line = list(color = "red"), yaxis = "y2")
}
fig <- fig %>% layout(
  title = "LC (Tumor Control) vs. RP2 (Toxicity)",
  yaxis2 = list(overlaying = "y", side = "right", title = "RP2"),
  xaxis = list(title = "Time (Days)")
)
fig

To match the existing R package capabilities, in this simplified 2D model the state space only covers \(LC\) and \(RP2\), but excludes the vector of biomarkers \(B\). We’ll revisit this later. The treatment schedule uses treatment cycles directly in the drift terms; phi_treat * 1.0 assumes full dose when active. For time-dependent u(t), we should precompute its values over the time grid and reference them in the drift expressions. An extension accounting for observable vectors of biomarkers, which are omitted in the 2D SDE model, may require simulating each biomarker as a 1D SDE or use alternative packages like pomp.

Below we show the protocol for R-based parameter estimation using rBayesianOptimization.

For higher dimensional SDE models with biomarkers, use sde.sim() from the sde package or switch to Julia’s DifferentialEquations.jl. In these situations, the time-dependent parameters should precompute the treatment schedules as vectors and reference them in drift/diffusion terms using approxfun(). The parameter estimate validation may require holding-out data or synthetic benchmarking.

1.2.2 General High-Dimensional (\(nD\)) SDE Modeling

Let’s build a stochastic differential equation (SDE) model that captures the dynamic interplay between tumor local control (LC), treatment-related side effects (RP2), and biomarkers (\(B\)). The model extends the Lotka-Volterra framework with treatment inputs and biomarker dynamics. Consider the triple of state variables (outcomes + inputs)

\[\mathbf{X}(t) = \begin{pmatrix} LC(t) \\ RP2(t) \\ \mathbf{B}(t) \end{pmatrix}, \quad \text{where the hyperparameter vector } \mathbf{B}(t) \in \mathbb{R}^k \text{ (e.g., } k=10\text{ biomarkers)}.\]

The analytical representation of the SDE system is \[\begin{aligned} dLC &= \left[\alpha LC \left(1 - \frac{LC}{K}\right) - \beta LC \cdot RP2 - \phi_{\text{treat}} u(t) LC \right] dt + \sigma_{LC} LC \, dW_1, \\ dRP2 &= \left[\gamma LC \cdot RP2 - \delta RP2 + \psi_{\text{treat}} u(t) \right] dt + \sigma_{RP2} \sqrt{RP2} \, dW_2, \\ dB_i &= \left[\mu_i(B_i) + \eta_i LC - \nu_i RP2 \right] dt + \sigma_{B_i} \, dW_{B_i}, \quad i=1,\dots,k, \end{aligned}\] which depends on the following parameters

  • \(\alpha, K\): Tumor growth rate and carrying capacity.
  • \(\beta\): Toxicity-driven tumor suppression.
  • \(\phi_{\text{treat}}\): Treatment efficacy on LC.
  • \(\gamma, \delta\): Toxicity activation and clearance.
  • \(\psi_{\text{treat}}\): Treatment-induced toxicity.
  • \(\mu_i, \eta_i, \nu_i\): Biomarker drift terms.
  • \(\sigma\): Noise intensities.

Here’s a comprehensive solution using Julia’s DifferentialEquations.jl package for high-dimensional SDE modeling. For specificity, we’ll implement a \(5D\) system (\(LC\), \(RP2\) and a \(3\)-component biomarkers vector). This workflow requires Julia \(V\ge 1.9\) from julialang.org.

Side-note on Computational Inefficiencies: In this case, the \(5\) state variables include \(2\) outcomes and \(3\) biomarkers. Of course, there could be additional observables included in a more complex SDE model, which depends on a mixture of biospecimen, demographic, genetic, phenotypic and imaging descriptors. In principle, we should consider pre-processing the high-dimensional biomarkers including

  • Introduce a hierarchical clustering of biomarkers by type, e.g., clinical, biospecimen, ’omics (gene-transcriptome), phenotypic, imaging, text, cellular, etc., and
  • Using DSPA linear and non-linear dimentionality reduction transform the complex web of biomarkers into two to three salient-features within each biomarker type,
  • Normalize the salient-features within and between biomarker-types.

Such pre-processing will boost the energy of the vital (ensemble) biomarkers within each type, and will have the added benefit of ensuring the computational feasibility of solving the complex SDE modeling in reasonable time (working with \(\approx 5\) to \(25\) salient biomarkers). In this simulation example, we use a state space composed of

\[\mathbf{X}(t) = \begin{pmatrix} LC(t) \\ RP2(t) \\ B_1(t) \\ B_2(t) \\ B_3(t) \end{pmatrix}\]

anddefine the 5D SDE model

\[\begin{aligned} dLC &= \left[\alpha LC \left(1 - \frac{LC}{K}\right) - \beta LC \cdot RP2 - \phi u(t) \right]dt + \sigma_{LC} LC \, dW_1 \\ dRP2 &= \left[\gamma LC \cdot RP2 - \delta RP2 + \psi u(t) \right]dt + \sigma_{RP2} \sqrt{RP2} \, dW_2 \\ dB_1 &= \left[\mu_1(B_{1,\text{eq}} - B_1) + \eta_1 LC \right]dt + \sigma_{B1} \, dW_3 \\ dB_2 &= \left[\mu_2(B_{2,\text{eq}} - B_2) - \eta_2 RP2 \right]dt + \sigma_{B2} \, dW_4 \\ dB_3 &= \left[\mu_3(B_{3,\text{eq}} - B_3) + \eta_3 LC \cdot RP2 \right]dt + \sigma_{B3} \, dW_5 \end{aligned} .\]

For hyper-parameter estimation, we can use Bayesian Optimization (BO) in Julia where we define the function sde_cost(params).

Below, we run the Bayesian optimization in R invoking the Julia function sde_cost(params).

The code above is a bit more robust with respect to julia and knitr utilization. When knitting the R Markdown document, julia code blocks are being passed as single long string to julia_command(), which causes parsing errors. By breaking up the julia code into smaller, manageable chunks and using julia_eval() provides better error handling. The code also includes tryCatch() blocks around julia function tests and implements knitr::knit_exit() to gracefully stop if julia setup fails. It also creates a fallback synthetic data if h5_data is not available and replaces complex Bayesian optimization with simpler grid search to reduce execution time. In real studies, use the more computationally-intensive code-chunks below, which use eval=FALSE during Rmd to HTML knitting.

This end-to-end solution provides a template for advanced cancer treatment modeling with biomarkers, leveraging the strengths of both R (visualization, optimization) and Julia (high-performance differential equations).

1.3 Multi-Core Parallel Processing Optimization of \(nD\) SDE Modeling

Consider again the stochastic differential equation (SDE) model that captures the dynamic interplay between tumor local control (\(LC\)), treatment-related side effects (\(RP2\)), and biomarkers (\(B\)). The model extends the Lotka-Volterra framework with treatment inputs and biomarker dynamics. This time, we will use multi-core parallel processing optimization of \(nD\) SDE modeling. For simplicity of the hands-on demonstration, again we still use \(2+3\) state variables (outcomes + inputs)

\[\mathbf{X}(t) = \begin{pmatrix} LC(t) \\ RP2(t) \\ \mathbf{B}(t) \end{pmatrix}, \quad \text{where } \mathbf{B}(t) \in \mathbb{R}^k \text{ (e.g., } k=10\text{ biomarkers)}.\]

The analytical representation of the SDE system is \[\begin{aligned} dLC &= \left[\alpha LC \left(1 - \frac{LC}{K}\right) - \beta LC \cdot RP2 - \phi_{\text{treat}} u(t) LC \right] dt + \sigma_{LC} LC \, dW_1, \\ dRP2 &= \left[\gamma LC \cdot RP2 - \delta RP2 + \psi_{\text{treat}} u(t) \right] dt + \sigma_{RP2} \sqrt{RP2} \, dW_2, \\ dB_i &= \left[\mu_i(B_i) + \eta_i LC - \nu_i RP2 \right] dt + \sigma_{B_i} \, dW_{B_i}, \quad i=1,\dots,k, \end{aligned}\] which depends on the following parameters

  • \(\alpha, K\): Tumor growth rate and carrying capacity.
  • \(\beta\): Toxicity-driven tumor suppression.
  • \(\phi_{\text{treat}}\): Treatment efficacy on LC.
  • \(\gamma, \delta\): Toxicity activation and clearance.
  • \(\psi_{\text{treat}}\): Treatment-induced toxicity.
  • \(\mu_i, \eta_i, \nu_i\): Biomarker drift terms.
  • \(\sigma\): Noise intensities.

We can optimize the SDE cost function further by using parallel processing across multiple cores, e.g., \(10\) cores, by updating the R code to work with the parallelized Julia functions. The parallelized approach provides several significant performance benefits when optimizing the SDE model:

  1. Multi-core Evaluation: By using \(10\) cores, we can evaluate parameter sets approximately \(10\times\) faster than the sequential approach.

  2. Ensemble Evaluation: Each parameter set is evaluated across multiple stochastic trajectories, improving robustness of the cost calculation.

  3. Batch Processing: The code supports evaluating multiple parameter sets simultaneously, which works well with batch Bayesian optimization algorithms.

  4. Load Balancing: The pmap function distributes work evenly across workers, ensuring efficient resource utilization.

  5. Worker Setup:

-   The code adds workers at initialization
-   Required packages and variables are shared across workers
-   The base problem (`prob`) is distributed to all workers
  1. Enhanced Cost Function:
-   Uses ensemble simulation for stochastic systems
-   Calculates costs across multiple trajectories for robustness
-   Uses median cost to reduce sensitivity to outliers
-   Improved error handling for worker processes
  1. Performance Considerations:
-   Parameter constraints are applied on each worker
-   Correlation calculations use try-catch for stability
-   Finite filtering prevents NaN/Inf from corrupting results

Note that the underying Julia parallel code is in a separate file, DSPA_Appendix19_SDE_parallel.jl, which is sourced in R. We can modify the init_points and n_iter parameters to control the evaluation runs with parallelization. The code handles both single-parameter evaluation (for standard Bayesian optimization) and batch evaluation (for advanced optimizers). By monitoring the memory usage, we can run multiple SDEs simultaneously that are memory-intensive. This approach provides a significant speedup for the the SDE model optimization process while maintaining the quality of the results. The actual multi-core parallelization is handled in Julia directly, not R. Here, we use the Julia source file DSPA_Appendix19_SDE_parallel.jl.

To accelerate the Bayesian optimization using parallel processing, utilize Julia’s built-in parallelism for the SDE simulations and R’s parallel package for concurrent parameter evaluations.

### **1. Julia Parallel Setup (in R)**
library(parallel)
library(JuliaCall)

nCores <- 9
# Initialize Julia with nCores=9 cores
julia_setup(installJulia = TRUE)
julia_command("using Distributed; addprocs(9)")  # Use 9 workers

# Define parallel SDE evaluation in Julia
julia_command('
@everywhere function parallel_sde_cost_batch(params_batch, observed_data)
    pmap(params -> sde_cost_worker(params, observed_data), params_batch)
end
')

### **2. Parallelized R Objective Function**
safe_objective_parallel <- function(param_batch) {
  # Convert batch to Julia array
  julia_assign("param_batch_jl", param_batch)
  
  # Evaluate batch in parallel
  costs <- julia_eval("parallel_sde_cost_batch(param_batch_jl, observed_data_shared)")
  
  # Return scores
  lapply(costs, function(c) list(Score = -c, Pred = 0))
}

# Create cluster
cl <- makeCluster(nCores+1)
clusterExport(cl, c("julia_eval", "julia_assign"))

### **3. Modified Bayesian Optimization**

1.4 Bayesian Optimization vs. Stochastic Gradient Descent Optimization

Bayesian Optimization and Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) are different optimization schemes, which can potentially be combined. Bayesian Optimization uses a probabilistic surrogate model (Gaussian Process) to approximate the objective function and explores the parameter space by balancing state-space exploration and exploitation. It works well for expensive-to-evaluate functions (like SDE modeling) and doesn’t require gradients of the objective function, hence, it generally needs fewer function evaluations than SGD. On the other hand, Stochastic Gradient Descent requires calculation of gradients of the objective function to iteratively update the parameter estimates in the direction of steepest descent. It works well for large-scale optimization with noisy gradients and usually needs many function evaluations, but could get stuck in local minima.

For SDE model optimization, we could potentially create a hybrid approach that uses Bayesian Optimization to find promising regions of the parameter space and then apply SGD to refine the best solutions found by Bayesian Optimization. then, combining the global exploration capability of Bayesian Optimization with the local refinement of SGD may yield improved performance. However, computing numerical gradients requires additional function evaluations and the SGD phase might significantly increase total computation time. Also, SGD might be sensitive to the choice of learning rate and momentum and the SDE system might not be smooth enough for reliable gradient estimation.

In these experiments, the model dynamics include \(LC\), which follows logistic growth with treatment suppression and toxicity-driven death, \(RP2\) increases with tumor presence and treatment, decays naturally, and biomarkers that depend linearly on \(LC\) and \(RP2\) and have intrinsic drift. The cancer intervention, treatment schedule, uses intermittent chemotherapy cycles (u_t(t)). And the (hyper)parameter estimation utilizes Bayesian optimization to tunes parameters to match (smaller) observed data. This framework provides a flexible foundation for integrating clinical data and refining dynamics using domain knowledge.

2 Biophysically Grounded Advanced SDE Model

2.1 Mathematical Formulation

The state variables are represented by \[\mathbf{X}(t) = \begin{pmatrix} LC(t) \\ RP2(t) \\ \mathbf{B}(t) \end{pmatrix}\]

where

  • \(LC(t)\): Local tumor control (inverse relationship to tumor burden)
  • \(RP2(t)\): Radiation pneumonitis grade \(\ge 2\) (treatment toxicity)
  • \(\mathbf{B}(t) \in \mathbb{R}^k\): Vector of \(k\) biomarkers.

The treatment inputs include

  • \(u(t)\): Administered treatment intensity
  • \(u_{eff,T}(t)\): Effective dose at tumor site (from PK/PD model)
  • \(u_{eff,N}(t)\): Effective dose at normal tissue (from PK/PD model).

The general SDE formulation is \[d \mathbf{X}(t) = \mathbf{f}\bigl(\mathbf{X}(t), \mathbf{u}_{eff}(t), \boldsymbol{\theta}\bigr)\,dt + \mathbf{g}\bigl(\mathbf{X}(t), \mathbf{u}_{eff}(t), \boldsymbol{\theta}\bigr)\,d\mathbf{W}(t)\]

2.2 Biophysically Refined 2D Model

For the simplified system focusing on \(LC\) and \(RP2\)

\[\begin{aligned} dLC &= \left[\alpha LC \left(1 - \frac{LC}{K(t,\mathbf{B})}\right) - \beta LC \cdot RP2 + \phi_{\text{treat}}^{\text{eff}}(u_{eff,T}(t),LC, \boldsymbol{\theta}_{\phi}) \right] dt + \sigma_{LC} LC \, dW_1 \\ dRP2 &= \left[\gamma \frac{K(t,\mathbf{B})-LC}{K(t,\mathbf{B})} RP2 - \delta(RP2, \mathbf{B}) RP2 + \psi_{\text{treat}}^{\text{eff}}(u_{eff,N}(t), \int u_{eff,N} d\tau, \boldsymbol{\theta}_{\psi}) \right] dt + \sigma_{RP2} \sqrt{RP2} \, dW_2 \end{aligned}.\]

The key biophysical enhancements of this model include

  1. Dynamic carrying capacity: \(K(t,\mathbf{B})\) varies with biomarkers
  2. Treatment efficacy: \(\phi_{\text{treat}}^{\text{eff}}\) uses Hill function dose-response
  3. Toxicity clearance: \(\delta(RP2, \mathbf{B})\) incorporates Michaelis-Menten saturation
  4. Tumor-driven toxicity: \(\gamma \frac{K-LC}{K} RP2\) links uncontrolled tumor to toxicity
  5. Cumulative dose effects: \(\psi_{\text{treat}}^{\text{eff}}\) depends on dose history.

Finally, we update the Julia script to create a comprehensive biophysically grounded simulation os using the cancer SDE model and using eparate effective doses for tumor (u_eff_T) and normal tissue (u_eff_N), bioavailability and elimination kinetics, and treatment schedule with realistic fractionation (5 days/week for 6 weeks) This simulation also uses advanced dose-response model using Hill function for treatment efficacy with \(EC50\) and Hill coefficient, NTCP model for cumulative dose-dependent toxicity, and Michaelis-Menten kinetics for toxicity clearance. The time dynamics are controlled via 3 biomarkers, including carrying capacity dependent on the immune status (\(B1\)), toxicity clearance modulated by organ function (\(B2\)), \(B3\) inflammation, and tumor-driven toxicity proportional to uncontrolled disease.

The julia script supports multiple solver options, including (default) SRIW1 (robust for stiff SDEs), Euler-Maruyama, Runge-Kutta-Milstein, and an automatic solver selection based on success rate.

First install all necessary julia packages, if needed, otherwise, keep eval=FALSE.
