A numerical approach of tumor‐immune model with B cells and monoclonal antibody drug by multi‐step differential transformation method

Abstract

Monoclonal antibody (mAb) drugs are used to kill malignant tumors by making them able to see into the immune system. In this article, we developed a mathematical model with the help of tumor‐immune system with antibodies effect and efficacy of mAb drug. We defined the existence of solutions of the model, and by the Lyapunov method, we showed that the solutions are bounded; thereafter, we illustrated the local and global stability phenomenon, which is described by the Lyapunov method and localization of compact invariant sets (LCIS) method for disease‐free equilibrium points including the biological significance. In actual fact, this model suggested some ideas about the malignant tumors reciprocate to mAb drug dosage and its efficacy, eventually to overcome malignancy. It is likely to control the steadiness of the tumor, which is very important for any kind of treatment. The numerical calculations for the proposed model have been carried out by multi‐step differential transformation method (Ms‐DTM). The simulation of the model is depicted through Figures 1–5, which shows the effect of interaction rate of tumor cells and antibodies and dose of the drug for various values of efficacy.
