This paper deals with the control of a cancerous tumour growth. The model used is a Three-Dimensional Cancer Model (TDCM). The competition terms include tumour cells, healthy cells, and immune cells. Nature of the competition among the populations of tumour cells, healthy host cells, and immune cells results in a chaotic behaviour. In this paper, a nonlinear active control has been used to control the growth of a tumour. Effect of chemotherapy drug on the different cell populations has been studied. Our control objective is to control the tumour growth and minimize its population to a small value which can be considered as harmless.Along with the above objective, the normal cell population is also be maintained at a particular level. This work has been done completely inin-sillico environment. The simulation results are shown extensively to support the theoretical analysis and confirmed that the preliminary objectives of the paper are attained.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of Haishengsu (HSS) on transplanted K562 and drug-resistant K562/ADM tumors. Methods: Mice were inoculated subcutaneously with K562 and K562/ADM cells, respectively. Tumour-bearing animals were divided into HSS, adriamycin, combination therapy (adriamycin plus HSS) and placebo groups. The anti-tumour effect was assessed by tumour growth curve and tumour inhibitory rate (IR). Results: In animals inoculated with K562 cells, the inhibitory rates of high (1800mg/kg) and medium (900mg/kg ) dose HSS groups were 100% and 96.4%, respectively, which was higher than that in the adriamycin (88.9%) or the combination therapy groups (85.8%, P < 0.05). The inhibitory rate in the low-dose HSS group (53.4%) was lower than in all other groups (P < 0.01). In mice inoculated with K562/ADM cells, the inhibitory rates in the high, medium and low dose HSS groups were 100%, 95.9%, and 44.1%, respectively. In the adriamycin group, the inhibitory rate was 23.07%, which was lower than in the HSS group (P < 0.01). Pathological examination of tumour tissues from HSS-treated animals showed extensive necrosis and bleeding. Conclusions: Haishengsu inhibits the growth of transplanted K562 tumours in mice. It is also effective in suppressing the growth of drug-resistant K562/ADM tumors in this animal model.

Interferon gamma (IFNg) is a pleiotropic cytokine that can potentially reprogramme the tumour microenvironment. However, the antitumour immunomodulatory properties of IFNg still need to be validated due to variable therapeutic outcomes in preclinical and clinical studies. We developed a replication-deficient Semliki Forest virus vector expressing IFNg (SFV/IFNg) and evaluated its immunomodulatory antitumour potential in vitro in a model of 3D spheroids and in vivo in immunocompetent 4T1 mouse breast cancer model. We demonstrated that SFV-derived IFN-g stimulated bone marrow macrophages to acquire the tumoricidal M1 phenotype in 3D nonattached conditions. Coculturing SFV/IFNg-infected 4T1 spheroids with BMDMs inhibited spheroid growth. In the orthotopic 4T1 mouse model, intratumoural administration of SFV/IFNg virus particles alone or in combination with the Pam3CSK4 TLR2/1 ligand led to significant inhibition of tumour growth compared to the administration of the control SFV/Luc virus particles. Analysis of the composition of intra-tumoural lymphoid cells isolated from tumours after SFV/IFNg treatment revealed an increase in CD4+ and CD8+ and a decrease in T-reg (CD4+/CD25+/FoxP3+) cell populations. Furthermore, a significant decrease in the populations of cells bearing myeloid cell markers CD11b, CD38 and CD206 was observed. In conclusion, the SFV/IFNg vector induces a therapeutic antitumour T-cell response and inhibits myeloid cell infiltration in treated tumours.
