Oncolytic viral therapy

Oncolytic Viraltherapy is cancer treatment that uses engineered viruses to specifically infect and kill cancer cells, without harming healthy cells. Immunotherapy boosts the body's natural defenses towards cancer. This research models combination oncolytic and immunotherapy. This combination is explored through a deterministic system of nonlinear differential equations, constructed to match experimental data for murine melanoma, with the underlying goal to seek optimal treatment regimens for both frequency and dose quantity.
