We incorporated tumour relapse kinetics into the TCP framework and calculate the associated second cancer risks. To calculate proton therapy-induced secondary cancer induction, we used the well-known biologically motivated mathematical model, initiation–inactivation–proliferation formalism. We used the available in vitro data for the linear ener…

A biologically motivated mathematical formalism is used to estimate the relative risks of breast, lung and thyroid cancers in childhood cancer survivors due to concurrent therapy regimen. This model specifically includes possible organ-specific interaction between radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The model predicts relative risks for developing se…

We employed a biologically motivated mathematical model to estimate the radiation and chemotherapy-induced relative risks of thyroid malignancies in four childhood cancer study survivors (CCSS) data sets. the predictions of radiation and chemotherapy-induced relative risks of secondary thyroid malignancies using the mathematical model are compar…
