The thesis focuses on the nature of cancer and seeks an optimal therapeutic approach. It attemptsi to model and simulate the . tumour-immune interactions, which illustrates the uncontrolled growth of tumour cells and their impact on immune system cells . as well as healthy cells. We showed the desirable effect of electromagnetic therapy and chemotherapy. The proposed model is able to simulate and predict the response of chemotherapy in patients with different levels of immune system strength. It is proved that less dosage of chemotherapy in more frequent injection sessions leads to more regression in tumour cells and less side-effects.
