Abstract

Intermittent therapy treatment for prostate cancer allows scientists to approximate the growth of the cancer and attempt to control the growth. However, currently, scientists rely on multiple differential equations to model this. The study of time scales could potentially allow scientists to consider both on and off treatment periods simultaneously. This paper will begin to approach the Intermittent Therapy models using time scales to answer the question `Is there an optimal treatment plan for prostate cancer patients?'
