Abstract

There has been significant interest in using advanced control strategies for medical treatments in recent years. This study proposes a two-fold approach to enhance drug dosing in cancer treatment. Firstly, a stochastic model predictive control (SMPC) is designed to address the uncertainties inherent in patient responses. Secondly, this SMPC is formulated as a sequential quadratic programming (SQP) MPC to manage the system's non-linearities. Therefore, this study proposes a stochastic SQP-MPC drug delivery framework to enhance patient outcomes and reduce side effects. The effectiveness of the proposed strategy is assessed via simulations and compared with other strategies. © 2024 EUCA.
