A two population model of cancer growth with fixed capacity

Cancer is not a homogenous tissue, but a very complex mix of different cell populations; moreover, a delicate equilibrium exists between these components of a tumour mass. In this work we address prostate cancer although the methods presented can be generalized to most tumour types. The aim of our work is to model the behaviour of the different cell populations within the tumour and simulate changes which occur during natural evolution and treatments.
