4 Biological motivations Experiment on melanoma (UniKlinik Bonn) Injection of T-cells able to kill a specific type of melanoma. The treatment induces an inflammation, to which the melanoma react by changing their phenotype (markers disappear on their surface, "switch"). The T-cells cannot kill them any more, the tumor continues to grow. Loren Coquille (IAM-Bonn) CIRM - June 15, / 43
5 Biological motivations Without therapy : exponential growth of the tumor. With therapy : relapse after 140 days. With therapy and restimulation : late relapse. Loren Coquille (IAM-Bonn) CIRM - June 15, / 43

7 Adaptative dynamics The model Individual-based model Cancer cells (melanoma): each cell is characterized by a genotype and a phenotype. Each can reproduce, die, mutate (repr. with genotypic change) or switch (change its phenotype) at prescribed rates. Immune cells (T-cells): Each cell can reproduce, die, or kill a cancer cell of prescribed type (which produces a chemical messenger) at prescribed rates. Chemical messenger (TNF α): Each particle can die at a prescribed rate. Its presence influences the ability of a fixed type of cancer cell to switch. Trait space and measure : X = G P Z W = {g 1,..., g G } {p 1,..., p P } {z 1,..., z Z } w n = (n (g1,p 1 ),..., n (g G,p P ), n z1,..., n z Z, n w ) Loren Coquille (IAM-Bonn) CIRM - June 15, / 43

41 Mutations and switches : Polymorphic Evolution Sequence Invasion fitness? For the BPDL model : f (x, M) = b(x) d(x) y M c(x, y) n y. is the growth rate of a single individual with trait x M in the presence of the equilibrium population n on M. f (x, M) > 0 : positive probability for the mutant (uniformly in K) to grow to a population of size O(K); f (x, M) < 0 : the mutant population dies out with probability tending to one (as K ) before this happens. We need to generalize this notion to the case when fast phenotypic switches are present. Loren Coquille (IAM-Bonn) CIRM - June 15, / 43
42 Mutations and switches : Polymorphic Evolution Sequence Consider an initial population of genotype g (associated with l different phenotypes p 1,..., p l ) which is able to mutate at rate µ to another genotype g, associated with k different phenotypes p 1,..., p k. Consider as initial condition n(0) = (n (g,p1 )(0),..., n (g,pl )(0)) a stable fixed point, n, of the following system: l l l ṅ (g,pi ) = n (g,pi ) b i d i c ij n (g,pj ) s ij + s ji n (g,pj ). j=1 As long as the mutant population has less than ɛk individuals (with ɛ 1), the mutant population (g, p 1 ),..., (g, p k ) is well approximated by a k-type branching process with rates: p i p i p i with rate b i p i with rate d i + l l=1 c il n l for i, j {1,..., k}. p i p j with rate s ij j=1 j=1 Loren Coquille (IAM-Bonn) CIRM - June 15, / 43
43 Mutations and switches : Polymorphic Evolution Sequence Multi-type branching processes have been analysed by Kesten/Stigum and Atreya/Ney. Their behavior are classified in terms of the matrix A, given by f 1 s s 1k A = s 21 f s k1... f k where f i := b i d i l c il n l l=1 The multi-type process is super-critical, if and only if the largest eigenvalue, λ 1 = λ 1 (A) > 0. It is thus the appropriate generalization of the invasion fitness: F (g, g) := λ 1 (A). k j=1 s ij. Loren Coquille (IAM-Bonn) CIRM - June 15, / 43

46 Conclusion Still a lot to understand... Biologically : measure precise parameters appearing in the model check predictions (e.g. therapy with 2 types of T-cells) etc. Mathematically : How do the transition probabilities between different relapses scale with K? What happens if the deterministic system has limit cycles? How does the birth-reducing competition affect the mutation probability in presence of treatment? etc. Loren Coquille (IAM-Bonn) CIRM - June 15, / 43
