Title: Application of the Mathematical Model of Tumor-Immune Interactions for IL-2 Adoptive Immunotherapy to Studies on Patients with Metastatic Melanoma or Renal Cell Cancer

Asad Usman, University of Michigan
Chris Cunningham, University of Michigan
Abstract: Recent developments in Adoptive Immunotherapy for cancer management have lead clinicians to employ these techniques in hospital settings. Much data has been produced that indicates the effectiveness of introducing enhanced and expanded immune systems into cancer hosts. In this retrospective study we take another look at the Kirschner mathematical model for immune-tumor interactions in light of data presented by Rosenburg on patients with Metastatic Melanoma or Renal Cell Cancer.
Asad is a senior at the University of Michigan majoring in Mathematics - Biological, and in Psychology. He will be attending Medical School in the Fall of 2006, after studying Biostatistics at the School of Public Health. He also likes kites, because they are reflective of our lives on this earth extending into the heavens in a controlled chaos.
Chris is a Mathematics Major along with a major in Philosophy. He enjoys hiking in midstate Michigan and riding bikes.
