This paper presents a mathematical analysis of a tumor model first proposed by Skipper and Zubrod. The tumor model is comprised of three compartments, a proliferative compartment, a nonproliferative but viable compartment, and a dead compartment. By the suitable selection of functions describing los
Sheldon [l] demonstrated the usefulness of mathematical models in cancer research for gaining clinical insight. In particular, he showed that greater difficulties have to be surmounted when modelling chemotherapy treatment of cancer tumours as compared with radiotherapy treatment. The present analys
