“…In this century, cancer remains one of the most dangerous killers of humankind; every year millions of people suffer from cancer and die from this disease throughout the world; see Boyle et al [1]. Recently, there has been much interest in mathematical modeling of immune response with the intruder (see, e.g., Liu et al [2,3], Yafia [4], d'Onofrio et al [5,6], and the references cited therein). In fact, mathematical models are feasible to propose simple models which are capable of displaying some of the essential immunological phenomena.…”

“…Modelling tumour-immune interaction has attracted much attention in the last decades. This interaction is very complex and mathematical models can help to shape our understanding of dynamics this biological phenomenon [1,3,4,[6][7][8]15,22,23,27,29]. Much research has focussed on how to enhance the anti-tumour activity, by stimulating the immune system with vaccines or by direct injection of T cells or cytokines [24,25].…”

“…Mathematical models of tumor growth and tumor-immune system interaction are derived by mainly using Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) (see, for example, [7], [14], [17], [20] and references therein), Delay Differantial Equations (DDEs) (see, for example, [2], [3], [4], [8], [9], [11], [21], [22] and references therein) and Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) (see, for example, [10] and references therein). One of ODE models was introduced by Kuznetsov and Taylor [16] which has the following form:…”

“…Time delays in connection with tumor growth also appear in [2], [3], [4], [8]. Yafia ([21], [22]) first showed the existence and stability of periodic solutions of system (1.5) through Hopf bifurcation when the immune response negative (i.e., ω < 0) at which a biologically meaningful nonnegative solution exists. Later, he gave Hopf bifurcation analysis of system (1.5) by using σ as a bifurcation parameter in [23] and τ as a bifurcation parameter in [24].…”
