A computer-implemented method for determining an optimal treatment
protocol for a disease related to angiogenesis, comprising creating an
angiogenesis model including pro-angiogenesis and anti-angiogenesis
factors. Effective vessel density (EVD) is incorporated as a factor
regulating switching on and switching off of at least one component in
the angiogenesis model. Effects of vasculature maturation and mature
vessels destabilization are incorporated. Pro-angiogenesis and
anti-angiogenesis factors, which can influence changes in state of a
tissue are selected. Effects of drugs in the pro-angiogenesis and
anti-angiogenesis factors are incorporated. A plurality of treatment
protocols in a protocol space is generated. A best treatment protocol
based on a pre-determined criteria.
