Abstract:
In this work, an improved Gompertz tumor growth model has been introduced. The expressions of steady probability distributions (SPD) of stochastic Gompertz tumor growth models are studied by using the technique of Fokker-Planck equation (FPE), and their dynamic behaviors are also further investigated. Moreover, the expressions for mean, variance, skewness, as well as the mean first-passage time (MFPT) also have been derived. And the influence of noise intensity, correlation coefficient, and noise correlation time of SPD are further analyzed. It is worthy noting that the colored noise intensity has an important impact on SPD. Furthermore, adjusting birth and death parameters also significantly impact SPD, MFPT, mean, variance as well as skewness.

Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...
