According to experimental data, administration of the drug cisplatin into the tumor during radiation therapy can increase its effectiveness. To date, there is no model that can predict the effectiveness of such therapy. The development of such a model is an important task for planning therapy. The goal of this work is to find analytical relationships for the survival of cells exposed to the combined effect of radiation and cisplatin in vitro. Materials and methods. Based on digitized experimental data on cell survival from a number of publicly published works, the corresponding linear-quadratic (LQ) approximation coefficients for survival were found for irradiation without the drug <span class="math">\( \alpha_R , \beta_R \)</span>, and for combined exposure to radiation and cisplatin <span class="math">\( \alpha_{RC} , \beta_{RC} \)</span>. Next, a regression analysis of the resulting set of coefficients and cell survival when exposed to cisplatin alone <span class="math">\( S_C \)</span>  was performed. Results and Discussion.<span class="math">\( \alpha_{RC} \)</span>  was found to be statistically dependent on <span class="math">\( \alpha_R, \beta_R \)</span> and <span class="math">\( S_C \)</span>. This dependence could be described by several models, the best of which in terms of a number of indicators was <span class="math">\( \alpha_{RC} = \alpha_R + \alpha_R \ln S_C \)</span>, where <span class="math">\( \alpha = -4.27 \pm 0.57 \)</span> is a parameter that is the same for all cell types and experimental conditions. It was found that <span class="math">\( \beta_{RC} \)</span> is statistically dependent on <span class="math">\( \beta_R \)</span>. No signs of dependence of <span class="math">\( \beta_{RC} \)</span> on <span class="math">\( \alpha_R \)</span> and <span class="math">\( S_C \)</span> were found. The best model for <span class="math">\( \beta_{RC} \)</span> was <span class="math">\( \beta_{RC} = \beta_R \)</span>. These models are simple, but they allow predicting the value of cell survival under the combined effect of radiation and cisplatin <span class="math">\( S_{RC} \)</span> from the values <span class="math">\( \alpha_R , \beta_R \)</span> and <span class="math">\( S_C \)</span> only approximately. The obtained models are collated with kinetic equations and a mechanistic interpretation is given, which is based on the hypothesis of a decrease in the rate of recovery of cells from potentially lethal lesions r , with an increase in the radiation dose and cisplatin concentration. Conclusion. The type of statistical dependence of LQ coefficients <span class="math">\( \alpha_{RC} \)</span> and <span class="math">\( \beta_{RC} \)</span> on <span class="math">\( \alpha_R , \beta_R \)</span> and <span class="math">\( S_C \)</span> has been found. In the case of high toxicity of cisplatin (low values of <span class="math">\( S_C \)</span>), the combination of the above-mentioned models for <span class="math">\( \alpha_{RC} \)</span> and <span class="math">\( \beta_{RC} \)</span> allows to make a useful for practical application prediction of cell survival <span class="math">\( S_{RC} \)</span>. The results of this work will help for the future construction of more complex models of the combined effects of radiation and cisplatin, and may also have practical application in the case mentioned above.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Актуальность. Согласно экспериментальным данным введение препарата цисплатин в опухоль при лучевой терапии может повысить ее эффективность. На сегодняшний день не существует модели, способной предсказывать эффективность такой терапии. Разработка такой модели является важной задачей для планирования терапии. Целью настоящей работы является нахождение аналитических соотношений для выживаемости клеток, подверженных комбинированному действию излучения и цисплатина in vitro. Материалы и методы. По оцифрованным экспериментальным данным по выживаемости клеток из ряда опубликованных в открытом доступе работ найдены соответствующие коэффициенты линейно-­квадратичной (LQ) аппроксимации выживаемости при облучении без препарата α<sub>R</sub>, β<sub>R</sub> и при комбинированном воздействии излучения и цисплатина  α<sub>RC</sub>, β<sub>RC</sub> . Далее произведён регрессионный анализ полученного набора коэффициентов и выживаемости клеток при воздействии одного цисплатина S<sub>C</sub>. Результаты и обсуждение. Установлено, что <span class="math">\( \alpha_{RC} \)</span> статистически зависим от <span class="math">\( \alpha_R, \beta_R \)</span>  и <span class="math">\( S_C \)</span>. Данная зависимость может быть описана несколькими моделями, лучшей из которых по ряду показателей является <span class="math">\( \alpha_{RC} = \alpha_R + \alpha_R \ln S_C, \)</span> где <span class="math">\( \alpha = -4,27 \pm 0,57 \)</span> — параметр, одинаковый для всех типов клеток и условий проведения эксперимента. Установлено, что <span class="math">\( \beta_{RC} \)</span>статистически зависим от <span class="math">\( \beta_R \)</span>. Признаков зависимости <span class="math">\( \beta_{RC} \)</span> от <span class="math">\( \alpha_R \)</span> и <span class="math">\( S_C \)</span> не обнаружено. Лучшей моделью для <span class="math">\( \beta_{RC} \)</span> является <span class="math">\( \beta_{RC} = \beta_R. \)</span> Указанные модели просты, но позволяют предсказать значение выживаемости клеток при комбинированном воздействии излучения и цисплатина <span class="math">\( S_C \)</span> по значениям <span class="math">\( \alpha_R, \beta_R \)</span>  и <span class="math">\( S_C \)</span> только приближенно. Полученным моделям сопоставлены кинетические уравнения и дана механистическая интерпретация, в основе которой лежит гипотеза об убывании скорости восстановления клеток от потенциально летальных повреждений \gamma, при увеличении дозы излучения и концентрации цисплатина. Выводы. Установлен вид статистической зависимости LQ коэффициентов <span class="math">\( \alpha_{RC} \)</span> и <span class="math">\( \beta_{RC} \)</span> от <span class="math">\( \alpha_R, \beta_R \)</span> и <span class="math">\( S_C \)</span>. При высоких значениях токсичности цисплатина (низких значениях <span class="math">\( S_C \)</span>) сочетание упомянутых выше моделей для <span class="math">\( \alpha_{RC} \)</span> и <span class="math">\( \beta_{RC} \)</span> позволяет сделать полезный для практического применения прогноз выживаемости клеток <span class="math">\( S_{RC} \)</span>. Результаты данной работы помогут для будущего построения более сложных моделей комбинированного действия излучения и цисплатина, а также могут иметь практическое применение в упомянутом выше случае.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>cisplatin</kwd><kwd>LQ approximation of cell survival</kwd><kwd>photon beam therapy</kwd><kwd>regression analysis</kwd><kwd>kinetic models of cell survival</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>цисплатин</kwd><kwd>LQ аппроксимация выживаемости клеток</kwd><kwd>фотонная лучевая терапия</kwd><kwd>регрессионный анализ</kwd><kwd>кинетические модели выживаемости клеток</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><award-group><funding-source><institution-wrap><institution xml:lang="ru">Работа выполнена в рамках НИР № госрегистрации 123011900016–6.
