Abstract
Cell kinetics describe the dynamic processes involved in growth or regression of tumors in untreated hosts and in hosts perturbed by therapy or other factors. Changes in tumor volume are determined by the cell population kinetics, i.e., the length of the tumor cell cycle and its phases, the growth fraction, the rate of cell loss or cell death, and the volume of noncellular components of the tumor. The observed response of tumors to therapy is determined by all of these factors.
