Outline • Brief Introduction to TB • Long-term TB evolution • Dynamical models for TB transmission • The impact of social networks – cluster models • A control strategy of TB for the U.S.: TB and HIV Arizona State University
Long History of Prevalence • TB has a long history. • TB transferred from animal-populations. • Huge prevalence. • It was a one of the most fatal diseases. Arizona State University
Transmission Process • Pathogen? Tuberculosis Bacilli (Koch, 1882). • Where? Lung. • How? Host-air-host • Immunity? Immune system responds quickly Arizona State University
Immune System Response • Bacteria invades lung tissue • White cells surround the invaders and try to destroy them. • Body builds a wall of cells and fibers around the bacteria to confine them, forming a small hard lump. Arizona State University
Immune System Response • Bacteria cannot cause more damage as long as the confining walls remain unbroken. • Most infected individuals never progress to active TB. • Most remain latently-infected for life. • Infection progresses and develops into active TB in less than 10% of the cases. Arizona State University
Current Situations • Two million people around the world die of TB each year. • Every second someone is infected with TB today. • One third of the world population is infected with TB (the prevalence in the US around 10-15% ). • Twenty three countries in South East Asia and Sub Saharan Africa account for 80% total cases around the world. • 70% untreated actively infected individuals die. Arizona State University
Reasons for TB Persistence • Co-infection with HIV/AIDS (10% who are HIV positive are also TB infected) • Multi-drug resistance is mostly due to incomplete treatment • Immigration accounts for 40% or more of all new recent cases. Arizona State University
Basic Model Framework • N=S+E+I+T, Total population • F(N): Birth and immigration rate • B(N,S,I): Transmission rate (incidence) • B`(N,S,I): Transmission rate (incidence) Arizona State University
Model Equations Arizona State University
R0 • Probability of surviving to infectious stage: • Average successful contact rate • Average infectious period Arizona State University

What is the role of long and variable latent periods?(Feng, Huang and Castillo-Chavez. JDDE, 2001) Arizona State University
A one-strain TB model with a distributed period of latency Assumption Let p(s) represents the fraction of individuals who are still in the latent class at infection age s, and Then, the number of latent individuals at time t is: and the number of infectious individuals at time t is: Arizona State University

The reproductive number Result: The qualitative behavior is similar to that of the ODE model. Q: What happens if we incorporate resistant strains? Arizona State University

A two-strain TB model(Castillo-Chavez and Feng, JMB, 1997) • Drug sensitive strain TB - Treatment for active TB: 12 months - Treatment for latent TB: 9 months - DOTS (directly observed therapy strategy) - In the US bout 22% of patients currently fail to complete their treatment within a 12-month period and in some areas the failure rate reaches 55% (CDC, 1991) • Multi-drug resistant strain TB - Infection by direct contact - Infection due to incomplete treatment of sensitive TB - Patients may die shortly after being diagnosed - Expensive treatment Arizona State University

Optimal control strategies of TB through treatment of sensitive TBJung, E., Lenhart, S. and Feng, Z. (2002), Optimal control of treatments in a two-strain tuberculosis model, Discrete and Continuous Dynamical Systems • “Case holding", which refers to activities and techniques used to ensure regularity of drug intake for a duration adequate to achieve a cure • “Case finding", which refers to the identification (through screening, for example) of individuals latently infected with sensitive TB who are at high risk of developing the disease and who may benefit from preventive intervention • These preventive treatments will reduce the incidence (new cases per unit of time) of drug sensitive TB and hence indirectly reduce the incidence of drug resistant TB Arizona State University

The two-strain system with time-dependent controls(Jung, Lenhart and Feng. DCDSB, 2002) u1(t):Effort to identify and treat typical TB individuals 1-u2(t): Effort to prevent failure of treatment of active TB 0 < u1(t), u2(t) <1 are Lebesgue integrable functions Arizona State University
Objective functional B1 and B2 are balancing cost factors. We need to find an optimal control pair, u1 and u2, such that where ai, biare fixed positive constants, and tf is the final time. Arizona State University
Numerical Method: An iteration methodJung, E., Lenhart, S. and Feng, Z. (2002), Optimal control of treatments in a two-strain tuberculosis model, Discrete and Continuous Dynamical Systems • Guess the value of the control over the simulated time. • Solve the state systemforward in time using the Runge-Kutta scheme. • Solve the adjoint systembackward in time using the Runge-Kutta scheme using the solution of the state equations from 2. • Update the control by using a convex combination of the previous control and the value from the characterization. 5. Repeat the these process of until the difference of values of unknowns at the present iteration and the previous iteration becomes negligibly small. Arizona State University
