Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A system and method for determination of efficient time(s) for chemotherapy delivery analyze time-dependent fluctuations of at least one biological variable measured in blood samples obtained from clinical patients and determine one or more favorable times for the pharmacological treatment of the patient. The systems and/or methods determine optimal time(s) for chemotherapy delivery based on serial measurements of the one or more biological variables. In some examples, the biological variables are immune variables. The determination may be patient-specific in the sense that only those biological variables satisfying desired threshold values may be used to determine optimal treatment times for each individual patient.
