It is essential to finely adjust chemotherapy drug doses for the patient's survival and comfort in terms of side effects during the treatment process. In this study, a well-known anti-cancer drug scheduling patient model was used. This patient model was controlled by an optimized fractional order proportional-integral-derivative (FOPID) controller. In the optimization process five different swarm-based metaheuristic algorithms such as AHA, GWO, PSO, SSA, and WOA were used. To compare their performances, each algorithm was run independently 30 times and statistical data was collected. As a result of the simulation studies, the GWO-based optimal FOPID (GWO-FOPID) and PSO-based optimal FOPID (PSO-FOPID) controllers outperformed with the final number of cancer cells (CCs) of 35.253 and 35.255, respectively. Moreover, the highest performance index of 24.07 was achieved for these controllers.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/embargoedAccessCancer CellsControlled Drug DeliveryControllersDiseasesDrug DosageConference Object10.1109/ELECO60389.2023.10415998N/A
