However Incremental Cost-Effective Ratio (ICER sows tat te best control strategy of minimizing cervical cancer among HIV-infected individuals wit low cost is to use te combination of prevention and treatment control strategies. Keywords: HPV Infection HIV Infection Cervical Cancer Optimal Control Cost-Effectiveness 1. Introduction Cervical cancer is a major cause of morbidity and mortality among women in sub-saaran countries and about 70% of cervical cancers are caused by Human Papillomavirus (HPV types 16 and 18 wic are transmitted sexually troug body contact. Some studies ave sown tat HIV-infected women after being infected wit HPV infection ave a ig risk to progress to HPV-related cervical diseases and invasive cervical cancer tan women witout aving HIV infection [1 3]. Te aim of tis work is to study te effect of incorporating tree optimal control strategies to te co-infection model of cervical cancer and HIV diseases. In [15] formulated coinfection model of cervical cancer and HIV diseases but te findings of tis paper differ from te work presented in [15] because te co-infection model incorporates tree optimal control strategies; prevention screening and treatment.. Optimal Control Analysis Here we introduce optimal control strategies to te coinfection model of cervical cancer and HIV disease as presented in [15]. Te co-infection model in [15] is developed as follows: Te total polation of individuals at any time t denoted as is categorized into ten compartments according to te individual s status of infection as follows: Susceptible S HIV-infected individuals no HPV infection individuals ( ( I AIDS individuals no HPV infection ( HPV infected individuals no HIV infection ( I D Unscreened l Screened

In te next part te numerical solutions of optimality system are discussed. 3. umerical Solutions In order to obtain optimal control solutions te optimality system wic consists of two systems namely; te state system and te adjoint system is solved. In solving state equations using forward fourt order Runge-Kutta an initial guess of all controls over time are made and te initial value of state variables are introduced. Having te solution of state functions and te value of optimal controls te adjoint equations are solved using backward fourt order Runge- Kutta by using transversality condition. In tis simulation te weigts are cosen be A 1 = 80 A = 75 A 3 = 50 A 4 = 45 B 1 = 100 B = 110 andb 3 = 10. Oter parameter descriptions and values used in getting numerical results of te co-infection model of cervical cancer and HIV diseases are presented in Table 1. Control strategies are formed and studied numerically as follows 3.1. Strategy I: Combination of Prevention and Treatment Control Strategies Te combination of prevention control strategy u1 and treatment control u are used to optimize objective functional wile setting screening control u 3 equal to zero.

Cost-effectiveness Analysis Here Incremental Cost Effectiveness Ratio (ICER is used to quantify te cost-effectiveness of different strategies. Tis approac is useful to understand wic strategy saves a lot of averted species wile spending low cost. Tis tecnique is needed to compare more tan one competing interventions strategies incrementally one intervention sould be compared wit te next less effective alternative [10]. Te ICER formula is given by Difference in intervention cost ICER= Difference in te total number of infection averted Te total number of infection averted is obtained by calculating te difference between te total number of new cases of individuals aving HPV infection witout control and te total number of new cases of individuals aving HPV infection wit control.

Tus according to Incremental Cost Effectiveness Ratio analysis te combination of optimal prevention and treatment control strategies is te best way of minimizing cervical cancer among women wit or witout HIV infection in our community following te combination of all control strategies. 5. Conclusion Tis paper designed and analyzed a deterministic model for co-infection of cervical cancer and HIV diseases. Te optimal control teory was employed to te main model and analyzed using Potrayagin s Maximum Principle. Te different combination of tree optimal control strategies; prevention screening and treatment were studied numerically. Also cost-effectiveness analysis was performed and te following results were obtained (a Te combination of optimal screening and treatment strategies is not muc powerful way of controlling HPV infection and cervical cancer in te community compared wit oter combination of optimal control strategies as sown in Figure 3. Also applying te combination of all control strategies (prevention screening and treatment is te best way of minimizing co-infection of cervical cancer and HIV diseases in a community as sown in Figure 4. (b In te case of Incremental Cost Effectiveness Ratio analysis te combination of optimal prevention and treatment strategies is te most cost-effective control to minimize cervical cancer among women wit or witout HIV infection. Te second is te combination of all optimal control strategies; prevention screening and treatment. Te tird is te combination of optimal prevention and screening control strategies. References [1] S.
