Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are alterations resulting from an abnormal immune response in the gastrointestinal tract, manifesting symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting and abdominal pain. Although the cause of these diseases is unknown, research highlights the interaction between genetic, immunological and environmental factors as causing IBDs. Thus, studies of mathematical models determined by Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) have been carried out to better understand IBDs and develop therapeutic strategies [12, 13, 16]. Consequently, that this article analyses the model proposed by [12] using Optimal Control Theory [8, 10, 11], with the aim of identifying more effective and personalized therapeutic approaches for the treatment of IBDs.
