Simple Summary  As computer performance continues to grow at more affordable costs, mathematical modelling and in silico experimentation begin to play a larger role in understanding cancer evolution. The aim of our work is to formulate a control strategy for the Adaptive Cellular Therapy (ACT) that can fully eradicates the Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) cells population in a mathematical model describing interactions between naive T cells, effector T cells and CML cancer cells in the circulatory blood system. Mathematical analysis and numerical simulations allow us to conclude that it is possible to design a personalized administration protocol for the ACT in the form of a pulse train with asymmetrical waves and a fixed amplitude to achieve complete CML cancer cells eradication. The amplitude of the impulse on which the treatment is applied is given by an arithmetical combination of the parameters of the system with at least a duty cycle of 45 min/day.    Abstract  This paper is devoted to exploring personalized applications of cellular immunotherapy as a control strategy for the treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia described by a dynamical system of three first-order ordinary differential equations. The latter was achieved by applying both the Localization of Compact Invariant Sets and Lyapunov’s stability theory. Combination of these two approaches allows us to establish sufficient conditions on the immunotherapy treatment parameter to ensure the complete eradication of the leukemia cancer cells. These conditions are given in terms of the system parameters and by performing several in silico experimentations, we formulated a protocol for the therapy application that completely eradicates the leukemia cancer cells population for different initial tumour concentrations. The formulated protocol does not dangerously increase the effector T cells population. Further, complete eradication is considered when solutions go below a finite critical value below which cancer cells cannot longer persist; i.e., one cancer cell. Numerical simulations are consistent with our analytical results.
