contents In this paper we study the growth of a tumor colony of multilayer type and focus on how the tumor grows from a near flat (when compared to the length of the tumor as, for instance, in the case of a bone tumor in a femur) initial colony. In particular we derive and study a new weakly nonlinear asymptotic model of multilayer tumor growth. The model takes the form of a nonlinear and nonlocal high order system of PDEs. Finally, motivated by the possibility of a finite time collision of the interfaces, we study the well-posedness of this system.
