Killing Cancer Cells Instead of Managing Them - Why Cytotoxic Therapies Matter
OutSmart Cancer - Precision Oncology. Less Guess Work. More Life!
Manage episode 518997451 series 3694353
Most cancer treatments don’t actually kill cancer — they just manage it.
In this episode of Outsmart Cancer, Dr. Dino Prato, founder of Envita Medical Centers, reveals the critical difference between cytostatic and cytotoxic therapies — and why precision oncology focuses on the latter. Cytostatic drugs slow tumor growth, but cytotoxic strategies destroy cancer cells while protecting healthy tissue and strengthening the immune system.
Dr. Prato explains how precision oncology combines deep DNA/RNA sequencing, immune profiling, and spatial biology to customize treatment plans that move beyond managing cancer to truly eliminating it. By designing cytotoxic, immune-driven regimens, Envita’s approach has produced dramatically improved response rates and quality of life for patients.
🎯 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
• The real difference between cytostatic and cytotoxic cancer drugs
• Why most pharmaceutical therapies are designed to manage, not eliminate cancer
• How precision oncology personalizes cytotoxic targeting to kill tumor cells
• The role of immune activation in achieving lasting remissions
• How microdosing and pathway mapping improve quality of life and reduce side effects
• Why combining precision targeting with immune support leads to better outcomes
