    Why Most Cancer Drugs Don’t Kill Cancer — They Just Manage It

    Most cancer drugs don’t actually kill cancer — they just slow it down. In this episode of Outsmart Cancer, Dr. Dino Prato, founder of Envita Medical Centers, reveals why many FDA-approved cancer treatments are cytostatic, meaning they only halt tumor growth — not destroy it. The future, he says, is in cytotoxic precision oncology: treatments designed to actually kill cancer cells while sparing healthy ones. Dr. Prato breaks down the crucial difference between managing and eliminating cancer, and explains why the immune system must be engaged for durable remissions. Using deep mapping tools like DNA, RNA, spatial biology, and immune profiling, Envita customizes therapies that combine precision targeting with immune activation — shifting the goal from “control” to “cure-driven remission.” 🎯 What You’ll Learn in This Episode: The real difference between cytostatic and cytotoxic drugsWhy most new cancer drugs are designed to manage, not eliminate, diseaseHow the immune system provides true cytotoxic killing powerWhy immunotherapy (PD-1s, NK cells) needs customizationHow deep mapping (DNA, RNA, spatial biology) reveals better treatment targetsHow Envita achieved up to 35x improved outcomes in late-stage patients* 📊 In published outcomes, precision oncology achieved up to 35x better responses and 43x improved quality of life by focusing on cytotoxic, immune-centered treatment algorithms. *(See Outcomes Disclaimer Below) “Managing cancer isn’t enough — it’s time to design care that actually kills it.” Disclaimer This podcast is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

    Can Immunotherapy REALLY Save Your Life with Melanoma?

    What is the best treatment for advanced melanoma — and why do some therapies fail while others succeed? In this episode of Outsmart Cancer, Dr. Dino Prato, founder of Envita Medical Centers, breaks down the future of melanoma care: deep mapping and immune-centered precision oncology. Using DNA, RNA, and spatial biology, Dr. Prato explains how mapping every pathway — not just BRAF mutations — gives doctors a full picture of the tumor’s environment, revealing why PD-1 inhibitors, BRAF/MEK drugs, and other standard therapies work for only a small group of patients. The key to melanoma, he says, lies in natural killer (NK) cells. These immune cells, trained through AAIT (Autologous Adoptive Immunotherapy), can cross the blood-brain barrier and destroy tumor cells without the side effects of high-dose systemic drugs. By combining deep mapping, immune retraining, and microdosed precision therapies, Envita helps patients move from reactionary care to immune-guided treatment. 🎯 What You’ll Learn in This Episode: • Why most standard melanoma treatments only help a small percentage of patients • How DNA, RNA, and spatial biology mapping reveal hidden resistance pathways • The difference between TIL therapy and AAIT (Autoglutid Adaptive Immunotherapy) • How NK and dendritic cells are trained using DAMPs to target melanoma cells • Why changing the tumor microenvironment is critical for immune response • How AAIT avoids cytokine storms and side effects seen in other therapies 📍 Envita Medical Centers – Scottsdale, AZ 🌐 Learn more: https://www.envita.com Disclaimer This podcast is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

    How Repurposed Drugs Can Supercharge Cancer Care — When Targeted Precisely

    Repurposed drugs can be powerful in cancer care — but only when they’re matched to the right biology. In this episode of Outsmart Cancer, Dr. Dino Prato, founder of Envita Medical Centers, explains how deep multi-omics testing (DNA, RNA, immune, and spatial biology) reveals whether agents like ivermectin, methylene blue, mebendazole, or fenbendazole actually fit your tumor’s molecular targets. Many “alternative” treatments fail because they’re given blindly. Precision oncology replaces that guesswork by combining repurposed drugs, on-label therapies, and immunotherapy support into one guided plan designed for your unique cancer. Dr. Prato shows how these strategies are used at Envita to enhance drug delivery, minimize toxicity, and strengthen immune response. 🎯 What You’ll Learn in This Episode: • Why repurposed drugs can help — but fail without precision targeting • How DNA, RNA, and immune/spatial mapping identify the right off-label options • When microdosing, compounding, or direct tumor delivery may improve results • Why published studies are a starting point — not a one-size-fits-all guide • How combining on-label and off-label medications improves outcomes safely • Why Envita’s precision oncology achieved better responses and fewer side effects 📍 Envita Medical Centers – Scottsdale, AZ 🌐 Learn more: https://www.envita.com 📞 Speak to a care coordinator: 866-830-4576 “Repurposed doesn’t mean random — it means targeted, tested, and personalized.” Disclaimer This podcast is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

    Green Lights & Red Flags in Breast Cancer Care — The Story of Emma’s Missed Diagnosis

    Imagine being told you’re cancer-free — twice — only for the cancer to come back a year later. In this powerful episode of Outsmart Cancer, Dr. Dino Prato, founder of Envita Medical Centers, shares the true story of Emma, a breast cancer patient who followed every standard guideline and still faced a devastating recurrence. Despite surgery, chemo, and a “low concern” blood test, Emma’s cancer returned because her care relied on incomplete data and one-size-fits-all testing. Dr. Prato explains how false reassurance from small genetic panels can leave critical pathways and immune signals undetected. He shows how precision oncology — using deep DNA/RNA sequencing, immune profiling, and spatial biology — reveals the full picture behind cancer recurrence. By combining this information with custom drug design, microdosed chemo, and interventional oncology, Envita helped Emma achieve remission safely and sustainably. 🎯 What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Why small blood tests can falsely reassure patients How most genetic panels miss key mutations and immune factors What deep mapping reveals about tumor recurrence How CIPI (Chemo-Immuno-Precision Injection) targets tumors directly Why precision oncology offers better outcomes with fewer side effects 📊 Precision oncology replaces guesswork with molecular-level accuracy — transforming how cancer is detected, treated, and prevented from coming back. “False reassurance can be deadly.
