Steven G. Ayre, M.D. practices "Comprehensive Cancer
Care" at his Contemporary Medicine clinic in the Chicago
area. In addition to providing treatment for the actual cancer, this
comprehensive care also includes evaluations and counseling on nutrition for support of the immune system, and techniques in mind-body
medicine for healing of the body, the mind, and the deeper
dimensions of our being. All this makes up comprehensive cancer care.
Cancer treatment at Contemporary Medicine is done using Insulin
Potentiation Therapy (IPT). IPT is an innovation in cancer care
using insulin to magnify the powerful cell-killing effects of ordinary
chemotherapy drugs, which can then be used in very low doses. Because
cancer cells have so many more insulin receptors than normal cells,
insulin acts on them much more strongly. The end result here is that the
chemotherapy drugs get effectively targeted just on the cancer cells to
kill them, with little or no effects on normal tissues. Thus IPT can avoid
the dose-related side effects of chemotherapy. Very importantly, being
free from chemotherapy side effects, patients receiving cancer treatment
with IPT are much more available to do their work on nutrition and
mind-body medicine.

The information on this page is provided by
The Cancer Cure Foundation based on information we have received from a
variety of sources, including the clinic itself, feedback from people who
have gone to the clinic, and in some cases from clinic tours. The listing
of a doctor or clinic here does not signify an endorsement by the Cancer
Cure Foundation, unless we have indicated it. We encourage you to check
out each clinic by visiting the clinic if possible, talking to people who
have gone to the clinic (ask the clinic for contact information of people
who have gone to the clinic), and by checking with other
organizations as to what they know about the clinic. There are also
some forums you can join to
get feedback from others. We would also be happy to tell you what we know
about any of these clinics.
If you do go to any of these clinics for treatment, be sure to mention
you heard about them through The Cancer Cure Foundation, and be sure to
let us know about your experience, positive or negative. Any feedback you
can offer may help others who are trying to decide which clinic to go to
or which therapy to use.
