ARTOI’s President: Professor Massimo Bonucci
Over ten years after the birth of ARTOI, the initial goal of mitigating the side effects of conventional cancer therapies, thus improving the quality of life of the cancer patient, has been widely achieved. Besides, for patients treated with integrative therapies, there is evidence of increased life expectancy, especially when integrative therapies are maintained over time and are associated with an adequate lifestyle.
This has allowed us to change the paradigm of oncological pathology itself: from ‘incurable’ to ‘sustainable’.
