What happens when a digital health pioneer becomes a cancer patient and discovers his own doctors missed a life-threatening diagnosis? Steve Brown, founder and CEO of CureWise, shares his remarkable journey from building one of the first remote patient monitoring companies to nearly losing his life to a rare blood cancer that went undetected until the Palisades Fire displaced him to new doctors with fresh eyes.In this episode of Inside MedTech Innovation, Steve joins Shannon Lantzy to discuss how he built AI agents that diagnosed his own cancer using the same data his original doctors had reviewed, then used those same tools to advocate for off-label precision treatments that saved his life. Now, he's building CureWise to give every patient access to the same level of personalized treatment insights.Steve and Shannon explore:Why the standard of care often represents what we knew years ago, not what's possible todayHow AI can synthesize all of medical knowledge to enable truly personalized medicineThe critical difference between building healthcare solutions for others versus being patient zeroWhy precision oncology requires new regulatory paradigms beyond randomized controlled trialsHow patient advocacy powered by AI can level the playing field in cancer treatmentThe role of FDA innovation in accelerating life-saving treatments without compromising safetyTimestamps00:00 The Promise and Perils of AI in Healthcare00:08 Introducing Steve Brown: A Digital Health Pioneer01:30 Steve's Journey from Video Games to Healthcare Innovation03:52 The Impact of Remote Patient Monitoring06:15 A Personal Health Crisis: Steve's Cancer Diagnosis14:10 The Role of AI in Steve's Diagnosis and Treatment23:00 The Vision for Cure Wise: Precision Medicine for All25:04 The Future of Personalized Medicine27:21 Navigating Medical Scenarios and Doctor Conversations28:54 The Role of AI in Personalized Medicine29:20 Business Model and Future Vision30:36 Challenges and Opportunities in AI and Healthcare32:20 Focus on Cancer and Personalized Medicine35:22 Patient Education and Advocacy37:54 Regulatory Innovation and AI47:02 The Paradigm Shift in Medical Knowledge49:30 Rapid Fire Questions and Final ThoughtsFollow Shannon and Steve:Connect with Shannon: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannonlantzy/ Website: https://www.shannonlantzy.com/ Connect with Steve: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brown2020/ Website: curewise.com
