Immunotherapy at HCA UK

We ensure that you have rapid access to our range of immunotherapy treatments. Immunotherapy is only available for certain types of cancers, your consultant specialist can advise you on if immunotherapy may be a suitable treatment option for you.

We continue to be at the forefront of innovative cancer treatments and work with leading cancer specialists to adopt the latest treatment techniques. No two treatment plans are the same. We take a patient-focused approach, working with you to determine what’s best.

Our highly skilled multidisciplinary team are on hand to help you make those all-important decisions, so you get the right treatment. Immunotherapy can be stressful for cancer patients and their family. Our aim is to help you stay strong, manage side effects and support you through the difficult stages of treatment and recovery.

A closer look at immunotherapy

There are many different types of immunotherapy. Some boost the immune system, helping your body attack cancer cells. Other types are designed to slow down the proteins that help cancer cells grow. Types include:

  • Monoclonal antibodies (MABs)
  • Checkpoint inhibitors
  • Cytokines
  • CAR-T cell therapy

Immunotherapy can be used as a stand-alone treatment in combatting cancer cells, or it can be used alongside other treatments to strengthen the immune system’s response. This break-through therapy has the potential to treat a broad spectrum of patients.

Depending on the stage and type of tumour, your consultant will identify whether immunotherapy is suitable for you.

No matter what type or stage of cancer, we’re here to listen and make sure that you are well-looked after in every way. We pride ourselves on treating all of our patients like family. HCA UK will support you throughout the entire pathway, from diagnosis and treatment, through to survivorship and aftercare.
