I don’t know of any but in my experience the consultants who work in the NHS sometimes have private practice nearby... so if you can find out who offers it through say an NHS specialist centre... you might find that they also have a private option.

Unlike melanoma and lung cancer, my understanding was that immunotherapy for OC is still research-based.

Your best bet is to contact research-based centres, for example, the Ovarian Cancer Action Research Centre (Prof McNeish); his secretary, Ms Sophie Lions, can be reached at: +44 (0)20 7594 2792 and at the Royal Marsden (Dr Susana Banerjee) - the contact numbers for the latter's private referral: +44 (0)20 7811 8111 (Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm)

Email : privatepatients@rmh.nhs.uk

Write to: Private Care Referrals, The Royal Marsden, Fulham Road, London SW3 6JJ

I hope this helps and good luck.
