Welcome to the UK’s only private proton beam therapy centre

At Proton International London, we offer an advanced form of radiotherapy known as proton beam therapy (PBT).

Treatment is available to private patients from the UK and worldwide at our treatment centre in the esteemed University College Hospital in London, in partnership with University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (UCLH).

If you are here, then perhaps you are researching cancer treatment for yourself or a loved one. Firstly, we understand how overwhelming this can feel, and we’re here to offer clarity and reassurance. Our website is designed to give you all of the information you need about proton beam therapy to help you make informed decisions and take your next step with confidence.

What is CAR T-cell Therapy?

The innovative treatment is genetically engineered for each individual, giving you more personalized treatment options than ever before.CAR T-cell therapy is a type of cancer treatment called immunotherapy. It is FDA approved for adults with relapsed lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Immunotherapy uses your body’s own cells to fight cancer.

The first step is to collect T-cells from your blood through a simple process called apheresis. Those cells are shipped to a laboratory where they are genetically engineered to produce special receptors (CAR) that identify and attack cancer cells. The CAR T-cells are multiplied, frozen, and shipped back to Sylvester.
Then, low dose chemotherapy treatments are given to you to make room for the CAR T-cells, which are delivered in one infusion. This treatment requires hospitalization so the patient can be closely monitored for side effects or complications.

What is proton beam therapy?

Proton beam therapy is an advanced type of radiotherapy that uses highly charged particles to deliver radiation to cancer cells, to stop them growing and spreading.

What are the benefits?

Proton beam therapy targets tumours with greater precision than traditional radiotherapy, reducing the risk of short and long-term side effects.

What can I expect?

Proton beam therapy treatment sessions usually take around an hour, five days a week, for several weeks. It is delivered via a specialist proton beam machine from outside the body and is painless.

Who is it for?

Proton beam therapy is suitable for treating cancer where precision is vital to avoid damage to healthy cells, such as in children and adults with brain, spinal, and prostate cancer (among others).

Who We Are

Proton beam therapy (PBT) is an advanced form of radiotherapy used to treat cancer (see the types of cancer we treat below). Unlike conventional radiotherapy, it delivers a more powerful and precise dose to the tumour, reducing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. This can lower the risk of side effects and, in turn, improve quality of life. This is particularly helpful in treating children, whose bodies are still developing, or in adults, where vital organs are at risk from long-term side effects.

Who We Are

WORLDWIDE MEDICAL SERVICES (ONCOLOGY SPECIALISTS) is part of a global oncology network dedicated to helping patients access world-class cancer treatment anywhere in the world.

We work closely with leading cancer hospitals and specialist oncologists across countries including the USA (California, Florida, Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Alaska) and other international medical centres.

Cancers We help access

In the UK, proton beam therapy isn’t approved for every type of cancer, and in many cases, conventional radiotherapy remains the most appropriate treatment.

Proton Beam Therapy is not suitable for every type of cancer, and treatment eligibility depends on individual medical assessment, including cancer type, location, and stage. In many cases, conventional radiotherapy or other standard oncology treatments may remain the most appropriate and effective option.

At WORLDWIDE MEDICAL SERVICES (ONCOLOGY SPECIALISTS), we ensure every patient receives a thorough evaluation and access to the most suitable treatment pathway recommended by leading international oncology specialists.

Brain cancer and neurological tumours

Frequently asked questions

What are the risks of radiotherapy?

Radiotherapy is a well-researched and widely used cancer treatment, backed by decades of clinical trials. However, because it works by damaging the DNA of cells, it can affect nearby healthy tissue, resulting in side effects. The NHS and other leading healthcare providers take great care to minimise these risks and provide comprehensive support to help manage any side effects.

Proton therapy can significantly reduce the risks of side effects by targeting tumours more precisely, limiting radiation exposure to healthy tissue.

How can I access proton beam therapy?

The treatment at Proton International London is available to insured and self-pay patients, both from the UK and abroad. The NHS refers several hundred patients each year for treatment at The Christie NHS Foundation Trust in Manchester and to clinics abroad. To explore your suitability for PBT referral, discuss it with your care team and oncologist in the first instance. As a self-pay patient from the UK or abroad, you can contact us at Proton International London to request a consultation.

Will my insurance cover proton therapy?

We work with all major medical insurance providers, and many patients have their treatment covered. If you’ve been recommended proton beam therapy and have private health insurance, it’s important to check with your insurer to confirm that it’s included in your policy.

If you’d like help, our team is more than happy to speak with your insurer on your behalf. Just share your insurer’s name and your membership number, and we’ll take it from there.
