Ovarian Cancer Immunotherapy in Israel
What Benefits Does Advanced Ovarian Cancer Immunotherapy in Israel Offer?
Ovarian cancer is broadly defined as the uncontrolled division of abnormal cells in one or both ovaries. These abnormal cells can grow and multiply quickly, creating a mass (tumor) and eventually breaking off to spread (metastasize) to other areas of the body.
Ovarian cancer mainly affects women who have been through menopause and are over the age of 50, but it can sometimes affect younger women.
At early stages, ovarian cancer symptoms may be nonspecific, which means the malignancy often goes undetected until it has spread within the pelvis and abdomen. At this late stage, it is much more difficult to treat as opposed to early-stage ovarian cancer, in which the disease is confined to the ovary.
Surgery to remove one or both ovaries and surrounding organs, including the fallopian tubes, the uterus, and nearby lymph nodes may be the initial form of treatment. Chemotherapy is a recommended treatment option following surgery and can help kill any cancer cells that remain. Other treatments include radiation therapy, hormone therapy, targeted therapy, and especially advanced ovarian cancer immunotherapy.

Benefits of Getting Ovarian Cancer Immunotherapy in Israel
Advanced Treatment:
Medical institutions in Israel and the US often collaborate in cutting-edge cancer research, developing new and effective treatments against the disease, yet Israel has fewer constraints than the US when it comes to adopting novel therapies. Israeli clinical trials still adhere to the highest safety standards, but innovative treatments are generally made available to patients sooner than in the US.
Quality of Care:
Israeli physicians are exceptionally well-trained and often spend even more time on their medical education than American doctors. Also, you can be assured of high standards and strict safety regulations if you choose a hospital accredited by a trustworthy authority.
Cost:
In many countries, healthcare costs can be exorbitant. Without insurance, the costs of cancer treatment can be crippling. Prices are much lower in Israel, averaging 30-80% less than in the US, for example. That said, you’re not trading affordability for quality, since Israeli specialists, medical institutions, equipment, and procedures are among the most advanced in the world.
