Patients and their families have received major vindication following the findings of the RCP’s initial review into treatment provided under Prof Ian Brown.

Anne Wilkinson's husband, Trevor, died following months of radiotherapy and Temozolomide chemotherapy for a brain tumour. Now, she's demanding answers.

Prof Ian Brown's patients were told that treatment was lifesaving but UHCW later confirmed it was neither evidence-based nor aligned with NICE guidance.

Despite guidelines recommending a maximum of six chemotherapy cycles, Lucy was prescribed over 75 across seven years — long after her scans showed no evidence of progression.

Across the UK, neurosurgery and neuro-oncology services at several NHS Trusts have been subject to independent reviews, regulatory scrutiny and (in some cases) Police investigations.

Prolonged chemotherapy treatment at University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire has sadly had a devastating and irreversible impact on David's life.

Concerns about chemotherapy now point to systemic failings involving neuro-oncology clinicians, neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists and more at UHCW.

Patients affected by the extended use of adjuvant Temozolomide chemotherapy have received a letter from University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust.

As seen on ITV's Good Morning Britain, we're calling for an extended patient safety review and independent investigation into an unnecessary chemotherapy regime.

We’re the only solicitors to have been working with patients affected by Prof Ian Brown's long-term Temozolomide chemotherapy treatments since April 2024.

Recent revelations have raised concerns about patients who were subjected to prolonged temozolomide chemotherapy treatments at the University Hospitals of Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Foundation Trust.
