I am just wondering if the UK medical systems support new immunotherapy like lenvima and keytruda or carbozantinib plus opdivo
What sort of therapies do the UK give in general for the stage 4 cancer patients.

I can only speak from the experience of being a melanoma patient. Keytruda (known as Pembrolizumab in the UK) and Opdivo (known as Nivolumab in the UK) are routinely given as treatment for Stage 4 melanoma patients and as adjuvant treatment for a year for Stage 2 & Stage 3 patients. You need to be more specific as to which type of cancer you have, for a more detailed reply to your question.
