- Cancer Vanguard Evaluation. As part of the national Cancer Vanguard, RM Partners worked with external evaluators from Technopolis Group and Optimity Advisors to determine the impact of its work on cancer outcomes and patient experience; the value delivered across all three Vanguard partners; and whether the work can be replicated. The purpose was not to determine a ‘one size fits all’ model of care but rather to identify opportunities to learn from the work of the Vanguard and spread this learning nationally amongst the other 16 Cancer Alliances. There is also an Executive Summary and an Illustrative Summary.

The Cancer Vanguard was a partnership led by The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, and University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
The project was completed in 2018.
