Which centers in Switzerland offer treatment with DCVax-Brain, the Dendritic Cell vaccine for brain cancer?
Question:
Which centers in Switzerland exactly offer this treatment? What are the top neurology/ neurosurgery hospitals in Switzerland?
Answers:
From what I understand the drug DCVax-Brain has not been officially approved in Switzerland, the company hasn't even filed there yet, and the reports were premature.

However, the quickest way to obtain information is to call Northwest Biotherapeutics:

Contact information is available on the above press release.
The second way to locate this information is to place a phone call to a medical facility in Switzerland and ask! It may be available by Clinical Trial.

The third way to locate this information would be to go to an online support group for brain cancer and ask the people there who have probably already checked this out.
And, if you are in the US you can get this through a Clinical Trial by calling whoever sponsors the trial. If you don't want to be in the trial, ask about compassionate use. You can often obtain new drugs off trial if you make a request. Or, call the company directly and ask them.
