Stanford is a NIH Designated Cancer Center.

The OCF list only contains NIH Designated COMPREHENSIVE Cancer Centers.

I am not sure what it is that Stanford has elected not to do that prevents it from holding the CCC designation, but A NIH designation CC has a scientific agenda that is primarily focused on laboratory, population science, or clinical research, or some combination of these three components.

A NIH designated CCC generally does all the above (substantially bridges these three scientific areas) and provides professional and public cancer education along with providing clinical cancer treatment and advances to the community it serves.

Almost all NIH designated CCC are University Medical Schools/Hospitals.

There are many other excellent accredited cancer centers that primarily just provide treatment (not research, education, etc..) and these may be closely affiliated with a NIH CC or CCC. But, unless you know otherwise, it is always best to refer to major NIH centers that treat numerous OC patients.
