Blood Cancer

Cancer Care

Blood cancers, such as leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma, affect how the body produces and uses blood cells. We’re here to offer you compassionate care, the latest treatment methods and a path toward recovery.

Stem Cell Transplant for Blood Cancer

A stem cell transplant is a specialized treatment used to replace diseased or damaged cells in blood cancers with healthy cells. This process is often critical for patients whose cancer or treatments have compromised their body’s ability to produce healthy blood cells. Our physicians may recommend stem cell transplants as part of your individualized care plan, depending on the type and progression of your cancer.

Types of Stem Cell Transplants

Stem cell transplants come in different forms, each tailored to meet the unique needs of your condition:

  • Autologous Transplants

    This approach uses your own stem cells, collected before high-dose chemotherapy or radiation therapy. After treatment, your cells are returned to you, aiding in your recovery and helping restore blood cell production.

  • Allogeneic Transplants

    In this type of transplant, healthy stem cells are collected from a compatible donor, often a close relative. This option is used when your own cells may not be viable or could be compromised by the disease. Allogeneic transplants also have the potential to help your immune system fight cancer cells.

  • Syngeneic Transplants

    Rarely, identical twin siblings can serve as donors, offering a unique opportunity for a syngeneic transplant. This type of transplant offers fewer complications due to the genetic match between you and your twin.
