About the Diseases
Leukemia: A cancer of the blood and bone marrow where abnormal white blood cells grow uncontrollably, impairing the body’s ability to fight infection.
Lymphoma: A cancer of the lymphatic system affecting lymphocytes, leading to swollen lymph nodes, fatigue, fever, and weight loss.
Multiple Myeloma: A cancer of plasma cells in the bone marrow, which causes bone pain, anemia, kidney issues, and frequent infections.
Traditional treatments include chemotherapy, radiation, targeted therapies, and immunotherapy. However, stem cell therapy (particularly Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation — HSCT) offers a chance to rebuild the bone marrow with healthy stem cells, restoring the body’s ability to produce normal blood cells.
