Stem cell transplantation options

Allogeneic transplants at this clinic follow a 150-day protocol, including 90 days of inpatient care and 60 days of outpatient follow-up. Treatment options include:
- Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. This method uses stem cells from a matched donor. The package may cost around $35,000–$60,000 and includes HLA testing, chemotherapy, transfers, and a translator.
- Autologous bone marrow transplantation. The procedure uses the patient's own stem cells after high-dose chemotherapy. It typically runs around $30,900 and includes stem cell collection and the hospital stay.
- Haploidentical transplantation. This is used when no full match exists. It uses cells from a half-matched family member.
The oncology center at Hisar Hospital provides a comfortable environment for international patients. Each transplant room is equipped with HEPA filters to maintain a sterile atmosphere. To learn more about the treatment plans, you can request a consultation through Bookimed.
