Leukemia Diagnostics
Accurate diagnosis is the first step. The process starts with a clinical evaluation by a hematologist. The diagnostic package typically includes several key tests. This may cost around $5,500. Standard tests include:
- Blood tests and biochemical analysis.
- Bone marrow aspiration to examine cells directly.
- Immunophenotyping to identify cell types.
- Advanced NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) leukemic panel for genetic markers.
- Cyto-genetic and molecular tests for chromosomal abnormalities.
These results help determine the exact type of leukemia and guide the treatment plan.
Available Treatment Options
Medicana provides several treatment pathways depending on the diagnosis. The first step is often chemotherapy to achieve remission. All treatments come with inclusive patient support services. These services cover hospital transfers, translation, and accommodation for a companion.
The main treatment options are:
- Induction Chemotherapy: This is a systemic IV treatment to destroy leukemia cells. It typically costs around $22,000. Hospitalization is included in the package.
- HLA-Matched Transplant (Relative): This is an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HPSCT) from a matched sibling or relative. The procedure may cost about $60,000. It involves a 4-6 week hospital stay.
- HLA-Matched Transplant (Non-Relative): This uses stem cells from a matched unrelated donor. This option typically runs around $65,000.
- Haploidentical Transplant: This is a semi-mismatched transplant from a family donor. It is an option when a full match is unavailable. The price for this advanced procedure is around $70,000.
Each transplant option is performed by the specialized hematology team. Patients undergo close monitoring during the required 4-6 weeks of hospitalization.
