Leukemia Treatment in Schneider Center for Children Medicine
About the clinic
Schneider Children's Medical Center of Israel in Petach Tikva serves as the national center for pediatric hematology and oncology. The hospital achieves high success rates by curing over two-thirds of children with cancer in Israel. This facility holds JCI accreditation and the prestigious Accreditation Canada Diamond Status for patient safety.
Advanced leukemia diagnostics
The hospital uses precise tools to monitor treatment success and detect early signs of recurrence. Specialists focus on identifying cancer at the molecular level before physical symptoms appear.
- DAISY-MRD testing. This test identifies the unique genetic barcode of leukemia cells. It helps doctors find minimal residual disease (MRD). This technology detects a potential relapse earlier than standard methods.
- Molecular monitoring. Experts at the center developed this testing protocol with the Technion Institute. It allows for highly personalized treatment adjustments.
Treatment options for childhood leukemia
As a national referral center, the clinic handles the most complex cases of pediatric leukemia. The medical team follows protocols from the Sackler Faculty of Medicine at Tel Aviv University. Treatment focuses on complete recovery and long-term health for young patients.
Bone marrow transplantation is a primary curative method used at the center. The hospital performs different types of transplants based on the patient's needs:
- Allogeneic transplantation. This involves using healthy stem cells from a donor. The center performs these surgeries using cells from siblings or non-blood relatives.
- Autologous transplantation. This procedure uses the patient's own healthy stem cells. It is often used after high-dose chemotherapy.
- Specialized oncological care. Patients receive support in a dedicated pediatric environment. The center manages most of Israel's childhood cancer cases as part of the Clalit Group.
Expertise in pediatric oncology
The facility operates as a dedicated pediatric hospital rather than a general ward. This focus helps the team manage the specific physical and emotional needs of children. The hospital maintains a strong affiliation with Tel Aviv University for ongoing medical research. This connection brings the latest scientific findings directly to the patient's bedside.
