A transplant using the patient's own stem cells (an autologous stem cell transplant) or CAR T-cell therapy are treatment options for patients with certain types of lymphoma.
After being diagnosed with myelodysplastic syndrome, nurse Justin Regan underwent two stem cell transplants using cells from a donor. He recounts his experience and shares what inspired him to continue on through treatment, despite the difficulties.
Long-term health consequences of stem cell transplant using donor cells (an allogeneic transplant) are very real, although they affect a minority of patients and can often be treated effectively. This presentation reviews the most common problems following an allogeneic transplant and the therapies available to treat them.
Resumen: El trasplante con células de un donante (trasplante alogénico) puede causar efectos tardíos en la salud meses o años después del trasplante. Este video describe posibles complicaciones tardías o a largo plazo después del trasplante, cómo reducir el riesgo de desarrollar complicaciones y opciones de tratamiento.
Autologous stem cell transplants are a treatment option primarily for patients with multiple myeloma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. High-dose chemotherapy is part of the treatment and can destroy cancer cells as well as healthy blood cells. Although side effects do occur after an autologous stem cell transplant, most patients can expect a return to normal, healthy life after transplant.
El trasplante que utiliza las propias células (trasplante autólogo) puede causar efectos tardíos en la salud meses o años después del trasplante. Este video describe posibles complicaciones tardías o a largo plazo después del trasplante, cómo reducir el riesgo de desarrollar complicaciones y cuáles son las opciones de tratamiento.
CAR-T cell therapy is a promising new treatment for multiple myeloma. This presentation describes the versions of this therapy that are currently available, their potential complications and side effects, and the risk/benefit calculations in deciding when this treatment is appropriate.
