One of the benefits of allogeneic stem cell transplantation is that after the donated cells engraft in the patient, they create a new immune system. The donated cells produce white blood cells that attack any remaining cancer cells in the patient's body.
Why is allogeneic better?
Benefits of allogeneic stem cell transplant: The donor stem cells make their own immune cells, which could help kill any cancer cells that remain after high-dose treatment. This is called the graft-versus-cancer or graft-versus-tumor effect.
When are allogeneic transplants used?
- Acute leukemia.
- Adrenoleukodystrophy.
- Aplastic anemia.
- Bone marrow failure syndromes.
- Chronic leukemia.
- Hemoglobinopathies.
- Hodgkin's lymphoma.
- Immune deficiencies.
