Treatment overview

An autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is a treatment in which a patient's own blood-forming stem cells are collected, stored, and then returned to the body after very high-dose chemotherapy has been used to attack the underlying disease. Because these intensive chemotherapy doses also destroy healthy bone marrow, the stored stem cells are reinfused to rescue and rebuild the blood system — a process called engraftment. ASCT is most commonly used for multiple myeloma, Hodgkin lymphoma, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and is generally considered when high-dose chemotherapy is expected to deepen or prolong remission. The entire process unfolds over several weeks in hospital, covering mobilisation of stem cells into the bloodstream, collection by apheresis, conditioning chemotherapy, and the transplant infusion itself, followed by a monitored recovery period until blood counts recover.

Comprehensive Investigations

Estimated cost: ~$1,000 – $2,000

Typical tests for this treatment: CBC with differential, Comprehensive metabolic panel (LFT, KFT, electrolytes), Serum protein electrophoresis and immunofixation (for myeloma), Serum free light chains, 2D Echocardiography (cardiac function assessment), Pulmonary function tests (DLCO, spirometry), Bone marrow biopsy and trephine, PET-CT or CT scan (disease staging), Viral screening — hepatitis B, hepatitis C, HIV, CMV, EBV, PT/INR and coagulation profile. Done in India before hospital admission. Cost varies with case complexity.
