Blood cancer is an umbrella term for cancers that begin in the blood, bone marrow, or lymphatic system — including leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. Unlike solid tumors, blood cancers are systemic, meaning cancer cells circulate throughout the body and cannot be removed by surgery alone. Treatment is therefore tailored to the specific cancer type, its subtype, genetic features, and the patient's overall fitness. The main treatment philosophies range from oral targeted therapy taken at home daily, to intensive inpatient chemotherapy, to stem cell transplantation that replaces diseased bone marrow entirely. Newer approaches such as CAR T-cell therapy and bispecific antibodies are available at specialist centers for relapsed or refractory disease. Most patients receive a coordinated combination of these modalities rather than a single treatment, and the plan evolves with the disease's response.
Daily oral tablets that block the specific molecular drivers of certain blood cancers, allowing many patients to manage their disease at home with periodic clinic monitoring rather than hospital admission.
Estimated cost: ~$500 – $1,000
Typical tests: CBC with differential and peripheral smear, Bone marrow biopsy and aspirate (if not recent), BCR-ABL PCR / molecular mutation panel (for CML/ALL), Flow cytometry and immunophenotyping, Renal function tests (KFT), liver function tests (LFT), Echocardiogram (cardiac baseline before TKI/BTK inhibitor), CT scan chest, abdomen, and pelvis (staging / baseline), Serum LDH, uric acid, beta-2 microglobulin.

Estimated cost: ~$1,000 – $1,500
Typical tests: CBC with differential and peripheral smear, Bone marrow biopsy and aspirate (if not recent), PET-CT scan (for lymphoma staging) or CT chest, abdomen, pelvis, Serum protein electrophoresis and immunofixation (for myeloma), Beta-2 microglobulin, LDH, uric acid, KFT, LFT, calcium, phosphorus, Echocardiogram (baseline cardiac function), Flow cytometry and immunophenotyping, Hepatitis B and C serology (before rituximab / anti-CD20 therapy). Done in India before admission.

Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~5 days
Hospitalisation: ~5 days
Recovery period (outside hospital): ~14 days recommended
Total stay: approx 24 days
A patient's own stem cells are collected before high-dose chemotherapy and reinfused afterwards to rescue the bone marrow — commonly used in multiple myeloma and relapsed lymphoma after initial treatment achieves remission.
Estimated cost in India: $20,000 – $45,000

Stem cells from a matched donor replace the patient's diseased bone marrow, offering a graft-versus-leukemia immune effect — the most intensive treatment option, typically used in high-risk acute leukemia and certain lymphomas.
Estimated cost in India: $20,000 – $45,000

The patient's own immune T-cells are genetically engineered in a laboratory to recognise and destroy cancer cells, then reinfused — a specialist centre treatment for blood cancers that have not responded to standard therapies.
Estimated cost in India: $35,000 – $60,000
