Bone Marrow/Stem Cell Transplantation at UCLA 

For decades, this comprehensive program has provided a full range of services as a local, regional, national, and international referral center for transplantations for selected malignancies:

• Acute and chronic leukemias
• Aplastic anemia
• Breast cancer
• Congenital immunodeficiency diseases
• Hodgkin's disease
• Lymphomas
• Metabolic diseases of childhood
• Multiple myeloma
• Myelodysplasia
• Testicular cancer
• Unrelated-donor bone marrow transplantation

Our goals include finding new and innovative treatments for malignancies and expanding the effectiveness and applicability of bone marrow transplantation through such means as biologic response modifiers, growth factors, and chemotherapeutic agents.

Protocols involving chemotherapy with or without radiation therapy for patients in remission or relapse are available using bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells from allogeneic, autologous and unrelated donors.
