A bone marrow transplant is also known as stem cell transplant, a treatment which is used to replace an unhealthy marrow with a healthy one. It is used to treat diseases such as blood cancers like leukaemia or lymphoma, bone marrow diseases such as aplastic anaemia and other immune systems or genetic disease like sickle cell disease.

Drugs to treat cancers have progressed phenomenally from blanket effects of chemotherapy to targeting cancer cells only. With the development of targeted therapy and Immunotherapy based on molecular profiling, the treatments options are much safer and effective. The day may not be far off when cancer treatment may become similar to that of diabetes or hypertension.
