About Autologous Bone Marrow Transplant
An autologous stem cell transplant gives you back your own previously collected stem cells after high-dose chemotherapy. It is commonly used for myeloma and relapsed lymphoma.
Stem cells are first collected from your blood after medicine boosts their numbers, then frozen. You then receive high-dose chemotherapy, which destroys cancer cells and also your marrow, and the stored cells are returned through a vein. They restore blood production in around ten to fourteen days, during which you are very vulnerable to infection.
Usually a good fit if
- Multiple myeloma in patients fit for high-dose therapy, after initial treatment.
- Relapsed or high-risk lymphoma that responds to salvage chemotherapy.
- Selected autoimmune conditions or germ cell tumours as specialist care directs.
- Patients fit enough to withstand high-dose chemotherapy.
May need to wait if
- Disease not responding to chemotherapy, as advised by the transplant team.
- Severe heart, lung, liver or kidney disease.
- Failure to collect enough stem cells.
- Active infection or very poor performance status.
How to prepare
- Bring your diagnosis, pathology, scan and treatment history, plus recent bone marrow results.
- Do not stop any medicine unless your doctor instructs you, and review supplements with the team.
- Expect heart, lung and kidney tests, infection screening and a dental check.
- Plan for a central line and stem cell collection before the transplant.
- Arrange a carer and accommodation for the stay and early recovery.
Questions to ask your surgeon
- Why autologous rather than allogeneic transplant for my disease?
- How many stem cells will be collected, and what if collection fails?
- Which high-dose regimen will be used, and what are its side effects?
- How many autologous transplants does your centre do each year?
- What is the chance of remission, and is maintenance therapy planned?
- What follow-up can happen at home?
Red flags when comparing hospitals
- No stem cell collection and storage facility.
- No isolation unit or specialised nursing.
- Centre does not share its transplant experience.
- No plan for maintenance therapy and follow-up.
