Stemming Success: Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Market Insights

Author : anushka jadhav | Published On : 02 May 2024

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a medical procedure which involves transplanting multipotent hematopoietic stem cells to reconstitute healthy bone marrow and blood. It is used to treat various blood cancers such as leukemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma. HSCT helps replace a patient's damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy blood stem cells. The procedure relies on using high doses of chemotherapy and radiation therapy to eliminate cancer cells from the body before the transplant. The global hematopoietic stem cell transplantation market is estimated to be valued at US$ 2.88 Bn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 11.% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030.
