My husbands boss underwent a stem cell treatment for MM. It worked and he was cancer free, but just to make sure they did the chemo/radiation bit. Russ died of liver failure. Due to chemo/radiation. And he was cancer free due to his own stem cells. It’s been 4 years and we still just shake our heads.

bump & a stem cell ping

plasma cell a round cell with an off-center nucleus containing coarsely clumped chromatin and deep blue cytoplasm with a clear zone adjacent to the nucleus; these cells are involved in synthesis, storage, and release of immunoglobulins. Pathological plasma cells are seen in multiple myeloma and Waldenström macroglobulinemia. Called also plasmacyte.

Immunoglobulins is another name for antibodies. More links are at the source. It's a good medical dictionary.

This may be news for India, but it happens quite often in the US. Autologous (from self) stem cell transplants are used to treat a variety of malignancies including lymphoma, leukemia, myeloma and others.

The stem cells are removed from the patient through a special separation process and stored. The cancer and remaining bone marrow are destroyed with high dose radiation and chemo, then the stem cells are reinfused.
