8. How Is Blood Cancer Treated?
As with other cancer types, there are a variety of available treatments for blood cancer. The type of treatment your doctor recommends will depend on your age, the type of cancer you have, whether it’s spread to other body parts, and how fast it’s progressing.
Common treatments for blood cancers include targeted therapies, cancer surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy, and stem cell transplantation.
