Long established cancer hospital in central São Paulo whose haematology reference centre performs autologous and allogeneic bone marrow transplants and CAR-T cell therapy.
A.C.Camargo Cancer Center is a cancer hospital at Rua Professor Antônio Prudente 211 in the Liberdade district of São Paulo. Its own site states the institution has been operating for more than seventy years. Within it, a reference centre for haematological neoplasms brings together diagnosis, treatment and follow-up for blood cancers.
The hospital's page on bone marrow transplantation describes three forms of the procedure: autologous transplant, using the patient's own stem cells; allogeneic transplant from a matched family member; and allogeneic transplant from a matched unrelated donor. It explains two ways of collecting the cells, surgical aspiration from the hip bones through multiple needle punctures, and leukapheresis from a vein in the arm, without admission, after medication has been given to increase the number of circulating cells.
The reference centre page states that the centre offers both bone marrow transplantation and CAR-T cell therapy, a treatment in which a patient's immune cells are modified, and that patients going through these cellular therapies are supported by named navigators. The hospital also runs a referral form specifically for cell therapy, covering CAR-T cells and bone marrow transplant.
Conditions named for transplantation include leukaemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, bone marrow aplasia and immunodeficiencies. The site names a large clinical roster led by the haematologist Jayr Schmidt Filho, and states that service is available in Portuguese, English, Spanish, French, German and Italian.
