Since the first transplant in 1988, cord blood has been used to treat over 8,000 people. Our cord blood bank has contributed to more than 450 cord blood stem cell transplants, and we are currently helping transplant doctors to treat about 4-5 patients per week. To date, more than 70 diseases have been successfully treated with stem cells, and the numbers are going to keep on growing. These include cancers (leukemias, lymphomas, myelomas), other disorders (thalassemias, sickle cell anemia, Fanconi's anemia), and immune deficiency diseases. StemCyte is a top choice for the world's leading transplant centers. Through our years of experience and collaboration with researchers in the field, we have established a process for collecting, preserving, and storing cord blood that is second to none.
