Hematology and Lymphoma Care in Orange County

City of Hope’s treatment and research has dramatically improved the lives of patients with leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and multiple myeloma — the various cancers associated with blood and plasma. Our multidisciplinary team of specialists – including hematologists, medical and radiation oncologists, scientists, supportive care experts, and other professionals work together to provide coordinated, personalized care for you and your loved ones. Now, this care is available in Orange County, closer to home.
 

• Leading-edge clinical trials for leukemia that are unavailable elsewhere, including CAR T cell immunotherapy, mutation-specific drugs, and novel stem cell transplant regimens.
• Specialized observation programs for slow-growing leukemia subtypes, allowing our doctors to deliver timely therapies when they are the most effective.
• We've extended curative bone marrow transplant therapy — graft-versus-tumor effect rather than chemotherapy and radiation — to patients over the age of 70.
• The haploidentical transplant program has performed 400 transplants in the past five years. These successful half-matches grant second chances for leukemia patients.
• We broke the age barrier for BMT candidacy, and our Aging and Blood Cancers Clinic specializes in transplant evaluation and optimization for patients up to 65 years and older.
• Our transplant program is accredited by the Foundation for the Accreditation of Cellular Therapy, the standard of excellence for blood and bone marrow transplant programs in the United States.
• A long-term follow-up program to minimize the risk of recurrence and improve the quality of life for leukemia survivors.
• We’ve treated nearly 800 patients with immune effector cells, including CAR T cell therapy, targeting both solid and hematologic malignancies.
• Our multiple myeloma survival outcomes at all ages exceed SEER LA and SEER national medians — more than double in Los Angeles and 120% greater than the national rate.
