About blood cancer

Blood cancers affect the production and function of blood cells and include leukemias, lymphomas, and myeloma. They start in the bone marrow or lymphatic system. Treatment is led by haemato-oncologists and may involve chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted agents, and referral for transplant where appropriate.

Signs to watch for

  • Persistent fatigue and weakness
  • Frequent or prolonged infections
  • Easy bruising or unusual bleeding
  • Swollen, painless lymph nodes
  • Bone pain
  • Unexplained fever and night sweats

Most of these have other causes too. If one lasts, see a doctor.

Who is at higher risk

  • Increasing age
  • Certain genetic syndromes
  • Prior chemotherapy or radiation exposure
  • Some viral infections
  • Weakened immune system
  • Family history of blood cancer

Having a risk factor doesn’t mean you will get cancer.

How it’s diagnosed

Diagnosis starts with blood counts and peripheral smear, followed by bone marrow aspiration/biopsy, flow cytometry, and molecular tests. Imaging such as PET-CT stages lymphomas.

Many of these tests can be arranged by your CION team at CION Tolichowki.

Treatment options

Your plan depends on the type and stage of the cancer and on your overall health. CION’s tumour board agrees on it with you.

  • Chemotherapy protocols specific to the subtype

  • Targeted and immunotherapy agents

Common questions

Tap a question to see the answer.

Still unsure? Call 1800 202 8726.

1Is blood cancer curable?

Several blood cancers respond very well to modern protocols, and some subtypes can be cured. Outcomes depend on the exact subtype, stage, and response to therapy — your haemato-oncologist will explain what applies to you.

2Does every blood cancer need a transplant?

No. Many patients are treated with chemotherapy, targeted drugs, or immunotherapy alone. Transplant is reserved for specific subtypes and relapse situations.

3What does a bone marrow test involve?

A thin needle takes a small marrow sample from the hip bone under local anaesthesia. It takes a few minutes and is the key test for classifying blood cancers.
