KHCC treats all cancers and performs approximately 100 bone marrow transplants each year. The KHCC BMT program is one of the largest and most successful programs in the Middle East, achieving cure rates compatible with international standards. It oversees both matched allogeneic and autologous transplants, and also performs transplants utilizing cord blood, making it the only program in Jordan and one of two in the region that offers such a highly-specialized procedure. Other non-cancer cases are also treated through the KHCC BMT program including thalassemia, aplastic anemia and other metabolic diseases.
