At Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, our doctors treat blood disorders, whether malignant or benign. Many blood disorders are rare and treating them can be difficult. SCCA was formed, in part, to bring promising new treatments to patients faster. This means that people with blood disorders will find more treatment options at SCCA than might be found elsewhere, including participation in one of the clinical studies conducted at SCCA and its parent organizations, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center and UW Medicine. If necessary, we are fully equipped to provide bone marrow transplantation to treat your disease.
The Fred Hutchinson Transplant Program at SCCA was ranked first in outcomes in a four-year study by the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP) that measured one-year survival rates of patients among 122 transplant centers in the United States.
