Other types of treatment include radiation therapy (high - energy rays that kill cancer cells), targeted therapy (specific drugs that identify and attack cancer cells without hurting normal cells), and stem cell transplants (the introduction of healthy stem cells into the body). (kidshealth.org)
Then a vet gives a medication called Neupogen to drive healthy stem cells into the bloodstream. (pettao.com)
