Treatment for Mast Cell Leukemia
There is no standard treatment for MCL, because it is not a common condition. No particular treatment has shown effective results.
In some cases, doctors prescribe certain drugs such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors and several chemotherapies used to treat myeloid leukemia. Your doctor might recommend allogeneic bone marrow transplants. This process involves substituting transplanted bone marrow stem cells from a donor for damaged cells by chemotherapy.
Doctors might recommend a mental health professional who specializes in the needs of people with cancer. Corticosteroids can decrease the mast cells in the body and reduce the symptoms (cardiac failure, flushing and pain). Proton pump inhibitor is also used to reduce the risks of loosing blood in the gastrointestinal tract.
