Seeley was just 2 weeks old when she was diagnosed with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia in her home state of Hawaii. Her local oncology team knew Seeley needed a care team with more experience treating the most challenging leukemias. She needed a team that would leave no stone unturned when developing a personalized treatment plan for her. Seeley's family found that, and more, at Seattle Children's.
Seattle Children’s provides the most advanced treatments for leukemia and lymphoma in the Pacific Northwest. These include immunotherapy, targeted therapies, innovative combinations of chemotherapy, radiation therapy, surgery and stem cell transplants.
In addition to standard diagnostics, our team uses state-of-the-art tests like molecular profiling and next-generation sequencing for children with leukemia. These tests help us find what is unique about your child’s cancer and identify the best treatment options for them.
We strive to improve cure rates and avoid the harsh effects from pediatric lymphoma and pediatric leukemia treatment like chemotherapy or radiation therapy. When possible, we use therapies that target your child’s specific cancer. This approach is called precision (or personalized) medicine.
If your child’s leukemia is harder to treat and more likely to come back after treatment, our High-Risk Leukemia Program team – which includes specialized doctors, nurses and other experts in diagnosis, care and research – will relentlessly search for the best possible treatment options for your child. From the first visit through follow-up, your child will receive seamless and coordinated care. This close collaboration by experts in many specialties – including bone marrow transplant and immunotherapy clinical trials – sets us apart in childhood leukemia care from other academic medical centers.
