Doctors use stem cell transplants to treat people who have: 1  Certain cancers, such as leukemia (lu-KE-me-ah). 2  The high doses of chemotherapy and radiation used to treat some cancers can severely damage or destroy bone marrow. 3  A transplant replaces the stem cells that the treatment destroyed.mall numbers of stem cells also are found in the blood and in the umbilical cord (the cord that connects a fetus to its mother's placenta). Another type of stem cell, called an embryonic (em-bre-ON-ik) stem cell, can develop into any type of cell in the body. These cells aren't found in bone marrow.
