DOI: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2019.12.569
Abstract: When selecting a human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matched unrelated donor (URD) for hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) it is generally accepted that donor age, sex, ABO blood group and viral serologic status should be considered. However,… read more here.
