Hematopoietic engraftment and survival in adult recipients of umbilical-cord blood from unrelated donors.
N Engl J Med
June 2001
Department of Medicine, Ireland Cancer Center at University Hospitals of Cleveland and Case Western Reserve University, OH 44106-5065, USA.
Background: Umbilical-cord blood from unrelated donors who are not HLA-identical with the recipients can restore hematopoiesis after myeloablative therapy in children. We studied the use of transplantation of umbilical-cord blood to restore hematopoiesis in adults.
Methods: Sixty-eight adults with life-threatening hematologic disorders received intensive chemotherapy or total-body irradiation and then transplants of HLA-mismatched umbilical-cord blood.
