Purpose of this Study
We are doing this study to learn more about the outcomes of people who get a transplant of cord blood stem cells versus people who get a transplant of adult donor stem cells. This study is important because we could learn more about different donor options for transplant patients.
Who Can Participate?
Eligibility
Adults ages 19-80 who had an allogeneic (donor cells) stem cell transplant at least 1 year ago.
