Effect of Matching of Class I HLA Alleles on Clinical Outcome after Transplantation of Hematopoietic Stem Cells from an Unrelated Donor

Abstract

Genomic typing of class I HLA alleles adds substantially to the success of transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells from unrelated donors, even if the donors are serologically identical to their recipients with respect to HLA-A, B, and DR antigens.
