Abstract

In this issue of Blood, Eapen et al report that improved allele-level matching for 4 HLA loci (-A, -B, -C, and -DRB1) produces better outcomes in single cord blood transplants (CBTs). We applaud the investigators for advancing cord blood selection criteria that will improve patient survival.
