- Amelia, blood stem cell recipient
Donor for All research gave Amelia the chance for a cure
Amelia, who is half Indian and half African American, faced nearly impossible odds in finding a fully matched donor due to her uncommon HLA type. A clinical trial supported by the Donor for All initiative offered her a new path to a cure. Should the youngest blood stem cell donor be the top choice?
Results from a recent study reveal surprising insights into donor age and patient outcomes. Could expanding age criteria improve survival rates?
