Patient survival information for this center

This center's actual 1-year survival results are similar to the expected rate for this center*.

The survival information we have for this center includes ONLY:

Patients who had their FIRST ALLOGENEIC transplant (cells from a related or unrelated donor/cord blood) during 2020, 2021, 2022 and
Who had their transplant at a U.S. transplant center, and
Who had follow-up information provided by the transplant center for analysis

For this center, we have survival information for 74 patients.

The actual 1-year survival of these patients is 72.8%.

Compared to similar patients transplanted at all centers in the U.S., we expect that the 1-year survival for patients at this center to be in a range between 63.5% and 82.9%.

For help with understanding these statistics, please see Understanding Transplant Outcomes.

For overall survival for all patients transplanted with a specific disease, please see U.S. Patient Survival report

at bloodcell.transplant.hrsa.gov.

* The expected survival rate for a transplant center can be below, similar to, or above the range listed. This is based on comparing patient survival at all centers that treated patients with similar diseases.

The survival rate cannot tell how you will do with your transplant. Talk to your doctor to understand your prognosis or the likely course of your disease.

Treatments may be similar for diseases within a group. It might be helpful to look at centers that have done transplants for a specific disease and centers that have done transplants for any corresponding broad disease categories.

Centers are not required to report autologous transplants so the numbers might be incomplete.
