Marrow Donor Recruitment

Abstract

The goal of the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP) in utilizing this Navy grant was to recruit and type at least 46,000 new unrelated potential marrow donors for inclusion in the National Marrow Donor Program's Registry. Specifically, it was anticipated that by use of these funds, at least 23,000 ethnic minorities would be added to the file; the file would experience rapid growth; and increasing numbers of completely HLA-AB,DR typed donors would be added to the Registry, thus making the donor search and transplant process more rapid and economical for all patients.
