Apheresis of Family Members of Patients Undergoing Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplantation. A Pre-Clinical Study of Selective Depletion of Donor Lymphocytes to Prevent Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease


This protocol has been written to make available apheresis collections from volunteers
matched to various degrees with recipients in order to test and, if necessary refine, the
selective immunodepletion procedure prior to introducing it in a clinical trial.
