Unrelated Hematopoietic Stem Cell Donor Matching Probability and Search Algorithm
Table 3
Unrelated donor search algorithm for high, intermediate, and low probability categories aiming at the identification of 12/12, 10/10, or 9/10 matched donors. This algorithm is based on requesting blood sample from BMDW registries, and histocompatibility testing in the laboratory serving the transplant center(s). Alternatively HLA typing can be performed by the laboratory linked to each registry at the request of the transplant center. Intermediate resolution typing must resolve the main allele groups, for example, B*44:02 versus B*44:03 groups or C*07:01 versus 07:02 groups.

(1)HLA-A, B, C, DRB1, and DQB1 testing is performed by PCR-SSO on microbeads arrays (luminex technology, OneLambda HD reagents) by PCR-SSP (Genovision), and by mono-allelic PCR-SBT (Protrans). HLA-DRB3, DRB5, and DPB1 typing is performed by PCR-SSP. MM : mismatches. |
