Allogeneic Transplant – stem cells are usually donated from a genetically-matched family member (usually a brother or sister). Genetic matching, called HLA matching, is done from blood samples. Other donors for allogeneic bone marrow transplants may include:
- Haploidentical-related donors – in cases where a matched, related donor is not available, haploidentical-related donor match (mostly father or mother) is when the donor is a parent and the genetic match is at least half identical to the recipient.
- Matched unrelated donor – stem cells donated from a volunteer donor registered on any stem cell registry in the world.
