        Graft Criteria

        CB units will be selected according to the current MSKCC unit selection algorithm. High
        resolution 8 allele HLA typing and recipient HLA antibody profile will be performed. Cord
        unit selection will occur based on HLA-match, total nucleated cell (TNC) and CD34+ cell
        dose adjusted per patient body weight. The cord bank of origin will also be considered.
        Donor specific HLA antibodies, if present, will also be taken into consideration and may
        influence the selection of the graft. CB graft will consist of one or two CB units (CBU)
        based on MSKCC selection algorithm.

          -  Each CB unit must be at least 3/8 HLA-matched to the patient considering
             high-resolution 8-allele HLA typing.

          -  For malignant diseases follow MSKCC CBU selection algorithm

          -  For non-malignant diseases, CBU will be required to have > 5 x 107 TNC/kg; high HLA
             allele level match is preferable
