This center has been performing allogeneic transplants since 1990 and has been an NMDP/Be The Match transplant center since October 1990.

This center's actual 1-year survival results are below the expected rate for this center.

The survival information we have for this center includes ONLY:

1. Patients who had their FIRST ALLOGENEIC transplant (cells from a related or unrelated donor/cord blood) during 2018, 2019, 2020, and
2. Who had their transplant at a U.S. transplant center, and
3. Who had follow-up information provided by the transplant center for analysis

For this center, we have survival information for 76 patients.

The actual 1-year survival of these patients is 63.2%.

Compared to similar patients transplanted at all centers in the U.S., we expect that the 1-year survival for patients at this center to be in a range between 65.2% and 84.0%.
