Why the study?
Does matched unrelated human umbilical cord blood transplantation improve engraftment and normalize very-long-chain fatty acid levels in a child with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy?
Does matched unrelated human umbilical cord blood transplantation improve engraftment and normalize very-long-chain fatty acid levels in a child with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy?
Matched unrelated human umbilical cord blood transplantation may be a viable source of stem cells for patients with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy when a matched sibling is unavailable.
May offer alternative stem cell source for X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy lacking matched siblings; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
