Overall survival
Should we use in children and adults the same criteria for UCB unit choice?
Not at all

Policy on cell dose for UCB unit choicePolicy on cell dose for UCB unit choice
• Most transplant centers use the number of collected TNC as the only cell dose criteria for unit choice
– Greater TNC dose threshold for higher degree of HLA mismatch
• 2.5 – 3.5 × 107/kg if 0 or 1 HLA mismatches
• 3.5 – 5 × 107/kg if 2 HLA mismatches
Is this policy reasonable?No, use both collected TNC and CD34+ cells
CD34+ measurement is now CD34+ measurement is now almostalmost standardizedstandardized
• CD34+ quantification performed at NetCord CB banks according to a uniform protocol (ISHAGE)
• Quality control available and likely required for accreditation in near future
– i.e. Proficiency testing UKNEQAS

Guidelines for UCB unit choiceGuidelines for UCB unit choice Eurocord 2009 criteria for malignant disorders
• UCB unit with 5/6 or 6/6 HLA match
– Collected TNC > 2.5 × 107/kg
– Collected/infused CD34+ cells > 1.2 × 105/kg
• UCB unit with 4/6 HLA match
– Collected TNC > 3.5 × 107/kg
– Collected/infused CD34+ cells > 1.7 × 105/kg

Concluding remarksConcluding remarks
• Selection of an adequate UCB unit is essential for success of UCB transplants
• The number of collected CD34+ cells must be included among the cell dose criteria
• Currently accepted thresholds for collected TNC and CD34+ cells need to be properly reviewed
• Additional criteria for UCB choice may be valuable but always remember that the major advantage of UCB is fast availability: do not delay transplant by adding more and more criteria
