Besides increasing the quality of the DKMS database, the Donor Replacement Program is designed to reserve a particular donor for a particular patient if a second donation is needed. It also protects the donor from having to donate for more than one patient.
This program also allows DKMS to act fast in emergency situations such as a donor dropping out at the last minute for medical reasons.
DKMS works with Histogenetics lab to tissue-type donors DNA. Visit Histogenetics at www.histogenetics.com

"Fred Hutchinson/Seattle Cancer Care Alliance has enjoyed a longstanding and productive working relationship with DKMS. In the setting of an ever expanding focus by the US registry, it has proven beneficial in countless situations to work with DKMS for timely and efficient response not only to HR and CT requests but to donor workups as well."
