Study Objectives

Study objectives can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary study objectives
Presence or absence of a treatment limiting toxicity
Secondary study objectives
Reduction in time to neutrophil recovery and engraftment post-cord blood transplant.
Other study objectives
Examine correlation between change to erythropoietin (EPO) levels and time to neutrophil recovery and engraftment.
Explore the effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy on erythropoietin (EPO) levels.
