Protocol to Obtain Bone Marrow for Research

Completed

Conditions studied: Bone Marrow Biopsy

In brief

Potential donors who are undergoing bone marrow biopsy or bone marrow donation as part of clinical care will be asked by the principal investigator (PI) if they might be interested in donating marrow for this research project. If they are interested, the PI will meet with the prospective donor to review the information contained in the informed consent document and to answer any questions the potential subject may have. Bone marrow aspirates of approximately 5cc will be obtained from the posterior iliac crest of subjects using standard techniques.
