Brief summary

The goal of this study is to gain new knowledge about genetic risk factors thta may affect the development of mucositis, the chemotherapy-induced sores in the mouth and esophagus following HSCT. The study seeks to understand if different forms of genes result in an increased risk of sores in the mouth and esophagus.

Detailed description

Subjects will be provided with a saliva collection kit which can be used at home. Subjects will return the collection kit in a paid, pre-addressed mailer to the laboratory at Biomodels. The laboratory will isolate and store the DNA located in the cells of the saliva. A portion of this DNA will be used to analyze the different forms of genes. The remainder of the DNA will be destroyed when this study is completed. Biomodels will not be provided with patient identifiers. The investigators will also collect information from medical records, including information about diagnosis, treatment, stem cell transplantation and post-transplantation outcomes. This information will be de-identified.
