transplant donor, HLA typed, 17-211
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to obtain lymphocyte collections from normal healthy volunteer donors in order to create Good Manufacturing Practice grade banks of virus-specific and tumor-reactive T-cells of defined HLA type and restricting HLA allele readily available for therapeutic use.
Interventions
Blood is removed together with an anticoagulant from a vein and separated into white cell rich and red cell rich fractions by centrifugation. The white cells are then saved to generate immune cells and the red cells are reinfused back through the donor's vein.
