CONCLUSIONS

Transplants from donors other than matched siblings were associated with excellent survival among infants with SCID identified before the onset of infection. All available graft sources are expected to lead to excellent survival among asymptomatic infants. (Funded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and others.)

differentiation will lead to rational and targeted therapeutic interventions to manipulate T-cell responses and improve clinical outcomes.
