Abstract

Aim: To explore prospective donors' attitudes and perceptions toward donating hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) for novel treatments research and development (R&D). Methods: A survey was launched by Anthony Nolan (AN) to assess prospective donors' willingness to donate HSCs for novel therapies R&D, and their degree of comfort with the AN collaborating with and receiving payment from external organizations. Results: Most participants (87%) were willing to donate for novel treatment R&D and were comfortable with AN collaborating with external organizations and receiving payment (91% and 80%, respectively). Conclusion: Results reveal an overall positive response toward donating HSCs for R&D. These findings can support stakeholders and policymakers in outlining donation practices that uphold donors' safety and welfare.
