Variable selection methods for predicting clinical outcomes following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation

Abstract Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is a potentially curative procedure for a large number of diseases. However, the greatest barriers to the success of allo-HCT are relapse and graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD). Many studies have examined the reconstitution of the immun...
