Creating a liver transplant biobank for children
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Digestive system, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial sets up a long-term collection of medical information and samples from children who have had a liver transplant. It helps doctors study outcomes over time and improve care for future patients.
