Brief Summary
The goal of this study is to collect blood samples from the umbilical cords of newborn babies, as soon as they are delivered, and to place these samples in the MD Anderson Cord Blood Bank. Your sample may be included in the National Cord Blood Inventory (NCBI) which is part of the CW Bill Young Cell Transplantation Program. The NCBI is a federally-supported program to assist in the collection of cord blood. Cord blood will be made available to patients through The National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP). These samples may then be offered to MD Anderson and other institutions for patients who need a bone marrow transplant and do not have a donor. The MD Anderson Cord Blood Bank will have the rights to release cord blood units to these institutions around the world according to established bone marrow transplant donor criteria, for a fee to cover costs. Cord blood samples that are collected and then do not meet the clinical requirements for patient use may also be used at MD Anderson or other institutions either for research or for quality purposes to improve cord blood banking procedures. If not suitable for patient use or for research purposes, the cord blood unit may be thrown away.

Eligibility Criteria
Neonates delievered by women age 18 years or older.
You may qualify if:
- Pregnant women age 18 or older. Cord blood will not be collected from a minor.
- Able to give verbal informed consent prior to collection of the cord blood.
- Able to give written informed consent prior to collection of the cord blood.
- Willing to provide a personal and family medical history (if available) of herself and the biologic father (if available), prior to or following collection of the cord blood.
- Willing to consent to testing of her blood and the cord blood for infectious diseases, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), human T cell lymphotrophic virus (HTLV), hepatitis B and C, cytomegalovirus (CMV), syphilis (RPR), Trypanosoma cruzi (Chagas) and West Nile Virus (WNV). Incomplete tests or positive infectious disease testing results may result in the cord blood unit being deemed unacceptable for clinical use.
