2006: Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HCT)
Infusion
All recipients on the Comprehensive Report Form track must complete the Form 2006. Recipients on the
Transplant Essential Data track must complete the Form 2006 for the following product types:
• NMDP donor products
• NMDP and non-NMDP cord blood units
Additionally, all transplant centers (TED-only and Comprehensive Report Form) participating in the
Related Sample Repository must complete the Form 2006 for all non-NMDP donor products when a
research sample is collected.
For more information see General Instructions, Center Type and Data Collection Forms.

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

The Form 2006 is designed to capture product- and infusion-specific information for all products given to a
recipient as part of a Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HCT). This includes cells given prior to the
HCT for reasons other than engraftment. In addition to use in research, this information is used for quality
assurance measures, both by the NMDP and the Cord Blood Banks.
If more than one type of HCT product is infused, each product type must be analyzed and reported on a
separate form. Two different products from the same donor (for example, PBSC and bone marrow), require
two 2006 forms; one for each product.
However, a series of collections from the same donor that uses the same collection method and
mobilization cycle, even if the collections are performed on different days, should be considered a single
product.
For more information see Appendix O, How to Distinguish Infusion Types and Appendix P, Definition of
Product.

Q1-15: Donor/Cord Blood Unit Identification
Question 1: Specify Donor:
Indicate the donor type for this product.
An autologous product has cells collected from the recipient for his/her own use.

Page 241 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

If the product was autologous (marrow, PBSC, other product), select “autologous” and continue with
question 16.
If the product was an autologous cord blood unit, select “autologous cord blood unit” and continue with
question 5.
An unrelated donor (allogeneic, unrelated) is a donor who shares no known ancestry with the recipient.
Include adoptive parents/children or stepparents/children. Distinguish if the product in an NMDP product or
a non-NMDP product. Examples of non-NMDP donor registries include, but are not limited to: St. Louis Cord
Blood Bank, Anthony Nolan, and StemCyte International Cord Blood Center.
If the product was an NMDP unrelated cord blood unit, select “NMDP unrelated cord blood unit” and
continue with question 2.
If the product was from an NMDP unrelated donor (marrow, PBSC, other product), select “NMDP
unrelated donor” and continue with question 3.
If the product was from a non-NMDP unrelated donor and was facilitated through another registry,
select “non-NMDP unrelated donor” and continue with question 4.
If the product was a non-NMDP cord blood unit, select “non-NMDP cord blood unit” and continue with
question 5.
A related donor (allogeneic or syngeneic, related) is a blood-related relative. This includes monozygotic
(identical twins), non-monozygotic (dizygotic, fraternal, non-identical) twins, siblings, parents, aunts, uncles,
children, cousins, half-siblings, etc.
If the product was from a related donor (marrow, PBSC, other product), select “related donor” and continue
with question 10.
If the product was a related cord blood unit, select “related cord blood unit” and continue with question 5.

Question 2: NMDP Cord Blood Unit ID:
Report the NMDP Cord Blood Unit ID. This information is included on the product label, the product insert
accompanying the product, and within the NMDP search/product documentation. The ID is always numeric
and begins with “9” (e.g., 9000-0000-0). If the product ID does not begin with a “9,” the product may not be
an NMDP cord blood unit and the source of the product should be double-checked. Continue with question
15.

Page 242 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

Question 3: NMDP Donor ID:
Report the NMDP Donor ID (e.g., 0000-0000-0). This ID is unique for each donor and is assigned by the
NMDP. This information is included on the product label, the product insert accompanying the product, and
within the NMDP search/product documentation. Continue with question 15.

Question 4: Non-NMDP unrelated donor ID: (not applicable for related donor)
Report the non-NMDP unrelated donor ID. Do not complete this field if the recipient has an NMDP donor, a
related donor, or a cord blood donor. This ID is often located on the product label, the product insert
accompanying the product, and the registry-specific search/product documentation. Continue with question
8.

Question 5: Non-NMDP cord blood unit ID: (include related and autologous CBUs)
Report the non-NMDP cord blood unit ID. Examples of non-NMDP donor registries include, but are not
limited to: St. Louis Cord Blood Bank and StemCyte International Cord Blood Center. This ID is often
located on the product label, the paperwork accompanying the product, and registry specific search/product
documentation. Enter the non-NMDP cord blood ID. Note that some cord blood banks can ship their units
either through the NMDP or directly to the transplant center. Carefully review the accompanying
documentation to determine which is appropriate for your unit. You may wish to consult with your center’s
Transplant Coordinator, as he or she will have insight as to how the product was acquired.

Question 6: Is the CBU ID also the ISBT DIN number?
Report “yes” if the non-NMDP CBU ID is the same as the International Society of Blood Transfusion (ISBT)
Donation Identification Number (DIN) and continue with question 8. If the product has an ISBT label on it,
the ISBT DIN number is in the upper left-hand corner and consists of a letter followed by 12 numbers, two
numbers on the end, and a letter in a box. Example below:

Please find additional information regarding the ISBT DIN numbers and traceability at http://www.iccbba.org/
docs/public/introduction_traceability.pdf. For example, you may see a barcode with an alphanumeric string
below it.
If the CBU ID is not the same as the ISBT DIN number, select “no” and continue with question 7.

Page 243 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

Question 7: Specify the ISBT DIN number:
If you answered “yes” to question 6, report the ISBT DIN number using the letter, 12 digits, 2 numbers on
end, and the letter in the box.
If you answered “no” to question 6 (the product does not have an ISBT DIN number), leave this field blank,
override the error, and continue with question 8.

Question 8: Registry or UCB Bank ID:
Specify the registry used to obtain the adult donor or umbilical cord blood unit. The Bone Marrow Donors
Worldwide (BMDW) codes have been adopted to avoid submitting the entire name and address of the donor
registry.
The registry code for NMDP donors is USA1 and for NMDP cord units is U1CB.
Some common banks that do not list with BMDW have been added to the FormsNet list for version 4,
including St Louis Cord Blood Bank (SLCBB) and Viacord (VIAC).
If the donor was found through DKMS, report the registry that facilitated the HCT. Some registries may be
listed more than once with BMDW (once for marrow/PBSC products and differently for cord blood products).
Ensure that the appropriate code for the product was selected, because distribution of data is dependent on
the code.
If the registry code cannot be determined using the BMDW website, select “other registry” and continue to
question 9.

Question 9: Specify Other Registry or UCB Bank:
If the BMDW website does not list a match code for the adult donor registry or cord blood bank, provide the
registry’s official name in the “Specify other registry” field.
Please ensure that the registry you are entering under “other” is not already listed in the pull-down list for
question 8. Entries such as NMDP adult donors, NMDP cords, and New York Cord Bank each have their
own entries above.

Questions 10 & 11: Date of Birth (donor/infant):
Report if the donor’s/infant’s date of birth is “known” or “unknown” for question 10. If the donor’s/infant’s
date of birth is known, report the date of birth (YYYY-MM-DD) in question 11. If the donor’s/infant’s date of
birth is unknown, continue with question 12.

Page 244 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

Questions 12 & 13: Age (donor/infant):
Report if the donor’s/infant’s age is “known” or “unknown” for question 12. If the donor’s/infant’s age is
known, report the donor’s/infant’s age at the time of product collection in question 13. Report the age in
months if the recipient is less than 1 year old, otherwise report the age in years. If the donor’s/infant’s age at
collection is unknown, continue with question 14.

Question 14: Sex (donor/infant):
Indicate the donor’s biological sex as “male” or “female.” For cord blood units, report the infant’s sex.

Question 15: Was the product derived from an NMDP adult donor, NMDP cord blood unit, or
non-NMDP cord blood unit?
If the source of the product was an NMDP adult donor, NMDP cord blood unit, or non-NMDP cord blood
unit, select “yes” and continue with question 43. If the product does not meet those criteria, select “no” and
continue with question 16 in the Pre-Collection Therapy section.

Q16-27: Pre-Collection Therapy
Question 16: Did the donor receive therapy, prior to any stem cell harvest, to enhance the
product collection for this HCT?
Stem cells do not typically circulate in the blood stream. Therefore, in order to increase the quantity of cells
for collection, an agent is frequently given to the allogeneic donor or autologous donor-recipient. The
purpose of the agent is to move the stem cells from the bone marrow into the peripheral blood where the
cells can be collected by apheresis. This practice is often referred to as mobilization or priming.
Occasionally, a donor may be primed using a growth factor prior to collection of bone marrow.
If the donor (including autologous donor-recipients) received therapy (such as growth factors, mobilizing
agents, chemotherapy, etc.), select “yes” and continue with question 17.
If the donor did not receive therapy to enhance the stem cell product, select “no” and continue with question
28.

Question 17: Growth and mobilizing factor(s)
Examples of growth and mobilizing factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
Epidermal growth factor – EGF
Erythropoietin – EPO

Page 245 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

Fibroblast growth factor – FGF
Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor – G -CSF
Granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor – GM-CSF
Growth differentiation factor-9 – GDF9
Hepatocyte growth factor – HGF
Insulin-like growth factor – IGF
Platelet-derived growth factor – PDGF
Thrombopoietin – TPO
Transforming growth factor alpha – TGF-α
Transforming growth factor beta – TGF-β
If the donor or autologous donor-recipient received growth factors prior to the stem cell harvest to enhance
the stem cell product select “yes” and continue with question 18.
If the donor or autologous donor-recipient did not receive growth factor(s), select “no” and continue with
question 24.

Questions 18-23: Specify therapy(s)
Report if any of the following products were given. Select “yes” or “no” for each question.
G-CSF (granulocyte-colony stimulating factor, filgrastim, Neupogen ®)
Pegylated G-CSF (pegfilgrastim, Neulasta ®)
GM-CSF (granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor, sargramostim, Leukine ®)
Plerixafor (Mozobil ®*)*
If the growth or mobilizing factor that was given is not included in the above list, select “yes” for question 22
and specify the generic name for the growth or mobilizing factor in question 23.

Question 24: Systemic therapy (chemotherapy) (autologous only)
Indicate if the autologous donor-recipient received systemic therapy prior to the stem cell harvest to
enhance the stem cell product. Although the intended purpose of this therapy may not be to treat the
recipient’s disease, occasionally there is a disease response. Therefore, also record this therapy on the
Pre-HCT Disease Specific Form (Forms 20xx) as a line of therapy, if applicable.
Systemic therapies used to enhance the stem cell product may include cyclophosphamide or ICE
chemotherapy (Ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide).

Page 246 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

If the autologous donor-recipient received systemic therapy prior to the stem cell harvest, select “yes” and
continue with question 25. If systemic therapy was not received, select “no” and continue with question 26.

Question 25: Anti-CD20 (rituximab, Rituxan) (autologous only)
Indicate if Anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies (rituximab) were used during the collection of the autologous
product. Although the intended purpose of this therapy may not be to treat the recipient’s disease,
occasionally there is a disease response. Therefore, also record this therapy on the Pre-HCT Disease
Specific Form (Forms 20xx) as a line of therapy, if applicable.
An example of systemic therapies using anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies to enhance stem cell products is
R-ICE (rituximab, ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide).

Questions 26-27: Other therapy
If the donor or autologous donor-recipient received any other treatment prior to the stem cell harvest to
enhance the stem cell product, select “yes” and specify the treatment administered in question 27.
If the donor or autologous donor-recipient did not receive any other treatment, select “no” and continue with
question 28.

Q28-42: Product Collection

*

Multiple collections versus multiple products:
This form collects information for a single product. PBSC collected from a single
mobilization event (a mobilization event is the planned administration of growth
factors or systemic therapy designed to enhance stem cell collection), even when
collected over several days, is considered one product.
Multiple products are collected when, for example, the donor requires another
mobilization to collect a product at a later date. The collection from the second
mobilization event is considered a different product and should be reported on an
additional 2006 form.
Also, if the mobilization method changes (e.g., plerixafor is required starting on Day
3 of collection) this is considered a different product and an additional 2006 form
must be completed for the product collected with the new mobilization method.

Question 28: Date of first collection for this mobilization:
Report the date the stem cell collection was performed. If a collection event occurred over multiple days,
enter the date the collection started (i.e., Day 1).

Page 247 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

Example 1: An autologous recipient was mobilized with G-CSF and underwent a two-day PBSC
collection. Since the collection and mobilization methods remained the same over the duration of the
collection, this collection is considered one product. Report the collection start date as the date of
product collection.
Example 2: An autologous recipient was mobilized with G-CSF and underwent a two-day PBSC
collection. Then the recipient was given plerixafor to enhance the mobilization. Due to the change in
mobilization method, this is considered two separate products, and two Form 2006s should be
submitted. The date of product collection should be the first day of collection of mobilization method for
which the form is being completed.

Question 29: Was more than one collection required for this HCT?
If more than one day of collection was required for this mobilization event, select “yes” and continue with
question 30.
Do not report days of collection for a different product, as each product is reported on a separate 2006 form.
If more than one day of collection was not required, select “no.”

Question 30: Specify the number of subsequent days of collection in this episode:
Report the number of collection days for this product excluding the first day of collection. For example, if a
collection occurred over three days, “2” should be reported for this question. For an HCT that includes
multiple products, only report the total number of collection days (excluding the first day) for the product
being reported on this form.
Complete a separate Form 2006 for each subsequent mobilization cycle. A separate Form 2006 does not
need to be filled out for each collection day from the same mobilization cycle.

Question 31: Were anticoagulants added to the product during collection?
If anticoagulants were used during collection, select “yes” and continue with question 32. Anticoagulants
are typically documented on the product bag label. Anticoagulants are often added to PBSC products.
If anticoagulants were not used during collection, select “no” and continue with question 37.

Questions 32-36: Specify anticoagulant(s):
More than one anticoagulant may be added to a product. Select all the anticoagulants added to the reported
product. Do not leave any responses blank.

Page 248 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

If an anticoagulant added to the product is not listed on the form, check “yes” for question 35, and specify
the anticoagulant’s name in question 36.

Question 37: Were anticoagulants added to the product before freezing?
Report any anticoagulants that were added to the product after collection but prior to cryopreservation.
This does not include anticoagulants that were added during collection and already reported on questions
31-36. Anticoagulants are typically documented on the product bag label. Anticoagulants are often added to
PBSC products.
If anticoagulants were added after collection and prior to freezing, select “yes” and continue with
question 38.
If anticoagulants were not added after collection and prior to freezing, select “no” and continue with question
43.

Questions 38-42: Specify anticoagulant(s)
More than one anticoagulant may be added to a product. Select all the anticoagulants added to the reported
product. Do not leave any responses blank.
If an anticoagulant added to the product is not listed on the form, check “yes” for question 41 and specify the
anticoagulant’s name in question 42.

Q43-56: Product Transport and Receipt
Question 43: Was this product collected off-site and shipped to your facility?
If the product was shipped to the transplant center from an off-site collection center, select “yes.” In general,
the “yes” option will be used for unrelated donors.
However, there may be circumstances where the donor resides in the same geographic location as the
recipient and the collection occurred at the same facility as the transplant; in this case, the “no” option
should be used.
If the product was not shipped to the transplant center from an outside facility, or if the product was
collected on site then shipped off site for laboratory processing, select “no” and continue with question 57.
The “no” option usually applies to autologous collections and related donors.

Question 44: Date of receipt of product at your facility:

Page 249 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

The intent of this question is to determine the date that the transplant center assumed responsibility for the
product from the collection center. Enter the date your institution became responsible for the product.
If multiple bags of the same product arrived on different days, report the date the first bag arrived at your
facility.
If a contract laboratory processes the product prior to arrival at the transplant facility, report the date the
product arrived at the contract laboratory.

Question 45: Time of receipt of product (24-hour clock):
Enter the exact time your institution or off-site laboratory received and became responsible for the product.
Report the time using a 24-hour clock and indicate if daylight savings time or standard time was in effect. If
the location of your institution or off-site laboratory does not observe daylight savings time, report the time
as standard time. For more information about daylight savings time schedules, go to
http://www.timeanddate.com/time/dst/.

Questions 46-47: Specify the shipping environment of the product(s):
Indicate the shipping environment of the product. If the recipient’s product was shipped in a way other than
described on the list, select “other shipping environment” and specify the shipping environment in question
47. It is not necessary to provide the specific temperature of the product during shipment.
If the product is a cord blood unit, continue with question 48. For all other products, continue with question
57.

Question 48: Was there any indication that the environment within the shipper was outside
the expected temperature range for this product at any time during shipment? (Cord blood
units only)
Indicate if there was any indication that the environment within the shipper was outside the expected
temperature range for this product at any time during shipment. The temperature of the shipper is generally
constant and tracked using a data-logger. Mishandling of the product shipper or spikes in temperature could
impact the integrity of the product.
If there was any indication that the environment within the shipper was outside the expected temperature
range upon arrival at your center, a product complaint form (Form 3010) must be completed.

Question 49: Were the secondary containers (e.g., insulated shipping containers and unit
cassette) intact when they arrived at your center? (Cord blood units only)

Page 250 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

Indicate if the secondary containers were intact upon receipt of the cord blood unit by your center.
If the secondary containers were not intact upon arrival, a product complaint form (Form 3010) must be
completed.

Question 50: Was the cord blood unit stored at your center prior to thawing? (Cord blood
units only)
If the cord blood unit was stored at your center prior to thawing, select “yes” and continue with question 51.
If the cord blood unit was not stored at your center prior to thawing, select “no” and continue with question
54.

Question 51: Specify the storage method used for the cord blood unit:
Indicate the storage method used for the cord blood unit. The storage method is generally standard and
should be documented within the laboratory at your center. Note: liquid nitrogen is also known as liquid
phase.

Question 52: Temperature during storage:
Indicate the storage temperature used for the cord blood unit. The storage temperature is generally
standard and should be documented within the laboratory at your center.

Question 53: Date storage started:
Report the date the cord blood unit was first stored at your center prior to thawing.

*

The values reported for questions 54 and 55 are from documentation supplied by
the cord blood bank. Report the absolute number of cells, not per mL or per kg.

Question 54: Total Nucleated cells: (Cord blood units only)
Report the total nucleated cells for the cord blood product. This information is available within the
documentation received with the product shipment and from the search documentation performed to select
the product. These values are from the Cord Blood Bank and should not represent post-thaw values
assessed at your center’s lab.

Questions 55-56: CD34+ cells: (Cord blood units only)

Page 251 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

Indicate if the cord blood bank quantified CD34+ cells in the product. If the CD34+ cells were quantified,
select “done” and report the total CD34+ cells for the cord blood product in question 56. This information is
available within the documentation received with the product shipment and from the search documentation
performed to select the product. These values are from the Cord Blood Bank and should not represent postthaw values assessed at your center’s lab.
If the CD34+ cells were not quantified by the cord blood bank, report “not done” and continue with question
57.

Q57-108: Product Processing/Manipulation
Question 57: Was a fresh product received (e.g., not frozen)? (NMDP products only)
The intent of this question is to determine if the product shipped to the transplant center was ever
cryopreserved. Indicate “yes” if the product was received fresh (and never cryopreserved) and continue with
question 58. If the product was frozen, select “no” and continue with question 59. If the product was a cord
blood unit, select “not applicable (cord blood unit)” and continue with question 59.

Question 58: Was the entire fresh product cryopreserved at your facility prior to infusion?
(NMDP products only)
Indicate if the fresh NMDP product that arrived at your center was cryopreserved prior to infusion. If the
entire fresh product was cryopreserved prior to infusion, select “yes” and continue with question 59.
Select “no” if the product was not cryopreserved prior to infusion. Also select “no” in situations where the
product is split and the fresh product will be infused without ever having been cryopreserved, even if the
remaining portions are cryopreserved for future use.

Question 59: Was the product thawed from a cryopreserved state prior to infusion?
If any portion of the product was thawed prior to this infusion, select “yes” and continue with question 60.
If the product was never cryopreserved, select “no” and continue with question 71.

Question 60: Was the entire product thawed?
A product may have been collected as a single product bag and then cryopreserved and stored in
compartments. For example, the product could be stored in a 500mL bag with five 100mL cryopreserved
compartments, or it could be stored in multiple separate product bags that have been cryopreserved.

Page 252 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

If the entire product (all compartments or all product bags) was thawed, select “yes” and continue with
question 64.
If the entire product was not thawed, select “no” and continue with question 61.
If this infusion is using “leftover” cells from a previous infusion, the “leftover” portion is now considered the
entire product. Therefore, if all of the “leftover” cells were thawed, select “yes.” If a portion of the “leftover”
cells were not used and remain frozen, select “no.”

Question 61: Was only a compartment of the bag thawed? (cord blood units only)
Large product bags (units, fraction) are often comprised of several compartments (chambers). The
compartments can be removed from the larger bag and thawed individually.
Indicate if compartment(s) from within the larger product bag was(were) thawed.

Question 62: Were there multiple product bags?
Indicate if the product consisted of multiple product bags. If “yes,” go to question 63. If “no,” go to question
64.

Question 63: Specify number of bags thawed:
Of the total number of product bags, indicate the number of bags thawed. This number should be less than
the total number of bags cryopreserved.

Question 64: Date thawing process initiated:
Report the date the thawing process began.

Question 65: Time at initiation of thaw (24-hour clock):
Report the time the product thaw began. Report the time using a 24-hour clock and indicate if daylight
savings time or standard time was in effect. If the location of your institution or off-site laboratory does not
observe daylight savings time, report the time as standard time. For more information about daylight savings
time schedules, go to http://www.timeanddate.com/time/dst/.
If multiple bags of the same product are thawed, report the time the first bag begins thawing. The exact time
should be documented within the patient record or the stem cell laboratory processing record.

Report the time the thawed product was ready for infusion or expansion. This time is frequently when the
product thaw is completed. Show the time using a 24-hour clock and indicate if daylight savings time or
standard time was in effect. If the location of your institution or off-site laboratory does not observe daylight
savings time, report the time as standard time. For more information about daylight savings time schedules,
go to http://www.timeanddate.com/time/dst/.
If multiple bags of the same product are thawed, report the time the last bag was finished thawing, even if
the date is not the same as the date reported in question 64. The exact time should be documented within
the patient record or the stem cell laboratory processing record.

Question 67: Was the primary container (e.g., cord blood unit bag) intact upon thawing?
Indicate if the primary container was intact upon thawing. The primary container refers to the product bag,
not the shipping container.
If the cord blood unit primary container was not intact upon thawing, a product complaint form (Form 3010)
must be completed.

Questions 68-69: What method was used to thaw the product?
Report the thawing method used to thaw the product. If a method other than “waterbath” or “electric warmer”
was used, select “other method” and specify the method in question 69.

Question 70: Did any adverse events, incidents, or product complaints occur while
preparing or thawing the product?
Indicate if any incidents occurred regarding the product during the thawing process. If any product
complaints were found while preparing or thawing the product, a product complaint form (Form 3010) must
be completed. Possible complaints include, but are not limited to: broken bags, a clot in the product, or
missing documentation used to identify the product.

Question 71: Was the product manipulated prior to infusion?
If any part of the product was manipulated in any way prior to infusion at the transplant center, select “yes.”
Do not report cryopreservation (including plasma removal as part of cryopreservation) as a method
of manipulation; cryopreservation of the product(s) is reported in questions 57-58, if applicable.
If the product was shipped to your facility, do not report manipulation of the product performed at the
collection center.

If the product was not manipulated, select “no.” For an autologous product, continue with question 109. For
an allogeneic product, continue with question 158.

Question 72: Specify portion manipulated:
Indicate the portion of the product that was manipulated. If the entire product was manipulated, select
“entire product” and continue with question 73. If a portion of the product was removed and manipulated,
select “portion of product” and continue with question 73.
If multiple portions of the product were manipulated in different ways, select “portion of product” to indicate
that the manipulation was not performed on the entire product. All of the manipulations for each portion of
the product should be reported in this section.

Questions 73-95: Specify all methods used to manipulate the product:
Indicate the method(s) of stem cell manipulation. Answer each question as “yes” or “no” and do not leave
any responses blank.

*

Steps in Manipulation
If the manipulation consists of several steps, individual steps do not need to be
reported as separate manipulations. For example, washing that is part of CD34+
selection does not need to be reported as a separate manipulation. Similarly, T-cell
depletion that is part of expansion does not need to be reported. If dilution is
performed as part of washing, dilution does not need to be reported.
In the cases above, if T-cell depletion and/or washing are done as stand-alone
manipulations, they should be reported.

Washed: Washing is performed to remove cryoprotectant (such as DMSO) from the product.
Diluted: Dilution is performed to reduce the cell concentration. 1
Buffy coat enriched: Buffy coat enrichment is performed to reduce/remove mature erythrocytes and
plasma.1
B cell reduced: B cell reduction is performed to reduce/remove the quantity of B cells in the product. 1
CD8 reduced: CD8 reduction is performed to reduce/remove the population of CD8 cells in the
product.1 The removal of CD8 cells may mitigate the risk of GVHD.

Page 255 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

Plasma reduced (removal): Plasma reduction is performed to remove plasma via sedimentation or
centrifugation.1
Plasma reduction may be done in order to minimize the risks associated with ABO mismatched
products or to prevent volume overload. Previous versions of the Form 2006 made a distinction
between plasma removal and volume reduction; for the purpose of this form, both volume reduction and
plasma removal should be reported here.
Plasma reduction/removal that is part of the cryopreservation process should not be reported as
manipulation.
RBC reduced: RBC reduction is performed to reduce/remove mature erythrocytes from the product. 1
Cultured (ex-vivo expansion): Ex-vivo expansion is a method of culturing cells to “activate, expand, or
promote development of a specified cell population in the presence of specific additive(s).” (ISBT,
2012)1 If the product is expanded,also report the expansion protocol under “other” in addition to
checking “cultured.”
Genetic manipulation (gene transfer/transduction): Gene manipulation refers to any method used to
modify the genes in the product cells. Gene transduction refers to the transfer of genes from one cell to
another. Using genetic manipulation is still in the “research” stage.
PUVA treated: Treatment with psoralen and ultraviolet light (PUVA).1
CD34 enriched (CD34+ selection): CD34+ selection is a manipulation method also known as “positive
selection.” This method identifies and selects stem cells that have a CD34+ marker on the cell surface.
CD133 enriched: CD133 enrichment identifies and selects stem cells that have a CD133 marker on the
cell surface.
Monocyte enriched: Monocyte enrichment identifies and selects monocytes.
Mononuclear cells enriched: Mononuclear cell enrichment identifies and selects mononuclear cells.
T-cell depletion: T-cell depletion removes some or all of the T cells in an effort to minimize GVHD.
Methods of T-cell depletion include antibody affinity column, antibody-coated plates, antibody-coated
plates and soybean lectin, antibody + toxin, immunomagnetic beads, CD34 affinity column plus sheep
red blood cell resetting.

Question 96: Were antibodies used during product manipulation?
If antibodies were used during product manipulation, select “yes” and continue with question 97. However, it
is not necessary to report antibody use as part of CD34+ enrichment using the CliniMacs, Isolex, or Miltenyi
devices. If antibodies were not used, select “no” and continue with question 109.

Questions 97-108: Specify antibodies:
Specify the antibodies used for product manipulation. Do not leave any responses blank. If antibodies were
used during product manipulation, but are not listed above, select “yes” for question 107 and specify in
question 108.

Q109-157: Autologous Products Only
The following section refers to autologous products only, including autologous cord blood. If this is not an
autologous HCT, continue with the Product Analysis section at question 158.

Question 109: Were tumor cells detected in the recipient or autologous product prior to
HCT?
Indicate if tumor cells (e.g., plasma cells in a myeloma patient, lymphoma cells, or breast cancer cells) were
detected in the circulating blood stream or bone marrow within the period between the last systemic therapy
and collection, or if tumor cells were present in the product. If tumor cells were detected, select “yes” and
continue with question 110. If no tumor cells were found in the circulating blood cells, bone marrow
(between last systemic therapy and collection), or product (before purging), select “no” and continue with
question 136.
Do not report the presence of tumor markers (e.g., SPEP, IFE, and free light chains), as they do not
necessarily indicate the presence of a tumor cell.
Do not report the presence of a tumor (i.e., solid tumor) in the recipient prior to HCT on this form; the
disease status of the recipient is recorded on the recipient forms.

Questions 110-135: Specify tumor cell detection method used and site(s) of tumor cells:
For each method of tumor cell detection, indicate “yes” if tumor cells were detected. If yes, continue with the
subsequent questions regarding site(s) of tumor cells. If no tumor cells were located, continue with the next
detection method. Do not leave any responses blank.
Routine histopathology includes a review of histological and morphological findings in the circulating
blood, bone marrow, or autologous product.
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a molecular method used to detect known molecular
abnormalities using markers for specific diseases.
Other molecular techniques include gene expression profiling techniques such as microarray. Specify
the method used in question 119.
Immunohistochemistry is a technique used to evaluate surface markers on cellular material. Flow
cytometry is an example of immunohistochemistry.
Cell culture technique is a technique used to detect malignant cell proliferation in cell culture medium.
Other techniques should be reported if the method used to detect tumor cells is not one listed above.
Specify the technique in question 132.
If tumor cells were detected using one of the methods listed above, specify the site(s) of detection. Select
“yes” if the site was tested and tumor cells were detected. Select “no” if the site was tested and tumor cells
were not detected. Select “not done” if the site was not tested for tumor cells.
Circulating blood cells are evaluated after peripheral blood collection.
Bone marrow may be tested to detect tumor cells in the interval between the most recent systemic
treatment and the stem cell collection.
Collected cells are in the product that will be used for transplant. Detection of disease in the collected
cells should be reported prior to removing malignant cells (purging).

Question 136: Was the product treated to remove malignant cells (purged)?
This type of negative selection manipulation removes malignant cells from the collected product.
If the product was purged, select “yes” and continue with question 137. If the product did not have malignant
cells to remove and/or was not purged, select “no” and continue with question 158.

Questions 137-150: Specify method(s) used:
Specify all methods used to purge the product. Answer each question as “yes” or “no,” being sure not to
leave any question blank.123
Monoclonal antibody: a negative selection method in which antibodies destroy malignant T- or B-cells.
4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide (4HC) and Mafosfamide: a negative selection method in which
derivatives of cyclophosphamide destroy malignant cells.
Elutriation: a method in which cells are separated based on size, potentially allowing malignant cells to
be separated from non-malignant cells.
Immunomagnetic Column: a selection method in which monoclonal antibodies and magnetic beads
attach to targeted cells, allowing for the separation of malignant and non-malignant cells using a
magnet.
Toxin: a negative selection method in which a toxin or toxin-derivative may be combined with a
monoclonal antibody to destroy malignant cells.
CD34 selection (other than preparation of mononuclear fraction): a positive selection method in
which only CD34 cells for transplant are identified and collected. Select this option if this method was
used to separate malignant cells from cells for transplant. Do not select this option if the product was
CD34 selected for other reasons.

Q158-195: Product Analysis (All Products)

*

Product Analysis
The “at infusion” timepoint is a critical timepoint and should reflect the values of
the infused product (i.e., what was given to the patient). As long as the values
specific to the volume of product infused are known, the analysis at this timepoint is
the only analysis required by the CIBMTR. All other timepoints are not required.
However, for NMDP products, reporting analysis for the “product arrival” timepoint
is recommended for quality assurance purposes. Additionally, for cord blood
products, the “post-thaw” timepoint is the most indicative of the quality of the
product. If there are sufficient cells to obtain a post-thaw/pre-wash sample, it is
recommended to report this analysis as well.
Report the product analysis results for each timepoint that testing was performed.
If the product is contained in multiple bags and infused together, add the cell
counts from each bag to get the total cell count. To calculate the percent viability,
average the viability of all bags/products.

Question 158: Specify the timepoint in the product preparation phase that the product was
analyzed:
Indicate the timepoint at which product analysis was reported. A maximum of four timepoints may be
reported. Each timepoint can only be reported once.
Product arrival: Assessment of fresh product at the transplant facility. This may include arrival of fresh
product from an apheresis or collection center, or product collected from an autologous or related donor
at your site.
Pre-cryopreservation: Assessment of fresh product prior to cryopreservation at your center.
Post-thaw: Assessment after the product has been thawed, but prior to any post-thaw manipulation,
including washing the cells to remove cryoprotectant.
At infusion: Must be reported if values specific to the volume of product infused are known. If the
product was manipulated after thawing, report the post-manipulation analysis under the “at infusion”
timepoint.

Page 260 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

If the product is analyzed upon arrival at the receiving transplant center, the product is not manipulated or
cryopreserved prior to infusion, and no additional analyses are performed, then the timepoint of analysis
should be reported as “at infusion” instead of “product arrival.”
The “at infusion” timepoint should only report the values for the actual product volume infused. Therefore, if
analysis was performed on the entire product but only a portion of the product was infused, the “at infusion”
values reported should represent only the portion of product infused. If product analysis values of the entire
product are known and the values specific to only the volume of product infused cannot be determined, then
the “at infusion” may be reported using the known volume (and additional details including viability, culture
results, CFU assessment results, etc.), but the cell counts may be reported as “not done.” An additional
timepoint such as “pre-cryopreservation” or “post-thaw” should be reported if the product was analyzed at
your center.
Example 1 – entire product infused: The entire product is analyzed at arrival and does not undergo
any manipulation, cryopreservation, or additional analyses. The entire product volume is infused. The
values from the product analysis should be reported for the “at infusion” timepoint.
Example 2 – portion of product infused: The entire product is analyzed prior to infusion and the
values from this analysis are reflective of the entire product. Only a portion of this product is infused.
The counts specific to the volume of product analyzed are proportional to the volume infused and can
be calculated. The results of the analysis performed on the entire product should be reported for the
appropriate timepoint (e.g., product arrival, pre-cryopreservation, or post-thaw).
If the product arrives at your center (or is collected at your center), is tested, and then cryopreserved, report
these values as “at arrival.” If the product arrives, and is tested several times, and then cryopreserved,
report the first testing results as “at arrival” and the last test results prior to cryopreservation as “precryopreservation.”
To assist centers in reporting product analysis timepoints, the CIBMTR has developed guidelines specific to
the product type being reported. The following instructions are meant to guide center reporting practices
based on common product testing scenarios. They do not cover all possible scenarios and centers are
encouraged to contact their CRC for further clarification as necessary.
Cord Blood Units: Centers are reminded to only report product testing performed by their laboratory.
Product testing performed by the cord blood bank is captured in the Product Transport and Receipt
section of this form and should not be reported in the Product Analysis section. For all washed cord blood
units, testing performed prior to washing should be reported under “post-thaw” while testing performed after
washing should be reported under “at infusion.” If the transplant center only tests for viability, report the
timepoint, date of analysis, product volume, and viability.

Page 261 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

Fresh Marrow or PBSC: Product processing and manipulation will determine which timepoints the center is
able to report. For a fresh product that is not manipulated, report all testing under the “at infusion” timepoint.
If only a portion of the product is infused, adjust the “at infusion” counts as indicated above.
Cryopreserved Marrow or PBSC, collected at an outside facility: Centers are reminded to only report
product testing performed by their laboratory. Testing will be reported under “post-thaw” and/or “at infusion”
timepoints. If a product is thawed, tested, and infused without being manipulated, report all testing under “at
infusion.” For washed products, testing performed prior to washing should be reported under “post-thaw”
while testing performed after washing should be reported under “at infusion.” If the transplant center only
tests for viability, report the timepoint, date of analysis, product volume, and viability.
Cryopreserved Marrow or PBSC, collected at the transplant center: If the transplant center does a
complete analysis post-thaw, report this testing under the “at infusion” timepoint. A common scenario is for
the transplant center to perform a complete analysis prior to cryopreservation, with only viability testing
performed post-thaw. In this case, the center should report an “at arrival” or “pre-cryopreservation” timepoint
in addition to the required “at infusion” timepoint. The “at arrival” or “pre-cryopreservation” timepoint will
capture all cell counts, viability, sterility, etc. performed prior to freezing the product. If repeat testing is not
performed post-thaw, the “at infusion” cell counts must be reported based on testing performed prior to
cryopreservation and adjusted for the volume actually infused. This information is typically documented on
the infusion report. The “at infusion” timepoint must also capture post-thaw viability testing if performed. The
date of the “at infusion” product analysis timepoint will be the date of infusion. This may be different than the
date testing for cell counts or cell viability was performed.

Question 159: Date of product analysis:
Report the date of the product analysis for each timepoint reported. In situations where the product is being
collected at your center and the “product arrival” timepoint is being used, report the first date of collection as
the date of product analysis if the collection spans multiple days.

Question 160: Total volume of product plus additives:
Enter the total volume of the product plus additives in the bag(s) for each timepoint. Report the volume in
either milliliters (mL) or grams (g).

Questions 161-176: Report the total number of cells (not cells per kilogram) not corrected
for viability.
For each of the cell types, report “done” if the cell type was quantified at the specified timepoint. Report the
absolute number of the cells, not cells per kg.

Total nucleated cells (TNC): the total nucleated cell count includes nucleated red and nucleated white
blood cells. See note below
Nucleated white blood cells: (also known as leukocytes) the nucleated cell count includes the
neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, lymphocytes, and monocytes. See note below
Mononuclear cells: the total mononuclear cell count includes lymphocytes and monocytes.
Nucleated red blood cells: (also known as normoblasts) the total count of red blood cells containing a
nucleus. See note below
CD34+ cells: the total count of cells with CD34+ markers on the surface.
CD3+ cells: the total count of cells with CD3+ markers on the surface.
CD3+CD4+ cells: the total count of cells with CD3+CD4+ markers on the surface. The lab report may
display this value as “CD4+.”
CD3+CD8+ cells: the total count of cells with CD3+CD8+ markers on the surface. The lab report may
display this value as “CD8+”

*

Since total nucleated cells consist of both nucleated red and white blood cells, it is
possible to calculate a missing value if the two other values are present on lab
reports. Centers do not need to calculate and report these lab values if they don’t
appear on the laboratory paperwork.

Occasionally, cell differential results may be “corrected” in order to remove cells such as nRBCs. The
CIBMTR would like to have uncorrected data submitted in these fields. Some labs report corrected cell
counts, others report uncorrected cells counts. Some even report both. If your lab report does not clearly
indicate whether the TNC is corrected or uncorrected, ask someone in the lab to help you determine which
is correct. This will most likely be the same every time, so you would not need to check for each patient. If
this information is not clearly indicated on the lab report, please ensure this is somewhere in your center
SOPs. If the only value available to you is the corrected TNC, you may calculate the uncorrected TNC with
the formula below. Please be sure to carefully check your math and the units reported to ensure that the
information on the form is correct. To determine the uncorrected TNC count, use the following formula
(Adapted from Essential Laboratory Mathematics by CW Johnson, DL Timmons, PE Hall (2003), pg 175.):

Page 263 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

If the corrected WBC is in cells/mL:
(corrected WBC per mL) x (volume of product) x ((nRBCs per 100 WBCs) + 100) / 100 = Total
Uncorrected TNC
If the corrected WBC is in cells/kg:
(corrected WBC per kg) x (recipient kg) x ((nRBCs per 100 WBCs) + 100) / 100 = Total Uncorrected
TNC
If the corrected WBC is an absolute cell count:
(total corrected WBC) x ((nRBCs per 100 WBCs) + 100) / 100 = Total Uncorrected TNC
For example, if the corrected WBC is 17.96×106/mL, the product volume is 390 mL, and the nRBCs per 100
WBCs is 12.8 (using the formula above when considering cells/mL):
(17.96 × 106) x (390 mL) x (12.8 + 100) / 100 = 79×10 8 Uncorrected TNC
If the cell type was not quantified at that specific timepoint, report “not done” and continue with the next cell
type.

Questions 177-178: Viability of cells:
If the viability of the cells was quantified, select “done” and report the percentage of viable cells in question
178. If your center’s laboratory assay only measures viable cells, report the number of viable cells in
questions 161-176 along with a viability number of 100% in question 178. If the assay measures all cells
and then checks viability, report the total number and report the percent of cells that are viable.

Questions 179-180: Method of testing cell viability:
Indicate the method of testing viability
7-AAD (7-aminoactinomycin D) and Propidium iodide are compounds that can stain dead cells but will
not cross the membrane of living cells. Cytometric techniques are used to calculate the percentage of
viable cells in a sample.
Trypan Blue is a technique where the dead cells become stained when in contact with the compound,
but living cells remain impermeable to the dye. Cells are counted under a microscope to determine the
percentage of viable cells in a sample.

If both methods of viability testing are performed, report 7-AAD results.

Page 264 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

If the cell viability was tested using a different method, select “other method” and specify the method in
question 180.

Question 181: Were the colony-forming units (CFU) assessed after thawing? (cord blood
units only)
CFUs have been shown to be a predictor of engraftment. Indicate whether CFUs were assessed after
thawing. If the CFUs were assessed, continue with question 182. If no CFU assessments were performed,
continue with question 187.

Question 182: Was there growth?
If CFUs were assessed after thawing, indicate whether growth was detected.

Questions 183-184: Total CFU-GM
Indicate if the total CFU-GM (granulocyte/macrophages) was quantified. If the CFU-GM was quantified,
report “done” and continue with question 184. Report the total CFU as documented on the laboratory report.
Do not report CFU per dish, per bag, or per kg.

Questions 185-186: Total BFU-E
Indicate if the total BFU-E (burst forming unit – erythroid) was assessed. BFU-E indicates the presence of
erythroid precursor cells. If the BFU – E was quantified, report “done” and continue with question 186.
Report the total BFU-E as documented in the laboratory report. Do not report BFU per dish, per bag, or per
kg.

Question 187: Were cultures performed before infusion to test the product(s) for bacterial or
fungal infection? (complete for all cell products)
If cultures were performed, select “yes” and continue with question 188.
If cultures were not performed, select “no” and continue with question 196.

Questions 188-195: Specify results and organism code(s)
If a single product was split into multiple bags and one or more bags are contaminated, then all bags
should be considered contaminated for the purposes of reporting data to the CIBMTR.
If multiple products are infused, and only one product is contaminated, then report the infection on the
Form 2006 for the product that was contaminated (i.e., the uninfected product will be reported on a separate
Form 2006).

Page 265 of 1004

CIBMTR.org

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

If cultures were performed on the product, indicate the results as “positive,” “negative,” or “unknown.”
If the results were positive, select the isolated organism(s) using the pull down options in FormsNet.

Q196-249: Product Infusion
Questions 196: Date of this product infusion:
Report the date this product was infused. If the product was infused over multiple days, report the first date
of infusion.
If this Form 2006 is completed for additional cells not intended to produce engraftment, (i.e., question 198
was reported as “no”) report the date the additional cells were infused. However, the Key Field “Date of this
HCT” must be reported as date of the actual HCT (clinical day 0) intended to produce engraftment.

Question 197: Was more than one product infused? (e.g., marrow and PBSC, PBSC and
cord blood, two different cords, etc.)
Indicate if more than one product was infused as part of this transplant event. Previous transplants should
not be reported here. Multiple bags from the same collection are not considered different products and
should not be reported here. If “yes,” continue with question 198. If “no,” continue with question 199.

Question 198: Was the product described on this insert intended to produce hematopoietic
engraftment?
If an infusion of additional cells (not intended to produce engraftment) was given prior to the actual HCT
(i.e., clinical day 0), the cells must be reported as a product on the Pre-TED Form 2400 and on a separate
Form 2006. If the additional cells were infused after the actual HCT, for any reason other than those
pertaining to the original HCT graft, they should be reported as a DCI on the appropriate follow-up form.
Reporting the additional cells (given pre-HCT and not intended to produce engraftment) on the Form 2006 is
the only mechanism the CIBMTR has in place to collect this data and ensure that the quality assurance data
is reported to cord blood banks, if applicable.
If the product reported on this form was intended to produce engraftment, select “yes.” If the product was
not intended for engraftment, select “no.”

Question 199: Date infusion started:
Report the date the product was infused. If multiple bags from the same product were infused, report the
start date of the first bag.

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

The total volume reported may be from pooled products. If products are pooled prior to infusion, report the
total volume of the pooled product that was infused. It is important to be aware that the timing of the pool
determines how the data is reported. See the examples below.
Example 1 – with manipulation: If a single product consisted of two collections and the products were
pooled prior to any manipulation (e.g., CD34+ selection), the pooled volume prior to manipulation would
be reported in question 160 only. The final infused product volume post manipulation would be reported
in question 204.
Example 2 – without manipulation: If a single product consisted of two collections and the products
were pooled and infused without any manipulation, the total volume would be reported in question 160
and question 204. These volumes should be the same unless there were additives post pooling.

Question 204: Was the entire volume of product infused?
Indicate “yes” if the entire volume of the product received was infused. Indicate “no” if only a portion of the
product received was infused.

Questions 205-206: Specify what happened to the reserved portion:
Report if the product was “discarded,” “cryopreserved for future use,” or “other fate.” If “other fate” is
selected, report the outcome of this product.

Questions 207-208: Specify the route of product infusion:
Report the route by which the product was infused. Intravenous refers to infusion into the veins – examples
include infusion via central line or via catheter. Intramedullary refers to infusion into the marrow cavity within
a bone, such as directly into the left or right iliac crest. Intraperitoneal refers to infusion within the peritoneal
cavity. If the route of infusion is not one of the above options, select “other route of infusion” and specify the
infusion route in question 208.

!

The following questions refer to all stem cell products except for autologous
marrow or autologous PBSC products. If this HCT used an autologous marrow or
autologous PBSC product, continue with the signature lines at the end of the form.

Question 209: Were there any adverse events or incidents associated with the stem cell
infusion?
Indicate whether any adverse events or incidents occurred as a result of the stem cell infusion. Report all
adverse events regardless of the grade or severity.

Forms Instruction Manual - 1

If an adverse event occurred, select “yes” and continue with question 210. If an adverse event did not occur,
select “no” and continue with question 250.
A serious adverse event is defined as an event which:
• led to death,
• was considered life-threatening,
• required prolongation of hospitalization,
• led to persistent or significant disability/incapacity,
• or led to a congenital anomaly/birth defect.

If any of the above happened, an Adverse Event Form (Form 3001) must also be completed. Important
medical events that may not result in death, be life-threatening, or require hospitalization may be
considered serious when, based upon appropriate medical judgment, they may jeopardize the
patient and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed in this
definition. Please review Adverse Event reporting at the CIBMTR website: http://www.cibmtr.org/
DataManagement/TrainingReference/Pages/AdverseEvents.aspx

Questions 210-249: Specify the following adverse event(s)
Indicate “yes” or “no” for each adverse event listed. Do not leave any responses blank. If the recipient
experienced an expected (in the physician’s opinion) adverse event that was not listed, specify the other
expected adverse event in question 245. If the recipient experienced an unexpected adverse event (i.e., not
one of the options listed above, or an “other expected AE”), specify the unexpected adverse event in
questions 247-248.
For each adverse event that occurred, indicate if the medical director believes the adverse event(s) to be
directly related to the infusion of the product.

Q250-285: Donor/Infant Demographic Information
The Donor Demographic Information section (questions 250-270) is to be completed for all non-NMDP
