This study is a proof of concept that will assess the Predictor's kit performances. The test will be performed by several technicians, in immunological laboratories of several sites in France. In this study, "couples" of donor / recipient in the frame of a graft of CSH will be included.
The Hematopoietic Stem Cell (HSC) graft is the only curative treatment for lots of hematologic diseases, malignant or not, particularly leukemias. The acute Graft versus Host (aGvH) reaction is the most frequent complication, and could concern until 50% of recipients. It is mainly linked to immune characteristics of the donor which will act versus the graft recipient. There is a huge need of a technology that could predict the risk of aGvH, especially in order to select a donor in case of several possibilities, in order to reduce morbidity and mortality of graft. The Predictor' kit allows to predict acute and severe forms of Graft versus Host disease before the graft of peripheral hematological stem cells, by the assesment of iNKT cells expansion.

Assessment of the diagnosis test performance
The performance of the test will be assessed via the observation of the number of aGvH 6 months after the graft, reported to the the expansion of iNKT cells. Assessment of sensitivity and specificity of the diagnosis test
Time frame: 6 months
Assessment of the reproductibility of the test
The reproductibility of the test will be assessed by comparing the results obtained by 2 distinct operators : the immunology lab technician, and the referent operator at Imagine Institute research lab. The 2 operators will perform the test in parallel on the blood of the same donor, in similar conditions, and both by using a Predictor's kit.
Time frame: 6 months
