Thus, for increasing the prior probability in each recipient with HLA-A*24-B*35-DRB1*04 from 20.3% to 21.3% as the maximum chance of finding at least one HLA-matched donor is required 89 more donors for 50 recipients or 4082 more donors for 100 recipients in a waiting list with that haplotype (figure 3).
