KIR Genotyping for Unrelated Donor (URD) Selection Prior to Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT) for AML: Selecting a Favorable KIR Donor

Donors with favorable KIR B haplotype gene content have yielded reduced relapse risk and
improved leukemia free survival (LFS) in retrospective analyses of unrelated donor (URD)
hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) for acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Specifically,
donors with more KIR B gene content and those who are homozygous for the centromeric (Cen) B
haplotype genes (as opposed to the telomeric (Tel) genes confer the most protective effect.
This study proposes to prospectively test and validate the utility and effectiveness of
further informing URD identification and selection by KIR genotyping as a supplement to HLA
matching and the other variables known or suspected to indicate the best URD for a patient.

Hypotheses:

1. Favorable KIR donors will improve protection against relapse and improve leukemia free
survival (LFS) after URD HCT for AML.

2. Directed study procedures for rapid KIR genotyping and reporting to searching Transplant
Centers (TC) can inform donor search and selection without delay in donor availability
for HCT.

Transplant Centers will select the best HLA matched, and as appropriate, preferred KIR donor.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Patient with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) undergoing screening for potential URD HCT

- Potential URD undergoing screening to provide a HCT graft to a patient with acute
myeloid leukemia (AML) at a participating institution

- Provides written consent

Exclusion Criteria:

Transplant Centers will select the best HLA matched, and as appropriate, preferred KIR
donor. In situations where the preferred (best > better > neutral) KIR donor is not
selected in favor of a less favorable KIR genotype donor, the center will report one or
more defined reasons (donor age; gender; parity; CMV status; ABO status;
availability/logistics; other) for the choice (among equivalently HLA matched donors).
