Killer Cell Immunoglobulin-Like Receptor–Ligand Matching and Outcomes after Unrelated Cord Blood Transplantation in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
16 Apr 2016
Abstract excerpt
The effect of killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR)-ligand matching on outcomes after unrelated cord blood (CB) transplantation was studied in 461 patients with acute myeloid leukemia, categorizing KIR ligand for HLA-C groups C1 and C2 and Bw4. Donor-recipient HLA matching considered allele-level matching at HLA-A, -B, -C, and -DRB1. Separate analyses were conducted for 6-7/8 HLA-matched and 3-5/8...
