Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
proportion of patients undergoing an allo HCT transplant who have a KIR favorable donor.

Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Patients will undergo donor/recipient bone marrowExperimental Treatment8 Interventions
All patients will undergo haploidentical, allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. Conditioning will consist of fludarabine, melphalan, and thiotepa. Graft versus host disease prophylaxis will be with post-transplant cyclophosphamide in addition to standard tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil. Donors will undergo HLA and KIR geno- and allotyping to determine the best donor.
