Comparative Study for Haplo, MSD and MUD Allo-Hcts for AML Patients with KMT2A Rearrangement: A Study from the Global Committee and the Acute Leukemia Working Party of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation

Background Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with KMT2A rearrangement (KMT2Ar, except for t(9;11)(p21.3;q23.3)/MLLT3::KMT2A) are classified as adverse risk in the 2022 European LeukemiaNet (ELN) classification. There is uncertainty on their outcome following allogeneic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). We compared, in an European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) global multi-center registry-based analysis, outcomes following an allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT) with either a matched sibling donor (MSD), matched unrelated donor (MUD) or haploidentical donor (HAPLO). Methods Data from 586 AML patients with KMT2Ar receiving a first allo-HCT in 183 EBMT centers from 2010-2022 were analyzed. All patients achieved first complete remission (CR1) before transplantation. Patients with t(9;11), without details on translocation, receiving mismatched UD (
