The Influence of Maternal KIR Haplotype on the Reproductive Outcomes after Single Embryo Transfer in IVF Cycles in Patients with Recurrent Pregnancy Loss and Implantation Failure-A Single Center Experience

Zusammenfassung:(1) Background: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and recurrent implantation failure (RIF) have in common a deficient maternal adaptation to the semi-allogeneic fetus, in which killer immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) family expressed by natural killer (NK) cells play an important role. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of maternal KIR haplotype on the reproductive outcomes after single embryo transfer in IVF cycles in patients with RPL and RIF. (2) Methods: Patients with RIF and RPL who presented at Origyn Fertility Center from Iasi, Romania, were prospectively enrolled between January 2020 and December 2022. Clinical and paraclinical data was examined. Descriptive statistics and a conditional logistic regression model were used to analyze our data. (3) Results: Patients with a KIR AA haplotype had significantly more chances of miscarriage if they underwent an IVF procedure (aOR: 4.15, 95% CI: 1.39-6.50, = 0.032) compared with those who spontaneously achieved a pregnancy. Moreover, it appeared that the same haplotype increased the chances of obtaining a pregnancy for patients who underwent an IVF procedure (aOR: 2.57, 95% CI: 0.85-6.75, = 0.023). (4) Conclusions: Determination of KIR haplotype could be beneficial for patients with RPL or RIF in order to offer an individualized management.
