Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Currently, donors are selected largely on the basis of HLA gene typing alone. There is published data to show that donors with specific other genes called killer immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) may protect AML patients from having their leukemia return after a transplant. In this study, the best HLA matched donors will be tested for the KIR genes. If there is more than 1 donor available, a recommendation will be provided to study doctors as to which donors have potentially favorable KIR genes. The study doctors may or may not choose to use this donor for transplant or not based on his/her own judgment. Transplant care will not change otherwise as a result of this study.
This study is being done to demonstrate that AML patients who have donors with specific KIR and HLA genes will have a better outcome following transplant.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
For patients with 1 HLA-compatible donor for URD HCT
For patients with 1 URD: donor KIR genotyping will be performed on the donor. Because donor selection will not depend on KIR/HLA genotyping, completion of donor KIR genotyping is not required prior to transplant.
HLA genotyping
For patients with >1 HLA-compatible donor for URD HCT
For patients with 1 or more donor candidates, KIR genotyping may be performed for up to 5 donors. For patients with HLA-B alleles harboring the Bw4 epitope, KIR3DL1 allele typing will be performed at MSKCC.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
* Persons of all ages are eligible for this study.
* Patient must have diagnosis of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) at MSK or a collaborating treating institution. Patients with de novo AML or AML with preceding myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) are eligible.
* Patient must be a potential candidate for an unrelated transplantation procedure at the time of enrollment even though patient may not be eligible for transplantation in the future due to relapse or presence of co-morbidity(ies).
* An unrelated donor does not need to be identified at the time of enrollment. If an HLA-compatible unrelated donor is not identified for the patient, the patient will be removed from the study.
Exclusion Criteria
* Patients for whom post-transplant treatment is planned are not excluded from enrollment.
* Patients with prior allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation for AML. Note: Patients who have undergone prior hematopoietic cell transplantation for a diagnosis other than AML are still eligible for this study.
