[PMID: 37503703 DOI: 10.1002/jca.22079] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2022] [Revised: 06/29/2023] [Accepted: 07/13/2023] [Indexed: 07/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Adequate stem cell collection is essential for successful stem cell transplantation. Heparin enhances stem cell mobilization by competing with heparin sulfate proteoglycans. Heparin is also used as an anticoagulant before leukapheresis. Here, we evaluated the effects of heparin on stem cell mobilization in patients who underwent autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). METHODS We evaluated patients who underwent ASCT. Patients were divided into two groups: those who received heparin plus citrate (heparinized patients) and those who received citrate only (nonheparinized patients) for anticoagulation. Univariate and multivariate analyses were also performed. The collection efficiency 2 (CE2) for CD34+ cells was calculated and compared between heparinized and nonheparinized patients. RESULTS This study included 1017 patients. There were 478 (47%) heparinized and 539 (53%) nonheparinized patients. The number of collected CD34+ cells was significantly higher in heparinized patients (P < .00001). The multivariate analyses showed that using heparin was an independent positive factor for collected CD34+ cells (adj-R2 = 0.744; F = 369.331, P < .00001). CE2 was significantly higher in heparinized patients than in nonheparinized patients (66.8% vs 52.1%; P < .00001). The rate of collecting at least 2 × 106 /kg CD34+ cells was 3.3 times higher for heparinized patients in poor mobilizers (P < .00001). Heparinized patients had significantly higher total nucleated and mononuclear cell counts (P < .00001 and <.00001, respectively). CONCLUSION Heparin enhances stem cell collection and increases CE2. The use of heparin may reduce the need for other strategies to increase stem cell mobilization.

Impact of Clinical Parameters and Induction Regimens on Peripheral Blood Stem-Cell Mobilization and Collection in Multiple Myeloma Patients. Transfus Med Hemother 2023; 50:382-395. [PMID: 37899996 PMCID: PMC10601599 DOI: 10.1159/000530056] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2022] [Accepted: 03/06/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction High-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) followed by autologous blood stem-cell transplantation (ABSCT) remains the standard consolidation therapy for newly diagnosed eligible multiple myeloma (MM) patients. As a prerequisite, peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) must be mobilized and collected by leukapheresis (LP). Many factors can hamper PBSC mobilization/collection. Here, we provide a comprehensive multiparametric assessment of PBSC mobilization/collection outcome parameters in a large cohort. Methods In total, 790 MM patients (471 [60%] male, 319 [40%] female) who underwent PBSC mobilization/collection during first-line treatment were included. Evaluated PBSC mobilization/collection outcome parameters included the prolongation of PBSC mobilization, plerixafor administration, number of LP sessions, and overall PBSC collection goal/result. Results 741 (94%) patients received cyclophosphamide/adriamycin/dexamethasone (CAD) and granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) mobilization. Plerixafor was administered in 80 (10%) patients. 489 (62%) patients started LP without delay. 530 (67%) patients reached the PBSC collection goal at the first LP session. The mean overall PBSC collection result was 10.3 (standard deviation [SD] 4.4) × 106 CD34+ cells/kg. In a multiparametric analysis, variables negatively associated with PBSC mobilization/collection outcomes were female gender, age >60 years, an advanced ISS stage, and local radiation pre-/during induction, but not remission status postinduction. Notably, the identified risk factors contributed differently to each PBSC mobilization/collection outcome parameter. In this context, compared to all other induction regimens, lenalidomide-based induction with/without antibodies negatively affected only the number of LP sessions required to reach the collection goal, but no other PBSC mobilization/collection outcome parameters. In contrast, the probability of reaching a high collection goal of ≥6 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg body weight was higher after lenalidomide-based induction compared to VCD/PAD or VAD - taking into account - that a higher G-SCF dosage was given in approximately one-third of patients receiving lenalidomide-based induction with/without antibodies. Conclusion Considering the identified risk factors in the clinical setting can contribute to optimized PBSC mobilization/collection. Moreover, our study demonstrates the necessity for a differentiated evaluation of PBSC mobilization/collection outcome parameters.

Poor Mobilizers in Lymphoma but Not Myeloma Patients Had Significantly Poorer Progression-Free Survival after Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation: Results of a Large Retrospective, Single-Center Observational Study. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15030608. [PMID: 36765566 PMCID: PMC9913576 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15030608] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2022] [Revised: 01/11/2023] [Accepted: 01/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
In our single-center study, 357 myeloma and lymphoma patients between 2009 and 2019 were mobilized with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF 7.5 µg/kg bid for four days) plus a fixed dose of 24 mg Plerixafor when indicated (Plerixafor Group, n = 187) or G-CSF alone (G-CSF Group, n = 170). The target CD34 cell yields were ≥2.0 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg in lymphoma and ≥4.0 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg in myeloma patients to enable putative second transplants in the latter. There were no significant differences in engraftment kinetics or transfusion requirements between the Plerixafor Group and the control group in the myeloma cohort, with lymphoma patients not requiring Plerixafor showing significantly faster neutrophil recovery, a trend to faster platelet recovery, and a significantly lower need for platelet transfusions, probably due to the significantly lower number of CD34-positive cells re-transfused. While in myeloma patients the outcome (overall survival, progression-free survival) following autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) was similar between the Plerixafor Group and the control group, hard to mobilize lymphoma patients had significantly poorer progression-free survival (47% vs. 74% at 36 months after ASCT, p = 0.003) with a trend also to poorer overall survival (71% vs. 84%). In conclusion, while there seem to be no differences in stemness capacity and long-term engraftment efficiency between the Plerixafor and the G-CSF Group in lymphoma as well as myeloma patients, poor mobilizing lymphoma patients per se constitute a high-risk population with a poorer outcome after ASCT. Whether disease characteristics and/or a more intense or stem cell-toxic pre-mobilization chemo-/radiotherapy burden in this cohort are responsible for this observation remains to be shown in future studies.

Transfus Apher Sci 2022; 61:103351. [PMID: 35022157 DOI: 10.1016/j.transci.2022.103351] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2021] [Revised: 12/31/2021] [Accepted: 01/05/2022] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The molecular mechanism underlying the mobilization and engraftment of CD34+ cells is poorly understood. The most relevant factors in the regulation of stem cell release and engraftment include chemokines, adhesion molecules, and chemokine receptors. Previously, it was suggested that the absence of CD56 expression could be used as a predictive factor for mobilization failure at the time of diagnosis. Here, we investigated the effect of CD56 expression status on both mobilization and engraftment processes. Additionally, other factors affecting mobilization and engraftment efficacy were investigated. METHODS Data from 79 multiple myeloma patients undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation between 2015 and 2020 were analyzed for peripheral stem cell mobilization and posttransplant neutrophil and platelet engraftment according to CD56 expression on myeloma cells. RESULTS No difference in either the median number of CD34+ cells collected or time to engraftment was found between the CD56+ and CD56- groups. The age of the patients (p = 0.025) and peak number of circulating CD34+ cells in peripheral blood (p = 0.005) were important predictors for a higher number of collected CD34+ cells. The average time to recovery of leukocytes and platelets after transplantation was markedly correlated with the number of transplanted stem cells and peak number of circulating CD34+ cells in peripheral blood, respectively (p = 0.049 and p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS Our results indicated no effect of CD56 expression status on the mobilization and engraftment of PBSCs. Our results also support the notion that the peak number of circulating CD34+ cells in peripheral blood is clinically important for rapid platelet engraftment following HPC transplantation.

Development of a quantitative prediction model for peripheral blood stem cell collection yield in the plerixafor era. Cytotherapy 2021; 24:49-58.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AIMS Predicting autologous peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) collection yield before leukapheresis is important for optimizing PBSC mobilization and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for treating hematological malignancies. Although guidelines for plerixafor usage based on peripheral blood CD34+ (PB-CD34+) cell count are available, their predictive performance in the real world remains unclear. METHODS This study retrospectively analyzed 55 mobilization procedures for patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma or multiple myeloma and developed a novel quantitative prediction model for CD34+ cell collection yield that incorporated four clinical parameters available the day before leukapheresis; namely, PB-CD34+ cell count the day before apheresis (day -1 PB-CD34+), number of prior chemotherapy regimens, disease status at apheresis and mobilization protocol. RESULTS The effects of PB-CD34+ cell counts on CD34+ cell collection yield varied widely per patient characteristics, and plerixafor usage was recommended in patients with poorly controlled disease or those with a history of heavy pre-treatments even with abundant day -1 PB-CD34+ cell count. This model suggested a more proactive use of plerixafor than that recommended by the guidelines for patients with poor pre-collection condition or those with a higher target number of CD34+ cells. Further, the authors analyzed the clinical outcomes of ASCT and found that plerixafor use for stem cell mobilization did not affect short- or long-term outcomes after ASCT. CONCLUSIONS Although external validations are necessary, the results can be beneficial for establishing more effective and safer mobilization strategies.

Abstract
Objective: Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is a significant and potentially curative treatment modality for patients with relapsed/refractory lymphoma. Insufficient mobilization and harvest of peripheral stem cells can be a major obstacle for performing ASCT. The aim of this study was to evaluate the factors that might influence mobilization failure in patients with lymphoma. Materials and Methods: Eighty-seven patients diagnosed with non-Hodgkin and Hodgkin lymphoma who underwent stem cell mobilization afterwards at the Hacettepe University Medical School Bone Marrow Transplantation Center, Turkey, between the years of 2000 and 2018 were evaluated. Results: A total of 87 patients were included in this study. In 66 of 87 patients (75.9%), the first mobilization trial was successful. Adequate (≥2x106/kg) CD34+ cells were collected in the first apheresis for 66 patients (9.5±8.1). For 21 of 87 (24.1%), the first mobilization trial was unsuccessful. Therefore, a second mobilization trial was performed for these patients with plerixafor (5.5±3.3). The number of CD34+ cells was significantly higher in patients who were successful in the first mobilization (p=0.002). Conclusion: The success rate of the first mobilization trial was found to be higher in patients with high platelet counts before mobilization and patients who received chemotherapy-based mobilization protocols. In the patients who had mobilization failure in the first trial, plerixafor was used in a later mobilization, and those patients had an adequate amount of stem cells for ASCT. Parameters predicting mobilization failure would allow for preemptive, more cost-effective use of such agents during the first mobilization attempt; however, risk factors for mobilization failure are still not clear.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CD56 is believed to play a major role in MM pathogenesis with a 70% to 80% expression rate in malignant plasma cells at the time of diagnosis. Our objective in this study was to investigate the relationship between the characteristics of CD56 expression in bone marrow aspiration material at the time of diagnosis and the success of stem cell mobilization in patients diagnosed with MM. METHODS This monocenter study included 94 patients who were diagnosed with MM and had a stem cell mobilization procedure for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The primary endpoint of the study was to compare the mobilization success between the groups with and without CD56 expression. The secondary endpoint was to identify other factors affecting mobilization failure outside CD56. RESULTS At the time of diagnosis, 49 (52.1%) patients had CD56 expression and 45 (47.9%) did not. Mobilization failed in 11 (11.7%) patients. Age, gender, ISS stage and the number of premobilization treatment regimens were not found predictive of mobilization failure. CD56 negativity was 42.2% in the group that had mobilization success and 90.9% in the group that had mobilization failure (P = .001). CONCLUSIONS The fact that CD56 residing on the membrane enables interaction between bone marrow cells and ECM and functions as a signal molecule increases sensitivity to the chemotherapy and G-CSF that are used for mobilization. We found that absence of CD56 can be used as a predictive factor for mobilization failure at the time of diagnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity has implications for hematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) mobilization, chemotherapy administration, and medication dosing. We analyzed the impact of obesity on HPC mobilization as well as key outcomes that are associated with cell dose in autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (AHCT) recipients. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study on 556 consecutive eligible AHCT recipients at our institution from 1/2004 to 12/2009. Patients were categorized into four groups based on the body mass index (BMI): underweight (BMI < 18.5), normal (18.5-24.9), overweight (25.0-29.9), or obese (≥30.0). Primary endpoints of interest included HPC mobilization, neutrophil and platelet recovery, hospital stay and survival. RESULTS The diagnoses were mostly non-Hodgkin lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and Hodgkin lymphoma. The majority of the patients had received three or less prior chemotherapy regimens and had not received prior radiation therapy. Most patients had chemosensitive disease at time of transplant. For HPC mobilization regimen, 68% received chemotherapy and G-CSF, 32% received G-CSF alone. Busuflan/etoposide/cyclophosphamide, melphalan, and busulfan/cyclophosphamide were used for conditioning. Obesity did not correlate with HPC mobilization and had no association with neutrophil or platelet recovery, or length of transplant hospitalization. On multivariable analysis, obese patients demonstrated better survival than those who were not obese. CONCLUSION Obese AHCT recipients had similar rates of HPC mobilization, neutrophil and platelet engraftment and length of transplant hospitalization, and experienced better survival compared with recipients with lower BMI. High BMI by itself should not be considered as a contraindication to AHCT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An efficient mobilization and collection of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) are crucial to optimize engraftment in the recipient. We aim to validate a formula that predicted CD34+ cell yield and to describe variables that correlated with high yield mobilization and collection in healthy donors. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed clinical and laboratory data from healthy donors who underwent PBSC collection from 2006 to 2015. The predicted number of collected cells was calculated using the following formula: Total number of CD34+ (cells×106/kg) yield=[(peripheral CD34+ cells/μL)×(0.43)/recipient body weight (kg)]×total liters processed. RESULTS We evaluated 338 collections from 307 allogeneic PBSC donors. The predicted versus the observed number of CD34+ cells/kg collected yielded an r-value of 0.775 (0.726-0.816; p<0.0001). Overall, 55.7% donors had an acceptable mobilization level. Donors with a body weight <67kg were less likely to yield a satisfactory CD34+ cell count (OR=0.44; 95% CI 0.24-0.81), while a white blood cell (WBC) count >40×109/L (OR=3.69; 2.11-6.46) and platelet count ≥200×109/L (OR=2.09; 1.26-3.47) on the day of collection predicted a good level of mobilization. Predictors of a CD34+ cell yield/kg of ≥4×106 with only one apheresis session were: circulating CD34+ cells/μL >40 (OR=16; 6.94-36.93), hemoglobin ≥14g/dL (OR=3.40; 1.53-7.57), WBC >40×109/L (OR=4.61; 2.10-10.10) on the first collection day, and a positive delta weight between donor and recipient (OR=3.10; 1.36-7.06). CONCLUSION The formula for predicting CD34+ cell yield is accurate and suggests the optimal length of time for successful leukapheresis. Validation of the predictors of successful mobilization will help to further refine PBSC leukapheresis procedures.

Abstract
Peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) are preferentially used as a hematopoietic stem cell source for autologous blood stem cell transplantation (ABSCT) upon high-dose chemotherapy (HDT) in a variety of hemato-oncologic diseases. As a prerequisite, hematopoietic stem cells have to be mobilized into the peripheral blood (PB) and collected by leukapheresis (LP). Despite continuous improvements, e.g., the introduction of plerixafor, current challenges are the further optimization regarding the leukapheresis procedure, preventing collection failures, as well as benchmarking and harmonization of mobilization approaches between institutions.This chapter summarizes the current PBSC mobilization and collection approaches and is focusing on timely orchestration of mobilization therapy, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) application, and peripheral blood (PB) CD34+ cell assessment. Moreover, strategies for prediction and performance assessment of the PBSC collection yield are discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mobilization regimen choice is a significant contributing factor for successful hematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) collection by leukocytapheresis and reaching the target CD34+ cell dose. How mobilization regimen affects collection efficiency and the quality of products collected using the Spectra Optia apheresis instrument is not fully known. METHODS We evaluated the impact of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (GCSF) and GCSF/plerixafor mobilization regimens on CE and product composition. We studied 373 leukocytapheresis HPC collections for 147 autologous transplants from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2014. Patients were categorized in two groups; good mobilizers, mobilized with GCSF only (GM) and poor mobilizers, mobilized with GCSF and Plerixafor (PM). RESULTS Overall, compared with PM group, total nucleated cell (TNC) yield was significantly lower in GM group (P = <.001). In contrast, median percent mononuclear cell (MNC) collected from GM (86.5%) was significantly higher than products collected from PM group (79.5%; P < .001). Compared with GM group, CD34+ cell CE was about 10% lower in PM group (P < .008). In addition, daily CD34+ cell/Kg yield was significantly higher in GM (2.08 × 10/Kg) compared with PM group (1.64 x 10/Kg, P = .019). Overall, the median number of collections per patient was two for GM and three for PM (P = .004). CONCLUSION Products collected from PM group contained higher TNC content relative to GM group but had lower MNC enrichment, CD34+ cell CE and daily CD34+ cell yield per Kg.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A low platelet count before mobilization has recurrently been identified as risk factor for poor mobilization. METHODS To determine the relevance of this finding for peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) mobilization, including pre-emptive or rescue plerixafor in the case of poor mobilization, we retrospectively analyzed all patients undergoing PBSC collection at our institution between January 2014 and December 2015 (n = 380). RESULTS In total, 99% of the patients (377/380) successfully collected a minimum of 2 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg body weight sufficient for a single transplant. Rescue or pre-emptive plerixafor was administered to 11% of the patients (42/380). No correlations between the platelet count before mobilization and the number of peripheral blood CD34+ cells or the CD34+ cell collection result were detected in the entire population or the subgroups according to diagnosis (newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, relapsed multiple myeloma, lymphoma, amyloid light-chain amyloidosis, sarcoma, or germ cell tumor). However, patients requiring pre-emptive or rescue plerixafor had a significantly lower platelet count before mobilization (217/nl vs. 245/nl; p = 0.004). CONCLUSION With the current state of the art PBSC mobilization strategies, the platelet count before mobilization was not associated with the CD34+ cell collection result but was associated with the need for pre-emptive or rescue application of plerixafor.

Abstract
In contemporary clinical practice, almost all allogeneic transplantations and autologous transplantations now capitalize on peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) as opposed to bone marrow (BM) for the source of stem cells. In this context, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) plays a pivotal role as the most frequently applied frontline agent for stem cell mobilization. For patients classified as high-risk, chemotherapy based mobilization regimens can be preferred as a first choice and it is notable that this also used for remobilization. Mobilization failure occurs at a rate of 10%-40% with traditional strategies and it typically leads to low-efficiency practices, resource wastage, and delayed in treatment intervention. Notably, however, several factors can impact the effectiveness of CD34+ progenitor cell mobilization, including patient age and medical history (prior chemotherapy or radiotherapy, disease and marrow infiltration at the time of mobilization). In recent years, main (yet largely ineffective) approach was to increase G-CSF dose and add SCF, but novel and promising pathways have been opened up by the synergistic impact of a reversible inhibitor of CXCR4, plerixafor, with G-CSF. The literature shows to its favorable results in upfront and failed mobilizers, and it is necessary to use plerixafor (or equivalent agents) to optimize HSC harvest in poor mobilizers. Different CXCR4 inhibitors, growth hormone, VLA4 inhibitors, and parathormone, have been cited as new agents for mobilization failure in recent years. In view of the above considerations, the purpose of this paper is to examine the mobilization of PBSC while focusing specifically on poor mobilizers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Analysis of the efficiency and toxicity of cyclophosphamide-based stem cell mobilization in patients with relapsed multiple myeloma (RMM). METHODS Peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) were mobilized with high dose cyclophosphamide (2 g/m2 daily on days 1 and 2) and G-CSF plus pre-emptive/rescue plerixafor in RMM patients (first to third relapse) treated within the ReLApsE trial of the German-Speaking Myeloma Multicenter Group (GMMG). RESULTS Mobilization was initiated with high-dose cyclophosphamide (HD-CY) and G-CSF in 30 patients. Fifteen patients received additional pre-emptive/rescue administration of plerixafor. Stem cell collection was successful (≥2×106 CD34+ cells per kg bw) in 77% (23/30 patients). Patients with prior high-dose melphalan collected a significantly lower median total number of PBSCs than patients without prior high-dose melphalan (3.3×106 vs 17×106 CD34+ cells/kg bw). Toxicity of HD-CY was frequent with 12 serious adverse events (SAE) in 37% of patients (11/30 patients). Infections accounted for the majority of SAE reports. In two patients, SAEs were lethal (septic shock). CONCLUSIONS These data proof feasibility of PBSC collection at relapse but emphasize the importance of collection and storage of additional PBSC transplants during first-line treatment when mobilization is more efficient and less toxic.

Abstract
Selected patients with certain hematological malignancies and solid tumors have the potential to achieve long-term survival with autologous hematopoietic progenitor cell transplant. The collection of these cells in peripheral blood avoids multiple bone marrow aspirations, results in faster engraftment and allows treatment of patients with infection, fibrosis, or bone marrow hypocellularity. However, for the procedure to be successful, it is essential to mobilize a sufficient number of progenitor cells from the bone marrow into the blood circulation. Therefore, a group of Brazilian experts met in order to develop recommendations for mobilization strategies adapted to the reality of the Brazilian national health system, which could help minimize the risk of failure, reduce toxicity and improve the allocation of financial resources.

Abstract
Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the standard therapy for refractory/relapsed aggressive lymphoma. The initial step of the procedure involves mobilization and collection of hematopoietic stem cells. G-CSF fails to achieve mobilization in 15-25% of lymphoma patients. Plerixafor is a novel CXCR4 antagonist that can promote mobilization. It has been used successfully in patients after the failure of G-CSF. It is reasonable to test whether plerixafor should become the mobilizing agent of choice in patients expected to exhibit difficulties in mobilization. We initiated a study to assess the use of plerixafor as a first-line stem cell mobilizer in 20 elderly or heavily pretreated patients with non-Hodgkin or Hodgkin lymphoma. The minimum defined CD34+ cell dose of ≥2 × 106 cells/kg was achieved by 90% of the patients, and for 83% of them with one apheresis procedure. The target CD34+ dose of ≥5 × 106 cells/kg was achieved by 70% of the patients. The median number of circulating CD34+ cells before and after plerixafor was 14.4 and 42.8 cells/μl, respectively. The post-plerixafor adverse events were mild. All patients promptly engrafted after high-dose chemotherapy treatment. We conclude that plerixafor administration is safe and efficient for upfront mobilization in lymphoma patients predicted to be poor mobilizers.

Abstract
Peripheral blood stem cell collection is currently the most widely used source for hematopoietic autologous transplantation. Several factors such as advanced age, previous chemotherapy, disease and marrow infiltration at the time of mobilization influence the efficacy of CD34(+) progenitor cell mobilization. Despite the safety and efficiency of the standard mobilization protocols (G-CSF ± chemotherapy), there is still a significant amount of mobilization failure rate (10-40%), which necessitate novel agents for effective mobilization. Plerixafor, is a novel agent, has been recently approved for mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). The combination of Plerixafor with G-CSF provides the collection of large numbers of stem cells in fewer apheresis sessions and can salvage those who fail with standard mobilization regimens. The development and optimization of practical algorithms for the use Plerixafor is crucial to make hematopoietic stem cell mobilization more efficient in a cost-effective way. This review is aimed at summarizing how to identify poor mobilizers, and define rational use of Plerixafor for planning mobilization in hard-to-mobilize patients.

Abstract
Hemotopoietic stem cell mobilization with cytokines alone, has still been widely accepted as the initial attempt for stem cell mobilization. Chemotherapy based mobilization can be preferred as first choice in high risk patients or for remobilization. But mobilization failure still remains to be a problem in one third of patients. Salvage mobilization strategies have been composed to give one more chance to 'poor mobilizers'. Synergistic effect of a reversible inhibitor of CXCR4, plerixafor, with G-CSF has opened a new era for these patients. Preemptive approach in predicted poor mobilizers, immediate salvage approach for patients with suboptimal mobilization or remobilization approach of plerixafor in failed mobilizers have all been demonstrated convincing results in various studies. Alternative CXCR4 inhibitors, VLA4 inhibitors, bortezomib, parathormone have also been emerged as novel agents for mobilization failure.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) transplantations require prior harvesting of allogeneic or autologous HSPCs. HSPCs are usually present in bone marrow (BM) during the entire life, in cord blood (CB) at birth, or in peripheral blood (PB) under particular circumstances. HSPCs were first harvested in BM and later in CB and PB, as studies showed interesting features of such grafts. All harvesting methods were in use throughout the years, except BM harvesting for HSPC autologous transplantation, which was replaced by PB harvesting. BM, CB, and PB harvesting methods have been developed, and materials and devices technically improved to increase the number of HSPCs harvested. In parallel, knowing the features of the donors or patients associated with successful numbers of HSPCs allows the adaptation of appropriate harvesting methods. Moreover, it is important to ensure the safety of donors or patients while harvesting. This review describes the methods used for harvesting based on recent studies or developments around these methods, and more particularly, the means developed to increase the numbers of HSPCs harvested in each method. It also explains briefly the influence of technical improvements in HSPC harvesting on potential changes in HSPC graft composition.

Abstract
ICE/R-ICE (ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide without or with rituximab) chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation is an established regimen in refractory/relapsed lymphoma. Few studies have addressed which factors are important in determining peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) mobilization efficiency or nonmobilization following ICE/R-ICE. Between 2004 and 2013, 88 patients with refractory/relapsed lymphoma who received ICE/R-ICE salvage-chemotherapy prior to granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) stimulated PBSC mobilization at a single center were identified. Mobilization efficiency was assessed by time from ICE/R-ICE to day of harvest, duration of G-CSF use, days to peripheral blood (PB) CD34(+) ≥15/µL, PB CD34(+) number on harvest day, CD34(+) yield and nonmobilization rate. Median PB CD34(+) at harvest were 54/μL (7-524); median days to first apheresis was 15 (11-30); median harvested total CD34(+) were 5.46 × 10(6) /kg (0.96-44.36); 71 patients (80.7%) successfully mobilized; 20 (22.7%) patients were poor mobilizers; 14 (15.9%) patients were considered nonmobilizers with maximal PB CD34(+) <7/µL and did not proceed to apheresis. Six of 20 poor mobilizers were apheresed with PB CD34(+) 7-12/µL, 50% were successfully harvested. No differences were found between ICE and R-ICE regimens. Impaired mobilization efficiency was associated with age, remission status, >1 line of induction chemotherapy, four cycles ICE/R-ICE and grade 4 neutropenia. Prior bone marrow (BM) involvement was associated with nonmobilization. The majority of patients can be successfully mobilized with ICE/R-ICE. Prior BM involvement is associated with high rates of nonmobilization following ICE/R-ICE. Such patients may benefit from novel mobilization agents and/or alternative salvage regimens to ICE/R-ICE.

Analysis of the feasibility of early hospital discharge after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and the implications to nursing care. Rev Bras Hematol Hemoter 2014; 36:264-8. [PMID: 25031165 PMCID: PMC4207907 DOI: 10.1016/j.bjhh.2014.05.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2013] [Accepted: 03/18/2014] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is a conduct used to treat some hematologic diseases and to consolidate the treatment of others. In the field of nursing, the few published scientific studies on nursing care and early hospital discharge of transplant patients are deficient. Knowledge about the diseases treated using hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, providing guidance to patients and caregivers and patient monitoring are important nursing activities in this process. Guidance may contribute to long-term goals through patients’ short-term needs. Aim To analyze the results of early hospital discharge on the treatment of patients submitted to autologous transplantation and the influence of nursing care on this conduct. Methods A retrospective, quantitative, descriptive and transversal study was conducted. The hospital records of 112 consecutive patients submitted to autologous transplantation in the period from January to December 2009 were revisited. Of these, 12 patients, who remained in hospital for more than ten days after transplantation, were excluded from the study. Results The medical records of 100 patients with a median age of 48.5 years (19–69 years) were analyzed. All patients were mobilized and hematopoietic stem cells were collected by leukapheresis. The most common conditioning regimes were BU12Mel100 and BEAM 400. Toxicity during conditioning was easily managed in the outpatient clinic. Gastrointestinal toxicity, mostly Grades I and II, was seen in 69% of the patients, 62% of patients had diarrhea, 61% of the patients had nausea and vomiting and 58% had Grade I and II mucositis. Ten patients required hospitalization due to the conditioning regimen. Febrile neutropenia was seen in 58% of patients. Two patients died before Day +60 due to infections, one with aplasia. The median times to granulocyte and platelet engraftment were 12 days and 15 days, respectively, with median red blood cell and platelet transfusions until discharge of three and four units, respectively. Twenty-three patients required rehospitalization before being discharged from the outpatient clinic. Conclusion The median time to granulocyte engraftment was 12 days and during the aplasia phase few patients were hospitalized or suffered infections. The toxicity of the conditioning was the leading cause of rehospitalization. The nursing staff participated by providing guidance to patients and during the mobilization, transplant and outpatient follow-up phases, thus helping to successfully manage toxicity.

Abstract
Autologous haematopoietic SCT with PBSCs is regularly used to restore BM function in patients with multiple myeloma or lymphoma after myeloablative chemotherapy. Twenty-eight experts from the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation developed a position statement on the best approaches to mobilising PBSCs and on possibilities of optimising graft yields in patients who mobilise poorly. Choosing the appropriate mobilisation regimen, based on patients' disease stage and condition, and optimising the apheresis protocol can improve mobilisation outcomes. Several factors may influence mobilisation outcomes, including older age, a more advanced disease stage, the type of prior chemotherapy (e.g., fludarabine or melphalan), prior irradiation or a higher number of prior treatment lines. The most robust predictive factor for poor PBSC collection is the CD34(+) cell count in PB before apheresis. Determination of the CD34(+) cell count in PB before apheresis helps to identify patients at risk of poor PBSC collection and allows pre-emptive intervention to rescue mobilisation in these patients. Such a proactive approach might help to overcome deficiencies in stem cell mobilisation and offers a rationale for the use of novel mobilisation agents.

Abstract
The introduction of plerixafor as a peripheral blood stem cell mobilization agent has allowed more patients with multiple myeloma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and Hodgkin's disease to mobilize sufficient hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) to proceed to autologous transplantation. Because of the high cost of plerixafor, it is not routinely used in all patients undergoing HPC mobilization. If cost were not an issue, an argument could be made that plerixafor could be added to every mobilization regimen, but cost is an issue so in an attempt to be more cost-effective, many centers have limited plerixafor use to patients who have failed or who are predicted to fail collection of adequate numbers of cells by other methods. Additionally, plerixafor is now under investigation both for HPC collection of healthy donors for allogeneic stem cell transplantation and as an adjunct therapy (i.e., chemosensitizing agent) for acute leukemias. This article briefly reviews the role of plerixafor in autologous and allogeneic transplantation as well as its emerging role in the treatment of acute leukemias. Emphasis is placed on the choice of appropriate patients for plerixafor use to assure an adequate stem cell yield while maximizing the cost effectiveness of using plerixafor. The role of prophylactic collections and future areas of research are also presented.

Abstract
Autologous stem cell transplantation is an important part of therapy in patients with multiple myeloma. Some patients fail to collect the desired number of stem cells while others require multiple apheresis to reach the desired apheresis target. The aim of this study was to determine the predictive factors and if the hematopoietic kinetics of recovery were predictive for outcome of stem cell mobilization in cyclophosphamide + growth factor (CY-GF) mobilized patients. Three hundred and ninety six consecutive CY-GF mobilization attempts between January 2000 and December 2009 at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN were analyzed. Patients were divided into three groups: optimal (>5 × 10(6) CD34/kg), suboptimal (2-5 × 10(6) CD34/kg) and poor (<2 × 10(6) /kg CD34+ cells) mobilization groups. About 86% of patients had optimal stem cell collection, whereas 8% had suboptimal collection and 6% had poor (or failed) collections. Age, Hb, WBC, and platelet levels had an impact on mobilization results. Time to peripheral blood (PB) CD34+cells >10/μL predicted for efficiency of collection and the interval between recovery of WBC>1 post-CY to PB CD34+ cells>10 was shorter in the optimal collection groups. These findings suggest that for patients with a PB CD34+ cell count below 10/μL on Day 13 following CY or 1 day after the WBC>1 × 10(9) /L, addition of plerixafor may be helpful to salvage the mobilization attempt.

Abstract
The effectiveness of the novel hematopoietic stem cell mobilizing agent plerixafor was evaluated in nationwide compassionate use programs in 13 European countries. A total of 580 poor mobilizers with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) and multiple myeloma (MM) were enrolled. All patients received plerixafor plus granulocyte CSF with or without chemotherapy. Overall, the collection yield was significantly higher in MM patients (>2.0 × 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg: 81.6%; >5.0 × 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg: 32.0%) than in NHL patients (>2.0 × 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg: 64.8%; >5.0 × 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg: 12.6%; P<0.0001) and also significantly higher in HL patients (>2.0 × 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg: 81.5%; >5.0 × 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg: 22.2%) than in NHL patients (P=0.013). In a subgroup analysis, there were no significant differences in mobilization success comparing patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma. Our data emphasize the role of plerixafor in poor mobilizers, but further strategies to improve the apheresis yield especially in patients with NHL are required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Marrow damage from chemo- and radiation therapies has been suggested to affect quality and quantity of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) products. We tested the hypothesis that CD34+ cells (HSCs) from low mobilizers are qualitatively inferior to HSCs from high mobilizers. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS HSC quality was defined by proportion of primitive HSC subsets (CD34+CD38-, CD34+HLA-DR-, and CD34+ in G0 stage of cell cycle), the proportion of HSCs that express CXCR4 and CD26 homing proteins, and days to neutrophil and platelet (PLT) engraftments after transplant. HSC content and CD34 subsets analyses were performed using flow cytometry following the ISHAGE protocol. We evaluated the HSC quantity and quality of 139 autologous filgrastim-mobilized HSC products. Patients were categorized into low, moderate, and high mobilizers if their total HSC collection was less than 3 × 10(6), 3 × 10(6) or more and less than 5 × 10(6), and 5 × 10(6)/kg or more, respectively. RESULTS The median number of primitive CD34 subsets increases with increasing HSC numbers and this association was significant (p = 0.001). However, when the ratios of the primitive CD34 subsets to total HSC counts were compared among the mobilization groups, the ratios were not significantly different. Coexpression of neither CD26 nor CXCR4 with CD34 antigen correlated with HSC mobilization. Evaluation of days to neutrophil engraftment among the mobilization groups did not show a significant difference (p = 0.1). However, days to PLT engraftment among the mobilization groups was significantly different (p = 0.05). CONCLUSION The quality of HSCs from low mobilizers was comparable to HSCs from high mobilizers.

Abstract
The CXCR4-inhibitor plerixafor mobilizes hematopoietic stem cells amplifying the effects of granulocyte-CSF (G-CSF). Before approval plerixafor was used in a compassionate use program (CUP) for patients who failed a previous mobilization. In the German CUP 60 patients from 23 centers (median age 56.5 years (2-75)) were given 240 μg/kg plerixafor SC 9-11 h before apheresis. A total of 78.3% (47/60) received G-CSF for 4 days before plerixafor administration; 76.6% of those (36/47) yielded at least 2.0 × 10(6) CD34(+) cells/μL. The median cell yield was 3.35 × 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg (0-29.53). Nine patients received plerixafor alone or with G-CSF for less than 4 days mobilizing a median of 3.30 × 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg (1.6-5.6). There was no significant difference between G-CSF application for 4 days and for a shorter period of time (P=0.157). A total of 47 patients received plerixafor plus G-CSF combined with chemotherapy yielding a median of 3.28 × 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg (0-24.79). In all, 40 of 60 patients (66.7%) proceeded to transplantation, and achieved a timely and stable engraftment. Side effects were rare and manageable. In conclusion, mobilization with plerixafor in poor mobilizers is safe and results in a sufficient stem cell harvest in the majority of patients.

Abstract
Many lymphoma and myeloma patients fail to undergo ASCT owing to poor mobilization. Identification of poor mobilizers (PMs) would provide a tool for early intervention with new mobilization agents. The Gruppo italianoTrapianto di Midollo Osseo working group proposed a definition of PMs applicable to clinical trials and clinical practice. The analytic hierarchy process, a method for group decision making, was used in setting prioritized criteria. Lymphoma or myeloma patients were defined as ‘proven PM' when: (1) after adequate mobilization (G-CSF 10 μg/kg if used alone or ⩾5 μg/kg after chemotherapy) circulating CD34+ cell peak is <20/μL up to 6 days after mobilization with G-CSF or up to 20 days after chemotherapy and G-CSF or (2) they yielded <2.0 × 106 CD34+ cells per kg in ⩽3 apheresis. Patients were defined as predicted PMs if: (1) they failed a previous collection attempt (not otherwise specified); (2) they previously received extensive radiotherapy or full courses of therapy affecting SC mobilization; and (3) they met two of the following criteria: advanced disease (⩾2 lines of chemotherapy), refractory disease, extensive BM involvement or cellularity <30% at the time of mobilization; age ⩾65 years. This definition of proven and predicted PMs should be validated in clinical trials and common clinical practice.

Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is curative treatment in various hematologic malignancies. Mobilization and collection of peripheral blood stem cell is the essential part of ASCT. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of various mobilization regimens, determine the risk factors associated with mobilization failure (MF). We also investigated whether iron overload, which has an adverse impact on various aspects of HSCT including overall survival had any impact on mobilization kinetics. A total of 118 consecutive patients were included in this study. The rate of MF was 11.8 % with the first mobilization regimen. Frequency of MF was higher in lymphoma (P < 0.001) patients and in those receiving G-CSF alone (P= 0.01). Peripheral CD34+ cell count (P < 0.001), bone marrow cellularity (P < 0.001), reticulin fibrosis (P < 0.05) were significantly lower whereas serum ferritin levels (P = 0.06) tended to be higher in patients with MF. CD34+ cell count of the first apheresis product was positively correlated with the white blood cell count (P < 0.05; r = 0.232), platelet count (P = 0.01; r = 0.233), peripheral CD34+ cell count (P < 0.001; r = 0.704) and the grade of bone marrow reticulin fibrosis (P < 0.001; r = 0.366). Serum ferritin levels were negatively correlated with maximum peripheral CD34+ cell count (P = 0.02; r = -0.216) and the CD34+ cell count in the first product (P = 0.05; r = -0.183). Platelet count (P = 0.03; β = 0.262), peripheral CD34+ cell count (P = 0.02; β=0.279) were the two variables which remained to be significant in multivariate analysis. Predicting the poor mobilizers with the platelet count for instance may reduce the risk of MF by using more effective regimens in advance.

Abstract
New advances in effective mobilization of peripheral blood stem cells have permitted a greater proportion of patients to benefit from autologous stem cell transplantation. In this review, the relative merits of peripheral blood and mobilized bone marrow are discussed. All available agents are reviewed. A critical assessment of the appropriate dosing and frequency of available growth factors is undertaken, and the most commonly used chemotherapy plus growth factor combinations are covered. Specific recommendations for patients who are poor mobilizers are dealt with including the role of plerixafor.

Abstract
Being underweight is associated with a poorer outcome after haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). We investigated whether nutritional status affects a patient's ability to mobilise stem cells. Weights, heights, peripheral blood CD34 counts and total collected stem cells were collected on 305 patients. Those patients who were underweight had a lower median peripheral blood CD34 count than those who were not underweight (36.0 vs. 53.0 × 10(6)/L (p = 0.0047)). However, the proportion of patients achieving a collection containing the minimum number of CD34 cells required to define a successful stem cell collection was similar in those who were underweight and those who were not. Therefore being underweight may reduce a patient's ability to mobilise peripheral blood stem cells and, if confirmed, improving nutritional status may reduce the number of patients who fail to mobilise.

Abstract
The combination of cyclophosphamide and granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) has widely been used to mobilize hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) for autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for multiple myeloma (MM). Recently, however, alternative approaches such as G-CSF alone or etoposide followed by G-CSF have been investigated. We, therefore, retrospectively analyzed the effects of these mobilization methods on collection yield and disease outcome in ASCT for MM. We reviewed 146 MM patients from whom we intended to collect stem cells. For mobilization, 67, 58, and 21 patients received cyclophosphamide and G-CSF, etoposide and G-CSF, and G-CSF alone (including nonmyelosuppressive chemotherapy followed by G-CSF), respectively. Among them, 136 achieved the target number of HSCs (at least 2 x 10(6)/kg). Lower creatinine and higher albumin levels at diagnosis were significantly associated with successful yield. A lower number of infused HSCs, use of the etoposide for mobilization and high ISS were associated with delayed hematopoietic recovery. The mobilization methods did not significantly affect either the successful collection of more than 2 x 10(6) CD34-positive cells/kg or PFS after ASCT. G-CSF alone was sufficient for stem cell mobilization for a single ASCT. The optimal approach to collect HSCs in MM remains to be elucidated.

Abstract
CD34+ peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are usually collected following mobilization therapy accomplished by using growth factors (GF) such as rHuG-CSF or rHuGM-CSF with or without chemotherapy. A target dose of yielded CD34+ is usually prescribed by the attending physician depending on different protocols, which may include single or double transplantation. HSC collection usually is performed when at least 20 CD34+ HSC/microL are detected by means of flow cytometry. A cumulative dose of at least 2 x 10(6)/Kg/bw CD34+ HSC has been considered as the threshold to allow a prompt and persistent hematopoietic recovery. Unfortunately, this goal is not achieved by the totality of patients undergoing mobilization regimen. In fact, 5-46% of patients who underwent mobilization therapy fail HSC collection due to very low peripheral blood HSC CD34+ count. Patients' characteristics, including age, sex, stage of the underlying disease (complete or partial remission), diagnosis, previously administered radio/chemotherapy regimens, time-lapse from last chemotherapy before mobilization and mobilization schedule (including dose of GF) were considered as possibly predictive of poor or failed mobilization. We performed a retrospective analysis in 2177 patients from three large Italian academic institutions to assess the incidence of poor mobilizers within our patients' series. Therefore, a patient who fails a first mobilization (and when an HLA-compatible related on unrelated donor is not available) could undergo a second attempt either with different mobilization schedule or by using different GF, such as stem cell factor, growth hormone (GH), or more recently newly introduced drugs such as AMD3100, alone or in combination with rHuG- or -rHuGM-CSF. Thus, we investigated the fate of those who failed a first mobilization and subsequently underwent a second attempt or alternative therapeutic approaches.
