On-demand plerixafor added to high-dose cyclophosphamide and pegylated recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor in the mobilization of patients with multiple myeloma: a treatment with high effectiveness, convenient, and affordable cost. Front Oncol 2024; 13:1306367. [PMID: 38298443 PMCID: PMC10827932 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1306367] [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: 10/03/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 02/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective The combination of high-dose cyclophosphamide (HD-Cy) (3g/m2) plus granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and on-demand plerixafor (PXF) has been considered an effective mobilization regimen of patients with multiple myeloma(MM). However, the daily multi-injection regimen of G-CSF poses challenges. This study delves into the efficiency and cost implications of a novel approach, using HD-Cy alongside pegylated G-CSF (PEG G-CSF) and on-demand PXF. Unlike G-CSF, which necessitates daily injections, the half-life of PEG G-CSF extended allows for a single injection. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 350 MM patients, which were categorized based on their mobilization regimens: Cy+PEG G-CSF+/-PXF (n=66), Cy+PEG G-CSF (n=91), Cy+ G-CSF (n=169), and G-CSF+PXF (n=24). Results Mobilization with Cy+PEG G-CSF+/-PXF(8.79)yielded a notably higher median CD34+ cell count compared to the other regimens: Cy+PEG G-CSF(4.96), Cy+G-CSF (4.65), and G-CSF+PXF (2.99) (P<0.001). The percentage of patients who achieved >6×106/kg CD34+ cells was significantly higher in the Cy+PEG G-CSF+/-PXF group (77.3%) than in the other mobilization regimens: Cy+PEG G-CSF (41.8%), Cy+ G-CSF (37.3%), and G-CSF+PXF (8.3%) (P<0.001). From a cost perspective, the Cy+PEG G-CSF+/-PXF approach was more economical than the G-CSF+PXF strategy but was marginally costlier than the other two methods. A multivariate assessment highlighted that the combination of Cy+PEG G-CSF with on-demand PXF had a superior potential to achieve the desired harvest (6×106/kg) compared to the Cy+PEG G-CSF protocol without PXF. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio for each 1% increase in the probability of achieving a successful optimal harvest was $ 97.02 per patient. The incidence of neutropenic fever was 3.0% in the Cy+PEG G-CSF+/-PXF group. Conclusion The combination of on-demand PXF with HD-Cy and PEG G-CSF offers a cost-effective approach with a high mobilization success rate, manageable side effects, and the convenience of fewer injections. It stands as a promising mobilization strategy for MM patients.

Abstract
Background Multiple myeloma is currently the leading indication for autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (AHCT). A prerequisite for AHCT is mobilization and collection of adequate blood graft to support high-dose therapy. Current mobilization strategies include granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) alone or in combination with chemotherapy most commonly cyclophosphamide (CY). More recently, plerixafor has become into agenda especially in patients who mobilize poorly. In the selection of a mobilization method, several factors should be considered. Summary Preplanned collection target is important as G-CSF plus plerixafor is more effective in the mobilization of CD34+ cells than G-CSF alone. On the other hand, CY plus G-CSF is superior to G-CSF only mobilization. Previous therapy and age of the patients are important considerations as G-CSF alone may not be effective enough in patients with risk factors for poor mobilization. These factors include extensive lenalidomide exposure, irradiation to bone marrow-bearing sites, higher age, or a previous mobilization failure. Also, local preferences and experiences as well as the number of apheresis needed are important issues as well as cost-effectiveness considerations. Mobilization method used may have implication for cellular composition of collected grafts, which might have an impact on posttransplant events such as hematologic and immune recovery in addition to also potential long-term outcomes. Key Message Currently, G-CSF alone and preemptive plerixafor if needed might be considered as a standard mobilization strategy in MM patients intended for AHCT.

Multiple Myeloma: Risk Adapted Use of Plerixafor for Stem Cell Mobilization Prior to Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation is Effective and Cost Efficient. CLINICAL LYMPHOMA MYELOMA & LEUKEMIA 2021; 22:44-51. [PMID: 34452863 DOI: 10.1016/j.clml.2021.07.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2021] [Revised: 07/19/2021] [Accepted: 07/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We used plerixafor in 'a risk adapted approach' for stem cell mobilization for multiple myeloma (MM) patients prior to autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). PATIENTS AND METHODS Between January, 2017 and December, 2019 105 consecutive patients of MM were recruited (Study Cohort). Patients received inj G-CSF 10 µg/kg in 2 divided doses for 5 days. Day 4 peripheral blood (PB) CD34+ count was used as a guide; if count was < 20 cells/µl, patients received plerixafor. For those with ≥ 20 cells/µl apheresis was commenced on day 5. We compared their outcome with 156 MM patients transplanted between 2012 and 2016 with G-CSF mobilized PB stem cells (Control Cohort). Primary end point was to collect ≥2.0 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg (minimal harvest). Secondary end points were: no of apheresis sessions, percentage of patients with optimal stem cell harvest (≥4.0 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg) and cost analysis. An intent to treat analysis was done. RESULT 96.2% of patients achieved ≥ 2.0 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg in the study cohort vs. 87.2% in the control cohort, P < .01. Mean apheresis sessions were 1.5 vs. 1.7 respectively, P < .014 . Optimal stem cell harvest was 29.5% vs. 16%,P = .23. Days for neutrophil engraftment (P < 0.025) and for IV antibiotics (P < .0017) were favorable for the study cohort. Incremental cost effectiveness ratio was $ 15.80/- and $ 10.56/- per 1% increase to achieve a minimal and optimal harvest. CONCLUSION Plerixafor in this risk adapted strategy resulted in successful mobilization, decreased time to engraftment and was cost effective.

Chemotherapy-based versus chemotherapy-free stem cell mobilization (± plerixafor) in multiple myeloma patients: an Italian cost-effectiveness analysis. Bone Marrow Transplant 2021; 56:1876-1887. [PMID: 33753907 PMCID: PMC8338551 DOI: 10.1038/s41409-021-01251-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2020] [Revised: 02/03/2021] [Accepted: 02/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Given the availability and efficacy of the mobilizing agent plerixafor in augmenting hematopoietic progenitor cell mobilization with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), there is a strong case for comparing the cost-effectiveness of mobilization with G-CSF + cyclophosphamide versus G-CSF alone. This study investigated the cost and effectiveness (i.e., successful 4 million-CD34+ collection) of G-CSF alone versus high-dose cyclophosphamide (4 g/m2) + G-CSF mobilization (± on-demand plerixafor) in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) eligible for autograft in Italy. A decision tree-supported cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) model in MM patients was developed from the societal perspective. The CEA model compared G-CSF alone with cyclophosphamide 4 g/m2 + G-CSF (± on-demand plerixafor) and was populated with demographic, healthcare and non-healthcare resource utilization data collected from a questionnaire administered to six Italian oncohematologists. Costs were expressed in Euro (€) 2019. The CEA model showed that G-CSF alone was strongly dominant versus cyclophosphamide + G-CSF ( ± on-demand plerixafor), with incremental savings of €1198.59 and an incremental probability of a successful 4 million-CD34+ apheresis (+0.052). Sensitivity analyses confirmed the robustness of the base-case results. In conclusion, chemotherapy-free mobilization (± on-demand plerixafor) is a “good value for money” option for MM patients eligible for autograft.

Abstract
The optimal stem cell (SC) mobilization strategy for patients with multiple myeloma (MM) remains a matter of debate. Possible approaches include low or high doses of cyclophosphamide (Cy), other chemotherapeutic agents, or granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) alone. The scope of the study was to compare low-dose Cy plus G-CSF versus intermediate-high-dose Cy plus G-CSF versus G-CSF alone for SC mobilization in MM, in terms of efficacy and safety. We retrospectively analyzed 422 MM patients undergoing SC mobilization in 6 Italian centers, including 188 patients who received low-dose Cy (LD-Cy group, defined as 2 g/m2), 163 patients who received intermediate-high-dose Cy (HD-Cy group, defined as ≥ 3 g/m2), and 71 patients who received G-CSF alone (G-CSF group). The median peak of circulating CD34+ cells was 77/µL in the LD-Cy group, 92/µL in the HD-Cy group, and 55/µL in the G-CSF group (P = .0001). The median amount of SCs collected was 9.1 × 106/kg, 9.7 × 106/kg, and 5.6 × 106/kg in the 3 groups, respectively (P = .0001). The rate of mobilization failure (defined as failure to collect ≥2 × 106/kg) was 3.7% in the LD-Cy group, 3.4% in the HD-Cy group, and 4.3% in the G-CSF group (P = .9). The target SC dose of at least 4 × 106/kg was reached in 90.4%, 91.1%, and 78.6% of the patients in these 3 groups, respectively (P = .014). The "on demand" use of plerixafor was higher in the G-CSF group (76%) compared with the LD-Cy group (19%) and the HD-Cy group (6%). In multivariate analysis, G-CSF mobilization and previous use of melphalan or radiotherapy were independently associated with failure to collect the target SC dose of ≥4 × 106/kg. No impacts of age, blood counts, or previous treatment with lenalidomide, bortezomib, or carfilzomib were observed. Our results suggest that LD-Cy may be considered for successful SC mobilization in patients with MM.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the effect and safety of plerixafor combined with G-CSF mobilization in plasma cell disease. Methods: The clinical baseline data, success rate of collection, and adverse reactions of consecutive cases of plasma cell disease were analyzed retrospectively, where the patients received plerixafor combined with G-CSF for autologous hematopoietic stem cell mobilization in Peking University People's Hospital from January 2018 to December 2019. Results: Forty-nine patients with plasma disease were included, of which 39 (79.6% ) were multiple myeloma, 8 (16.3% ) were amyloidosis, and 2 (4.1% ) were monoclonal gammopathy of renal significance. A total of 16 patients (32.7% ) had renal insufficiency, and 7 patients (14.3% ) had previous collection failure. The median times of apheresis was 1 (1-3) , median days of apheresis was 2 (1-3) days, 47 patients (95.9% ) were successfully collected for once, and the success rate of collection for twice was 100% after using plerixafor for mobilization. In 16 patients with renal insufficiency, collection was successful in 5 patients (31.3% ) on the first day, while aphresis was required in 8 patients (50% ) on the second day and 3 (18.8% ) on the third day. The main adverse reactions were fatigue, insomnia, abdominal pain, diarrhea, dizziness, and arthralgia. A total of 37 patients underwent autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with 11 (8-13) days for neutrophil engraftment, and 11 (9-26) days for platelet engraftment. Conclusions: Plerixafor combined with G-CSF has a high success rate in mobilizaion of autologous hematopoietic stem cells in patients with plasma cell disease with minimum side effects, even in patients with renal insufficiency.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cyclophosphamide (CY) in a dose of 2-4 g/m2 is widely used for hemopoietic progenitor stem cells mobilization. CY administration is associated with several adverse effects, including chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of granisetron transdermal system (GTDS) plus dexamethasone in the management of CINV in MM patients undergoing chemo-mobilization with CY. METHODS In this single-center, prospective, observational, real world study, GTDS plus dexamethasone was administered to MM patients receiving chemo-mobilization based on CY 2 g/m2 plus G-CSF in an outpatient setting. The rate of complete response was evaluated as the main outcome. Other outcomes were rate of complete control of CINV, incidence of nausea/vomiting of any grade and safety. RESULTS A total of 88 patients were enrolled. A complete response was achieved in 45.5 % of patients; among them, 39.77 % attained complete control of CINV. Nausea and vomiting never occurred in 34.1 % and 45.5 % of patients, respectively. No episodes of grade 3-4 nausea and/or vomiting were documented. GTDS was safe and well tolerated. CONCLUSION In real world, GTDS provided an innovative, effective, and well-tolerated control of CINV in MM patients after chemo-mobilization with CY. The study found out effectiveness of a non-invasive delivery system of antiemetic.

Abstract
Plerixafor in combination granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) has been used for the mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) to the peripheral blood for collection and subsequent autologous transplantation in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and multiple myeloma (MM). The aim of this study was to systematically search the published literature and analyze evidence on the efficacy of additional plerixafor for successful HSC mobilization in patients with NHL and MM, and to evaluate the safety of the drug. The PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) and Google scholar databases were searched electronically for studies published in the English language up to March, 2019. Five studies (3 on NHL and 2 on MM) were included in this review article. The meta-analysis of data of 364 patients in the treatment group and 368 patients in the control group, indicated that the mobilization of ≥5/6×106 CD34+ cells/kg in 4 or less apheresis days was superior with plerixafor + G-CSF than with G-CSF alone (RR=2.59, 95% CI: 1.40 to 4.81; P<0.0001). Similarly, a greater proportion of patients in the treatment group exhibited the mobilization of ≥2×106 CD34+ cells/kg in 4 or less apheresis days (RR=1.46, 95% CI: 1.01 to 2.12; P=0.04). The addition of plerixafor significantly increased the total collection of CD34+ cells (random: MD=4.21; 95% CI: 2.85 to 5.57; P<0.00001). Meta-analysis indicated no significant increase in adverse events with the addition of plerixafor for HSC mobilization (RR=1.03, 95% CI: 0.99 to 1.06; P=0.16). On the whole, the findings of this study indicate that the addition of plerixafor to G-CSF leads to an increased HSC collection in a shorter period of time with no concomitant increase in adverse events. Further randomized controlled trials with a larger sample size evaluating short term efficacy, as well as long term survival would help to further strengthen the evidence on this subject.

Abstract
Mobilization failure is a major concern in patients undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation, especially in an autologous setting, as almost all donor harvests can be accomplished with granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) alone. Poor mobilizers, defined as those with a peripheral blood CD34+ cell count ≤20 cells/μl after mobilization preceding apheresis is a significant risk factor for mobilization failure. We recommend preemptive plerixafor plus G-CSF (filgrastim, 10 μg/kg daily) as a first mobilization strategy, which yields sufficient peripheral blood progenitor cells (PBPCs) in almost all patients and avoids otherwise unnecessary remobilization. Preemptive plerixafor is administered in patients with a day-4 peripheral blood CD34+ count <15, depending on the disease and the target PBPC amount. Cyclophosphamide is reserved for patients who fail the first PBPC collection. We recommend second mobilization for patients who could not achieve a sufficient PBPC amount with the first mobilization. In these patients, a second attempt with plerixafor plus G-CSF or mobilization with plerixafor in combination with cyclophosphamide and G-CSF is recommended. Increased dose and/or twice daily administration of G-CSF can be considered.

Abstract
Autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (AHCT) is a routinely used procedure in the treatment of adult patients presenting with multiple myeloma (MM), Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and various subtypes of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in upfront and relapsed/refractory settings. Successful hematopoietic progenitor cell mobilization (HPCM) and collection are the rate limiting first steps for application of AHCT. In 2015, almost 1700 AHCT procedures have been performed for MM, HL and NHL in Turkey. Although there are recently published consensus guidelines addressing critical issues regarding autologous HPCM, there is a tremendous heterogeneity in terms of mobilization strategies of transplant centers across the world. In order to pave the way to a more standardized HPCM approach in Turkey, Turkish Society of Apheresis (TSA) assembled a working group consisting of experts in the field. Here we report the position statement of TSA regarding autologous HPCM mobilization strategies in adult patients presenting with MM and lymphoma.
