Popis: | A major barrier for proceeding to autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is an inability to mobilize and collect an adequate number of peripheral blood (PB) stem cells (PBSC) for the transplant graft. Plerixafor added to granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) alone, without prior chemotherapy, significantly improves the mobilization of autologous PBSC in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and multiple myeloma (MM). However, the efficacy of plerixafor and the best timing to give the drug to poorly mobilizing patients with very low PB CD34+ cell counts after salvage chemotherapy and G-CSF are not well defined. We hypothesized that PBSC mobilization and collection might be improved in heavily treated patients who mobilized very poorly after salvage chemotherapy and G-CSF by alternating the days of plerixafor administration and leukapheresis. A day of rest between plerixafor doses, while continuing G-CSF, could allow time for some replenishment of the marrow stem/progenitor cell pool before the next mobilization. A retrospective review of collection results in poorly mobilizing patients at our center was undertaken. Three cohorts were identified: those who got every-other-day plerixafor and leukapheresis, those who got sequential plerixafor and leukapheresis and those who got risk adapted plerixafor. Overall, 69% of patients with NHL and MM with PB CD34+ cell counts5/µL after salvage chemotherapy and G-CSF were ultimately able to collect adequate CD34+ cells to support ASCT using daily plerixafor and leukapheresis. On the alternating plerixafor and leukapheresis schedule, all 17 patients achieved the cumulative CD34+ cell product goals required for ASCT. This positive observation after salvage chemotherapy and G-CSF led to the incorporation at our center of an alternate-day schedule of plerixafor and leukapheresis into our real-time risk adapted strategy for poor mobilizers. © 2023 American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation.
