ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the variation trend of peripheral blood CD34 + cells during the hematopoietic stem cell mobilization and its influence on the collection timing and results. Methods:The clinical data of 62 patients with hematologic diseases undergoing autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell mobilization from April 2012 to March 2017 in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital were analyzed. Mobilization regimen used chemotherapy combined with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) to monitor the number of white blood cells (WBC), mononuclear cells (MNC), CD34 + cells in peripheral blood and apheresis concentrates, and the correlation with CD34 + cells was analyzed. Furthermore, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to establish the threshold to start apheresis. Results:MNC (5.66±1.11)×10 8/kg and CD34 + cell count (2.15±1.20)×10 6/kg were obtained in 62 patients who received 136 times collection in total. The peak of peripheral blood CD34 + cells count appeared at day 4-5 after the treatment of G-CSF, and then it went down. CD34 + cell count in the product was correlated with the peripheral blood CD34 + cell count collected on the day ( r = 0.879, P < 0.01), and it was also correlated with the peripheral blood WBC and MNC collected on the day as well as MNC count in the product (all P < 0.05). Furthermore, the ROC curve analysis demonstrated that peripheral blood CD34 + cells count > 23/μl was the optimal threshold for stem cell collection on the day, 85.2% of patients reaching up to the threshold could be successfully collected at one time. Conclusions:The variation trend of peripheral blood CD34 + cell count can guide the best time of stem cell collection in clinic. Peripheral blood CD34 + cell count is the reliable index to predict CD34 + cells count in the products. Peripheral blood CD34 + cells count > 23/μl could be used as the collection threshold.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the safety and efficacy of EAC [etoposide+ cytarabine+ cyclophosphamide (CTX)] mobilization scheme for mobilizing stem cells in patients with lymphoma undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT).Methods:A total of 36 patients with lymphoma who had collected peripheral blood stem cells through EAC or CTX+ granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) mobilization scheme in Cancer Hospital & Shenzhen Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College from June 2018 to March 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 16 patients used EAC mobilization (EAC group), and 20 patients used CTX (CTX group). When white blood cells≤1.0×10 9/L, G-CSF (10 μg/kg per day) was given subcutaneously in two doses. The changes of hematology indexes, the number of collected cells, adverse reactions during mobilization collection and hematopoietic reconstitution after ASCT were observed. Results:The peripheral blood stem cells were collected on 5 d (3-8 d) after EAC+ G-CSF mobilization and 7 d (4-12 d) after CTX+ G-CSF mobilization. The success rates of collection in the EAC group and CTX group were 100% (16/16) and 75.0% (15/20) respectively, the high-quality collection rates were 87.5% (14/16) and 25.0% (5/20) respectively, and there were statistically significant differences ( P=0.041; P<0.001). The median of CD34 + cells of the two groups was 13.67×10 6/kg and 3.45×10 6/kg respectively, the median of mononuclear cells was 7.16×10 8/kg and 5.09×10 8/kg respectively, the median of CD34 + cells/mononuclear cells was 1.44% and 0.67% respectively, and there were statistically significant differences ( Z=-4.219, P<0.001; Z=-2.118, P=0.034; Z=-3.104, P=0.002). In the EAC group and CTX group, the incidences of grade 3 and above granulocytopenia were 100% (16/16) and 90.0% (18/20) respectively, the incidences of grade 3 and above hemoglobin reduction were 43.8% (7/16) and 25.0% (5/20) respectively, the incidences of grade 3 and above thrombocytopenia were 87.5% (14/16) and 65.0% (13/20) respectively, and there were no statistically significant differences ( P=0.492; P=0.298; P=0.245). There were no significant differences in the incidences of infection, adverse reactions of digestive system or other adverse reactions between the two groups (all P>0.05). All patients accepted improved Bucy scheme before ASCT. The median implantation time of neutrophils and platelets was 9.0 d and 10.5 d in the EAC group, which was 12.0 d and 13.5 d in the CTX group, and there were statistically significant differences ( Z=-4.698, P<0.001; Z=-3.757, P<0.001). Conclusion:EAC mobilization scheme can significantly increase the number of hematopoietic stem cell. This scheme has a high success rate of high-quality collection and the adverse reactions are within the controllable range. It provides a high-quality mobilization scheme for hematopoietic stem cell mobilization and collection, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To analyze the characteristics of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) collection in healthy children, and explore the factors affecting collection efficiency (CE). 【Methods】 The PBMC data, involving 70 episodes of apheresis from 42 children during January 2017 and June 2020 were retrospectively analyzed All children were collected in Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University. 【Results】 Multiple linear regression analysis showed that mononuclear cells (MNC) in donor collections from healthy children were positively correlated with anticoagulant dosage, lymphocyte count and monocyte count (P<0.05), meanwhile, negatively correlated with age and platelet count. The PBMC CE was negatively correlated with age, platelet count, and processed whole blood volume (P<0.05). CD34+ cells (×107 /kg)was negatively correlated with age, meanwhile, positively correlated with numbers of collection and processed whole blood volume(r=-0.79). No statistical differences in red blood cell count, platelet count, lymphocyte count, monocyte count of healthy child donors were notable before versus after apheresis. 【Conclusion】 MNC can be collected effectively in children of different ages. The PBMC collection efficiency was related to age. Meanwhile, the higher the lymphocytes and monocytes were before apheresis, the more MNC were collected. The efficiency of MNC collection would decrease when the apheresis volume of the children exceeded their total blood volume twice. However, the absolute value of CD34+ cells in the final yields would increase.

ABSTRACT
Objective To assess the safety and efficacy of adopting different vascular access during autologous peripheral blood stem cells collection.Methods 87 patients received autologous peripheral blood stem cells collection were divided into two groups:One was peripheral vein harvesting group (43 cases),which used the 16G disposable fistula needle for autolo-gous peripheral blood stem cell collection and the other central venous harvesting group (44 cases),which used double cavity of femoral vein catheter for autologous peripheral blood stem cell collection.The observation indicators included venous ac-cesses,collection efficiency,patient tolerance,the number of mononuclear cell and CD34 positive cells.Results The numbers of mononuclear cells and CD34 positive cells in two groups were all above the standard and there was no significant differ-ence (P >0.05).However,the success of venous accesses,the efficiency smooth of collection and-patient tolerance were bet-ter in double cavity of femoral vein catheter group (P <0.05).Conclusion Harvesting the autologous peripheral blood stem cell through central venous by using double cavity of femoral vein catheter had the advantages as follows:high success rate of puncture,acquisition smoothly and reducing the suffering extent of the patients,and also it did not affect the acquisition effi-ciency and effectiveness.
ABSTRACT
In order to clarify the optimal timing for peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) collection, PBSC collection records of 323 children who were scheduled to undergo autologous stem cell transplantation from two study periods differing in the timing of PBSC collection were analyzed. In the early study period (March 1998 to August 2007, n=198), PBSC collection was initiated when the peripheral WBC count exceeded 1,000/microL during recovery from chemotherapy. Findings in this study period indicated that initiation of PBSC collection at a higher WBC count might result in a greater CD34+ cell yield. Therefore, during the late study period (September 2007 to December 2012, n=125), PBSC collection was initiated when the WBC count exceeded 4,000/microL. Results in the late study period validated our conclusion from the early study period. Collection of a higher number of CD34+ cells was associated with a faster hematologic recovery after transplant in the late study period. Initiation of PBSC collection at WBC count > 4,000/microL was an independent factor for a greater CD34+ cell yield. In conclusion, PBSC collection at a higher WBC count is associated with a greater CD34+ cell yield, and consequently a faster hematologic recovery after transplant.

ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Peripheral hematopoietic stem cell mobilization is increasing due to its advantages. For successful engraftment, obtaining sufficient stem cells is prerequisite. The number of CD34+ cells of collected blood are widely used to predict the engraftment potential. To determine the optimal point for collection of peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC), enumeration of the number of CD34+ cells in peripheral blood (PB) is known to be helpful. The purpose of this study is to analyze cutoff value of CD34+ cells in PB. METHODS: We analyzed 407 cases of autologous PBSC collection and 107 cases of allogenic PBSC collection during 2004~2009 in Pusan National University Hospital. Complete blood count, HPC fraction and number, CD34+ cells in PB and product of PBSC collection were analyzed. RESULTS: The each number of mononuclear cells and HPC in PB showed a strong correlation with CD34+ cells in PB. A strong correlation between the number of circulation CD34+ cells in PB on the day of collection and the number of collected CD34+ cells was found. The ROC curve revealed that the cutoff point having the optimal sensitivity and specificity at 8.5/uL for target CD34+ cells > or =1.0x10(6)/kg, 10.5/uL for target CD34+ cells > or =1.5x10(6)/kg and 13.5/uL for target CD34+ cells > or =2.0x10(6)/kg in this study. CONCLUSION: To obtain a sufficient yield of CD34+ cells during PBSC collection, determination of cut off point for each target CD34+ cells//kg is helpful to decide the collection.

BACKGROUND: The efficient collection of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) from donors who donate for allogeneic transplants as well as from patients undergoing autologous transplants is essential for a successful transplant. Recently, the Amicus cell separator and the associated MNC collection computer software program for PBSC collection were introduced in Korea. METHODS: Two apheresis machines (Amicus, Baxter Healthcare; and CS-3000 plus, Baxter Healthcare) were compared retrospectively. A total number of 144 procedures were performed on 14 donors and 28 patients. The pre- and post-apheresis complete blood cell (CBC) counts and the number of hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) were determined in the peripheral blood from the subjects. The CBC, HPC, CD34+ cell counts and the level of colony-forming unit-granulocyte-macrophages (CFU-GM) were measured in the PBSC product collected from both machines. RESULTS: Both machines collected a similar number of CD34+ cells from the donors and patients. On the other hand, the Amicus collected significantly more nucleated cells, MNCs, HPCs and CFU-GM in the patients with significantly less RBC contamination than those with CS-3000 plus. The decrease in the peripheral blood platelet counts in the donors and patients was more prominent after apheresis using the CS-3000 plus (117.00+/-42.75 x 10(3)/microliter, 61.22+/-43.62 x 10(3)/microliter) than Amicus (26.04+/-18.68 x 10(3)/microliter, 22.15+/-28.66 x 10(3)/microliter)(p<0.05). CONCLUSION: PBSC collection can be performed successfully using CS-3000 plus and Amicus. Amicus is superior to CS-3000 plus in avoiding apheresis-induced thrombocytopenia, and is expected to prevent unnecessary platelet transfusion.

Objective Data on the leukapheresis from 26 pediatric patients with hematologic or solid malignancies was retrospectively evaluated to screen predictive factors affecting the efficacy of peripheral blood stem cell(PBSC) collection from donors,as well as hematopoietic recovery in recipients.Methods We present our experience with 49 apheresis from 26 granulocyte-colory Stimulating factor mobilized donors and analyzed the correlations between the mobilization,the leukocyte count in the donor peripheral blood and the MNC and CD_(34)~+ cell yields in collecting products and the neutrophil and platelet recovery of recipients.Results The process of mobilization and apheresis were well tolerated by our pediatric donors.The median numbers for harvested MNCs and CD_(34)~+ cells were 4.5?10~8/kg and 1.9?10~6/kg of recipient body weight,respectively.Mobilizing dose positively affected the number of mononuclear ceus(MNC) but not CD_(34)~+ cells in the apheresis products.The CD_(34)~+ cell number in the apheresis product was influenced significantly by donor circulating MNC on the day of harvest and correlated with recipient′s engraftment after PBSC was reinfused.Conclusions The MNC yield was stable and met with the demand for autologous stem cell transplantation while the CD_(34)~+ cell number varies obviously from each donor.Since a rapid engraftment was associated with a high number of CD_(34)~+ cells collected,which was in turn predicted by the level of the pre-apheresis CD_(34)~+ cells in the peripheral blood of donors,it is necessary to monitor the donors′ CD_(34)~+ cell during mobilization to determine the optimal time for apheresis.J Appl Clin Pediatr,2006,21(3):148-150
