RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to assess the performance of the new Continuous Mononuclear Cell Collection (CMNC) protocol on the Spectra Optia Apheresis System for collecting autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cells (PBSC) in adult patients with respect to collection variables, CD34+ cells harvest prediction and engraftment data. In this retrospective study, 39 CMNC procedures on 23 mobilized patients with multiple myeloma and lymphoma were analyzed. CD34+ cells and blood cells yields, collection efficiencies (CE1 and CE2), cell losses were calculated. Engraftment data of 17 autologous transplantations were collected. RESULTS: Apheresis duration was 239 min for a product volume of 220 mL. Cell product haematocrit, MNC and platelets counts were acceptable (respectively 2.4%, 65%, 834 x 109/L). Median platelet loss was 27.3%. Median CD34+ CE1 and CE2 were 64.6% and 48.5% respectively. We harvested 2.92 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg, with a CD34 dose ≥ 2 × 106 /kg for 67% of the procedures. Linear correlation between preapheresis CD34 count and the CP CD34 dose/kg allowed a prediction model with a decrease trend for high WBC precount. Procedures were well tolerated. For 17 autologous transplantations, median time to neutrophils and platelets reconstitutions were 12 and 13 days respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Spectra Optia CMNC protocol successfully collected CD34+ cells with yields permitting the harvest of sufficient enriched grafts for autologous transplantation. The CD34+ cell yield prediction was excellent. PBSC collection with CMNC protocol had advantages of high processing rate, low product volume, and acceptable contamination by platelets. J. Clin.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia B-cells (B-CLL cells) have surface immunoglobulin (Smlg). In addition, cytoplasmic immunoglobulins (Clg) have been reported in chronic lymphocytic leukemia B-cells and are useful for ascertaining monoclonality of the disease. In a study of 60 cases of chronic lymphocytic leukemia B-cells, surface immunoglobulin determinations alone demonstrated monoclonality in 38% of cases, versus 65% of cases with combined surface immunoglobulin and cytoplasmic immunoglobulins determinations. Membrane markers were studied using a panel of monoclonal antibodies. Thirty-six per cent of patients were positive for CD 10. No correlations were seen between immunologic markers and clinical stage.
