Platelet Count before Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Mobilization Is Associated with the Need for Plerixafor But Not with the Collection Result

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 … Show more

“…Moreover, the algorithm appears to be more robust and more strongly correlated with the basal Plt count. The Plt count before PBSC mobilization has repeatedly been identified as a risk factor for poor mobilization in the autologous transplant setting, and the definition of a baseline Plt concentration [37,38] threshold may be used as a predictive factor of successful mobilization with plerixafor [39]. No such data exist for allogeneic donors.…”

“…Pre‐harvest donor Hb independently correlated with CD34 count per kg of recipient body weight. Pre harvest Hb has been associated with successful stem cell collection in patients undergoing stem cell harvest prior to autologous stem cell transplantation but never in donors of allogeneic haemopoietic stem cells. Correction of donor anaemia is relevant to minimise post harvest anaemia and selection of donors with higher Hb may improve efficacy of stem cell collection.…”

“…Many centers collect up to 3 adequate PBSC grafts for transplantation-eligible patients with MM in first-line therapy. This stem cell graft may be valuable even after many years, given that a mobilization approach in case of relapse can be cumbersome [14]. As a matter of fact, the use of HD-CHT and ABSCT in cases of relapse may decline in the coming years with the advent of novel therapies for MM, including CAR-T cells and daratumumab.…”
