Mobilization of allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell donors with intravenous plerixafor mobilizes a unique graft

Year: 2017
Type: article
Abstract: /kg recipient weight in 1 apheresis collection to ≤10% was not reached. The failure rate was 34%. Studies evaluating the stem cell phenotype and gene expression revealed a novel plasmacytoid dendritic cell precursor preferentially mobilized by plerixafor with high interferon-α producing ability. The observed cytomegalovirus (CMV) viremia rate for patients at risk was low (15%), as were the rates of acute grade 2-4 graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) (21%). Day 100 treatment related mortality was low (3%). In conclusion, plerixafor results in rapid stem cell mobilization regardless of route of administration and resulted in novel cellular composition of the graft and favorable recipient outcomes. These trials were registered at clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT00241358 and #NCT00914849.
