Mobilization failure rates were <5% across all thresholds. Mobilization costs were comparable. Conclusion: We demonstrate that a liberal strategy for plerixafor administration correlates with fewer apheresis days while having similar mobilization costs. There were 26 fewer days of collection per 100 mobilization attempts with a pCD34 threshold of 40/μL compared to 15/μL at our institution. More patients completed collection in one day, and more reached an optimal collection yield.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
