Autologous peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation restores hematopoietic function following marrow ablative therapy

Abstract: From ten patients with advanced malignant disease involving the bone marrow, autologous hematopoietic stem cells were collected from the peripheral blood during eight four-hour pheresis procedures and cryopreserved. No manipulations to increase the number of stem cells circulating in the blood were used during the collections. Following marrow ablative chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy, the autologous cells were thawed and infused intravenously (IV). WBCs reappeared in the circulation at a median of eight days… Show more

“…A sample was taken from products of leukapheresis at the end of the procedure, generally on alternate collection days, and assayed for CFU-GM colonies (n = 56) and the number of CD34+ cells (n = 69). A previously published agar system was used for the CFU-GM assay [5], with some modification. We added 3,000 U IL-3 instead of normal peripheral blood MNC as a source of colonystimulating factors.…”

“…5 2 10 6 CD34 cells/kg (Hohaus et al, 1993;Haas et al, 1995b;. Blood stem cells reconstitute hematopoiesis faster than bone marrow (Kessinger et al, 1988;Körbling et al, 1990;Hohaus et al, 1993;Bensinger et al, 1995), which might be related to differences in number and composition of haemopoietic progenitor cells. For instance, differences between both haemopoietic sources have been found with regard to the expression of several antigens, like Thy-1, c-kit, CD45RA as well as various adhesion molecules Pierelli et al, 1994;Möhle et al, 1995;Haas et al, 1995a).…”

“…The presence of higher numbers of primitive haemopoietic cells in a PBPC transplant may contribute to a better quality long-term reconstitution . The CFU-GM colony assay has been used to predict haemopoietic reconstitution by correlating it with numbers of mononuclear cells and CD34 þ cells (Kessinger et al, 1988;To et al, 1986To et al, , 1997Faucher et al, 1996). In some studies a strong correlation between CFU-GM colony count and CD34 þ cells was reported (Haas et al, 1995b;Millar et al, 1996), but in others no correlation was found (Serke et al, 1996).…”

“…The classification of progenitor cells infused may assist in the more precise prediction of the engraftment period than indirect methods such as colonyforming assays. Traditionally, measurements are made using mononuclear cell count, CFU-GM assay and phenotypic evaluation of CD34 þ cells (To et al, 1986;Kessinger et al, 1988;Fruehauf et al, 1995;Haas et al, 1995b;Millar et al, 1996). None of these tests is a direct measure of stem cell content.…”
