“…That is sometimes challenging in heavily pretreated patients, particularly those who previously received lenalidomide [4,35]. Moreover, some data demonstrated different mobilization of PBSCs and myeloma cells, with peak levels of myeloma cells occurring few days after CD34+ cells [36][37][38].…”

“…Overall, the patients were characterized by features that are known to affect standard stem cell mobilization negatively, including advanced age, a diagnosis of NHL, previous radiotherapy, extensive treatment with chemotherapy, treatment with lenalidomide or purine analogues, previous autoSCT, or failure of at least one previous attempt at mobilization [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. We observed that, despite these unfavorable characteristics, mobilization with plerixafor and G-CSF enabled the required number of stem cells to be collected in 67.5% of patients.…”

“…Rd which combines lenalidomide with a lower dose of dexamethasone (40 mg once weekly) is an active regimen in newly diagnosed myeloma, and has less toxicity and better OS than lenalidomide plus high dose dexamethasone [49]. Stem cell collection with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) alone may be impaired when Rd is used as induction therapy [50]. Thus patients over the age of 65 and those who have received more that four cycles of Rd) stem cells must be mobilized with either cyclophosphamide plus G-CSF or with plerixafor [51,52].…”
