    Abstract: To compare autologous bone marrow (BM) with peripheral-blood progenitor cells (PBPC) as hematopoietic rescue after high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT). PATIENTS AND METHODS From January 1991 until April 1993, 47 consecutive patients with relapsed or refractory germ cell tumors were randomized to either BM harvest or collection of PBPC mobilized by chemotherapy plus granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). After additional conventional-dose salvage treatment, all patients received HDCT with carboplatin 1,500 mg/m2, etoposide 2,400 mg/m2, and ifosfamide 10 g/m2 with either BM or PBPC rescue. RESULTS Forty-six patients were assessable for hematologic reconstitution, and one patient died on day +4 before engraftment. Rescue using PBPC resulted in a significantly shorter recovery time to neutrophil counts more than 500/microL (10.0 v 11.0 days, P 〈 .01), neutrophil counts more than 1,000/microL (10.0 v 12.0 days, P = .001), and platelet counts more than 20,000/microL (10.0 v 17.0 days, P 〈 .01), as well as in fewer days to transfusion independence from RBCs (8.0 v 12.0, P 〈 .05) and platelets (9.0 v 12.0, P 〈 .01) and fewer days of intravenous (IV) antibiotics (9.0 v 11.0, P 〈 .05). However, no statistical differences in transfusion requirements or in other clinical outcome variables were observed. Overall survival and event-free survival also were not different in the two study arms. CONCLUSION We conclude that the use of PBPC mobilized by chemotherapy plus G-CSF results in sustained trilineage reconstitution after HDCT, which occurs more rapidly as compared with BM. The earlier hematologic reconstitution in patients with PBPC rescue significantly reduces the time to transfusion independence.

    Abstract: To identify predictive factors for a good leukapheresis yield and to determine peripheral-blood progenitor cell (PBPC) dose requirements for rapid hematopoietic engraftment. PATIENTS AND METHODS Seventy-one patients with germ cell cancer (GCC) underwent PBPC harvest for autologous transplantation following high-dose therapy. Aphereses were performed after chemotherapy during granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) administration. RESULTS A median of two aphereses (range, two to five) resulted in 4.6 x 10(8) mononuclear cells (MNC)/kg, 15.7 x 10(4) colony-stimulating units granulocyte-macrophage (CFU-GM)/kg, and 6.0 x 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg. Peripheral blood MNC count correlated significantly with number of harvested CD34+ cells per kilogram (r = .49; P 〈 .0001) and with CFU-GM count per kilogram (r = .35; P 〈 .002). Circulating CD34+ cells from peripheral blood gave the best correlations to collected CD34+ cells per kilogram (r = .92; P 〈 .0001), as well as to harvested CFU-GM per kilogram (r = .48; P 〈 .0001). A preleukapheresis number of CD34+ cells greater than 4 x 10(4)/mL was highly predictive for a PBPC collection yield that contained more than 2.5 x 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg harvested by a single leukapheresis. After autologous transplantation, 41 patients were assessable for hematopoietic engraftment. They engrafted in a median time of 9 days (range, 7 to 18) to a WBC count greater than 1.0 x 10(9)/L, 10 days (range, 7 to 18) to an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) greater than 0.5 x 10(9)/L, and 11 days (range, 7 to 62) to a platelet (PLT) count greater than 20 x 10(9)/L. Good correlations were seen between reinfused CD34+ cell count and recovery of WBC count, ANC, and PLT count, with r values of .65 (P 〈 .001), .65 (P 〈 .001), and .45 (P 〈 .03), respectively. Patients reinfused with a PBPC dose greater than 2.5 x 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg recovered hematopoiesis in a significantly shorter time than patients who received less than 2.5 x 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg. CONCLUSION Rapid hematopoietic engraftment can be achieved by a PBPC dose of greater than 2.5 x 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg. When circulating preleukapheresis CD34+ cell counts are greater than 4 x 10(4)/mL, a PBPC autograft that contains more than 2.5 x 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg can be collected by a single leukapheresis.
