Abstract

Objective: To evaluate factors affecting peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell yield in patients undergoing large-volume leukapheresis for autologous peripheral blood stem cell collection. Methods: Data from 304 consecutive autologous peripheral blood stem cell donors mobilized with hematopoietic growth factor (usually G-CSF), associated or not with chemotherapy, at Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein between February 1999 and June 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. The objective was to obtain at least 2 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg of body weight. Pre-mobilization factors analyzed included patient's age, gender and diagnosis. Post mobilization parameters evaluated were pre-apheresis peripheral white blood cell count, immature circulating cell count, mononuclear cell count, peripheral blood CD34+ cell count, platelet count, and hemoglobin level. The effect of pre and post-mobilization factors on hematopoietic stem cell collection yield was investigated using logistic regression analysis (univariate and multivariate approaches). Results: Pre-mobilization factors correlating to poor CD34 + cell yield in univariate analysis were acute myeloid leukemia (p = 0.017) and other hematological diseases (p = 0.023). Significant post-mobilization factors included peripheral blood immature circulating cells (p = 0.001), granulocytes (p = 0.002), hemoglobin level (p = 0.016), and CD34+ cell concentration (p < 0.001) in the first harvesting day. However, according to multivariate analysis, peripheral blood CD34+ cell content (p < 0.001) was the only independent factor that significantly correlated to poor hematopoietic stem cell yield. Conclusion: In this study, peripheral blood CD34+ cell concentration was the only factor significantly correlated to yield in patients submitted to for autologous collection.Objetivo: Avaliar fatores que afetam o rendimento da coleta em pacientes submetidos à leucaférese de grande volume para obtenção de células-tronco hematopoiéticas do sangue periférico para autotransplante. Métodos: Análise retrospectiva de 304 doadores de células-tronco hematopoiéticas de sangue periférico para autotransplante submetidos à mobilização com fator de crescimento hematopoiético (geralmente G-CSF), associado ou não à quimioterapia, no Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein, de Fevereiro de 1999 a Junho de 2010. O objetivo da coleta foi obter pelo menos 2 × 106 CD34+ células/kg peso. Os fatores pré-mobilização incluíam idade, sexo e diagnóstico do paciente. Os parâmetros pós-mobilização avaliados foram contagem de leucócitos, células imaturas, células mononucleares, células CD34+, plaquetas e nível de hemoglobina no sangue periférico. O efeito desses fatores no rendimento da coleta de CTH foi investigado por meio de regressão logística (análise univariada e multivariada). Resultados: A análise univariada revelou os seguintes fatores pré-mobilização estatisticamente significantes: diagnóstico de leucemia mieloide aguda (p = 0,017) e outras doenças hematológicas (p = 0,023), células imaturas circulantes (p = 0,001), granulócitos (p = 0,002), nível de hemoglobina (p = 0,016) e contagem de células CD34+ no sangue periférico (p < 0,001) no primeiro dia de coleta. Entretanto, só a contagem de células CD34+ no sangue periférico manteve-se associada de forma significante ao rendimento ruim da coleta de células-tronco hematopoiéticas na análise multivariada. Conclusão: Neste estudo, a contagem de células CD34+ no sangue periférico foi o único fator significantemente associado ao rendimento da coleta de células-tronco hematopoiéticas com leucaférese de grande volume para autotransplante.
