Background: Autologous stem cell transplantation is a treatment modality for several diseases. Prediction of successful mobilization may be useful to optimize hematopoietic stem cell collection.
Study Design And Methods: This was a retrospective study with data from transplantation candidates between September 2015 and December 2021 being analyzed.
Influence of laboratory procedures on postthawing cell viability and hematopoietic engraftment after autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.
Transfusion
April 2021
Background: The kinetics of hematopoietic recovery after autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) may be affected by laboratory procedures. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of characteristics of the cryopreserved units of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) on postthawing cell viability and engraftment outcomes after ASCT.
Study Design And Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study including individuals referred for ASCT.
