Hematology Department, Hospital Universitario Puerta de Hierro-Majadahonda, Majadahonda, Madrid, Spain.
Background: Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) product characteristics are not well established. The aim of this study was to compare mononuclear cells (MNCs) collection using the new Amicus blue (AB) In-line ECP system to our standard Off-line ECP system using the Optia apheresis device and the MacoGenic G2 inactivation system (OM).
Study Design And Methods: We assessed the ECP products and procedure parameters, patient characteristics, and adverse events for both AB and OM systems in paired patients.
There are no good evidence-based recommendations for any systemic treatment of erosive lichen planus (ELP). Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) may be an effective therapy for recalcitrant forms of the disease. We report 3 patients with severe ELP treated with ECP.

Article Synopsis
- Polymyositis is a rare complication of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) that primarily affects muscle tissues, particularly in patients after stem cell transplants.
- A 23-year-old male with chronic myeloid leukemia experienced severe muscle weakness and respiratory issues six months post-transplant, leading to the diagnosis of GvHD polymyositis through various tests including muscle biopsies and imaging.
- The patient responded positively to treatments like corticosteroids and extracorporeal photopheresis, underscoring the need for prompt diagnosis and a collaborative approach to managing this condition.

Background: Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) has been demonstrated as an effective treatment for graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). The inline system was developed by Therakos in 1987. Recently, Fresenius Kabi implemented an integration of cell separator Amicus and a UVA photoactivation device (Phelix), realizing an inline photopheresis system.
