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.

Furthermore, a novel extracorporeal blood circulating 5-ALA/PDT system was developed. 5-ALA/PDT- (low or high irradiation) or anticancer drug-treated cells were intravenously administered to rats in a glioma cancer model.
