Background: Despite the routine clinical use of extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) for the last decades, there has been no sufficient investigation on the intra-apheresis dynamics of mononuclear cells (MNCs).
Objective: This research aims to verify the "intra-apheresis recruitment" (IAR) of MNCs, which may be particularly useful in cases with low preapheresis MNC counts.
Methods: Prospective data of ECP procedures for patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) in the context of the PHOMS study (NCT05168384) were analyzed.
