Abstract
The pre-collection characteristics of 170 lymphoma and 95 myeloma patients were analysed. Among 60 lymphoma patients who had less than 30 CD34 cells/mm3 the day before the first apheresis, an increase in the CD34 cell count between Day −1 and Day 1 was predictive of first stem cell mobilisation success, with a sensitivity of 100% if the Day 1 was higher than 30/mm3 (10/60 patients). Success rate of obtaining an appropriate number of stem cells in one apheresis was 120 among 170 patients.
