Plerixafor on demand in ten healthy family donors as a rescue strategy to achieve an adequate graft for stem cell transplantation

TLDR
Plerixafor is a chemokine receptor CXC Type 4–stromal‐derived factor 1 inhibitor; its HSC‐mobilizing properties are synergistic with G‐CSF in poor mobilizing patients, and the use of PL as adjuvant or alternative to G‐ CSF in healthy donors has shown a good safety profile.

Plerixafor for stem cell mobilization: the current status.

TL;DR: Plerixafor is an effective drug in patients who fail to mobilize with conventional strategy and is well tolerated with acceptable toxicity; however, it is an expensive drug.

Differences in Cellular Composition of Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Grafts from Healthy Stem Cell Donors Mobilized with Either Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) Alone or G-CSF and Plerixafor

TL;DR: The mobilization of peripheral stem cells in healthy donors with G-CSF and plerixafor led to a significant difference in cellular graft composition compared with G -CSF alone, and strikingly higher numbers of myeloid-derived suppressor cells were detected in the plerIXafor and G- CSF-mobilized graft.

How do I perform hematopoietic progenitor cell selection

TL;DR: The Miltenyi CliniMACS cell isolation system results in significantly improved CD34+ cell recoveries (50%‐100%) and consistent 3‐log CD3+ T‐cell reductions compared to previous generations of CD34 + cell selection procedures.

1994 Consensus Conference on Acute GVHD Grading.

TL;DR: Reports of GVHD prevention trials should include an accurate description of the grading system used and should report actuarial rates of grades II-IV and III-IV GV HD corrected for graft failure and potential interventions for early relapse.

Clinical manifestations of graft-versus-host disease in human recipients of marrow from HL-A-matched sibling donors.

TL;DR: The results show that despite histocompatibility matching and methotrexate therapy, GVHD remains a serious and often fatal complication of marrow transplantation.

Chronic graft-versus-host syndrome in man: A long-term clinicopathologic study of 20 seattle patients

TL;DR: Three patients had limited chronic GVHD with relatively favorable prognosis characterized by localized skin involvement and/or hepatic disease without chronic aggressive histology, but most patients, however, had extensive disease with a progressive course.
