Abstract

Impact of Plerixafor (P) mobilized stem cells on immune reconstitution, such as absolute lymphocyte count at day 30 (ALC30), and on long-term outcomes of Multiple Myeloma (MM) patients undergoing autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) has not been well established. We evaluated total of 469 patients mobilized with G-CSF (G) alone, and 141 patients mobilized with G-CSF plus plerixafor (G+ P). Patients only received plerixafor if they had peripheral blood CD34+ blood count <20/μL on first planned day of collection. Primary endpoint, ALC30, was 1.3 K/μL (range, 0.1-4.5) and 1.2 K/μL (range, 0.1-5.1) for G and G + P, respectively (P =. 61). The median PFS was 2.5 years (95% CI, 2.1-3.2) and 2.8 years (95% CI, 2.0-3.3) for G and G + P, respectively (HR: 1.13; 95% CI, 0.84-1.50; P = .42). The median OS was 6.1 years (95% CI, 4.6-NR) for G group compared to 3.7 years (95% CI, 3.2-NR) for the G + P group (HR: 1.64; 95% CI, 1.12-2.40; P = .01). The median follow-up time for OS was 2.53 years (95% CI, 2.13-2.99) and 1.59 years (95% CI, 1.17-2.02) for G and G+ P group, respectively. In this large retrospective analysis of MM patients mobilized with G-CSF vs G-CSF + P, there was no significant difference in lymphocyte recovery or PFS. There was an overall survival difference in patients who were poor mobilizers and could not be mobilized with G-CSF alone.
