    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To study the safety and effect of G-CSF mobilized donor hematopoietic stem cells infusion (GPBSCI) as the therapy for the failure of platelet recovery after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. METHODS: The clinical data of 15 patients with acute or chronic leukemia undergoing GPBSCI 16 times, 9 males and 6 females, aged 33 (14 approximately 48), were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS: The median number of mononuclear cells (MNC) from bone marrow was (4.21 +/- 1.91) x 10(8)/kg (1.50 x 10(8)/kg approximately 7.46 x 10(8)/kg). The median number of MNCs from peripheral blood was (3.27 +/- 1.40) x 10(8)/kg (1.13 x 10(8)/kg approximately 5.90 x 10(8)/kg). The median CD34+ count was (2.13 +/- 1.69) x 10(6)/kg (0.24 x 10(6)/kg approximately 5.67 x 10(6)/kg). All the patients had achieved white cell engraftment. 8 patients with primary failure of platelet recovery and 7 patients with secondary failure of platelet recovery received donor peripheral stem cells infusion. The median day of infusion was +113 days (43 approximately 384 days). The median number of infused mononuclear cells was (3.09 +/- 1.54) x 10(8)/kg (1.35 approximately 5.99) x 10(8)/kg. Only 1 patient had transfusion related GVHD. Clinical efficacy was seen in 9 patients (56.3%). The efficacy of infusion within 100 day after transplantation was 87.50%, significantly higher than that conducted 100 days after the transplantation (25.00%, P = 0.012). CONCLUSION: With minimal side effect, GPBSCI may be an effective strategy for the therapy of failure of platelet recovery.
