1. Collection of peripheral blood stem cells Dr Kacem Karima Department of clinical haematology -HAO CMH - 26/05/2012

2. High-dose chemotherapy with peripheral blood stem cell support: best option for a high risk group of patients Mobilized peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC): main source for autologous SCT. Successful engraftment relies on CD34+progenitor cell dose. Critical step: effective PBSC mobilization but 15- 30% of patients fail to mobilize.

3. Aims of this study: Analysis of mobilized patients profiles. Review of our strategies for collection of PBSC. Establish the influence of certain factors on the outcome of PBSC mobilization

4. Retrospective analysis Patients with lymphoma (HL, NHL) January 2005 - December 2011 Haematology department of Aziza Othmana Hospital

17. Proven poor mobilizer (GITMO) Peak CD34+ circulating cell count < 20/μl with less than 2 10 6 harvested CD34+ cells/kg

18. Predicted poor mobilizer (GITMO): at least one major criterion or two minor criteria: Major criteria: -Failed previous mobilisation -Prior extensive therapy -Previous therapy: fluda, melphalan Minor criteria -At least 2 prior cytotoxic lines -Refractory disease -Extensive BM involvement at mobilisation -Age > 65 years -BM cellularity < 30% at mobilisation

19. Failures: 5 in study period 5 between January and May 2012 /13 pts Predictive factors of failure Myelofibrosis1pt Refractory Disease3 pts Prior lines of CT ≥ 23 pts Nb cycles ≥ 63 pts Previous RT2 pts

20. CONCLUSION: -Peripheral CD34 count is a useful predictor for both harvest timing and successful collection of PBSC. -Identify poor mobilizers patients -G-CSF et Plerixafor : suitable combination for failure collection
