Stem Cell Mobilization and Apheresis for Life-threatening Blood Disorders
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate mobilization and collection of HSPCs in patients with bone marrow failure syndromes (BMFS) using granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (otherwise known as Filgrastim) with plerixafor to demonstrate safety and feasibility of collecting HSPCs to advance gene therapy. Primary objective: \- To characterize the safety of Filgrastim plus plerixafor in participants with bone marrow failure syndromes as determined by the incidence of adverse events (AEs). Secondary Objectives: * To characterize the feasibility of HSPC mobilization using Filgrastim plus plerixafor as determined by peripheral blood CD34+ counts. * To measure the mobilization effects of Filgrastim plus plerixafor in the peripheral blood in participants as determined by peak peripheral blood CD34+ counts. * To estimate efficacy of Filgrastim plus plerixafor for HSPC mobilization and apheresis collection in participants as determined by the yield of CD34+ cells (CD34+ cells/kg).
Description
This is a phase I, open-label, single-center study to evaluate the safety of Filgrastim plus plerixafor stem cell mobilization and apheresis in patients with BMFS. This study will include a screening period with labs, physical examination, and bone marrow evaluation at least 6 months prior to mobilization and apheresis, an intervention period that includes mobilization and apheresis of patient HSPCs, and outpatient follow-up within 7-10 days after intervention. Study staff will follow up with the participant via telephone approximately 30 days after mobilization and apheresis. A bone marrow ev…
