Abstract
Mobilization with chemotherapy (CT) plus hematopoietic growth factors (HGFs) is superior to mobilization with HGFs only. For stem cell mobilization after chemotherapy HGFs are typically given once or twice a day for approximately 14 days. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether mobilization of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) with DT-PACE plus pegfilgrastim was equivalent to mobilization with DT-PACE + filgrastim. Patients analyzed were enrolled in two consecutive studies 2001–12 (N=97) and 2003–41 (N=72) and included only patients who had received ≥ 2 cycles of prior therapy, but no prior transplant. Both protocols employed a single cycle of induction with DT-PACE (
