The COST program is a mathematical tool that fits a theoretical survival curve to the measurements of platelet recovery at the various time points32  and infers platelet survival and recovery at time 0 from the fitted curve using the multiple hit calculation model. The first time point used for the curve fitting should be taken after equilibrium.33,34  For unsensitized and B2G1Δnab-sensitized platelets which showed a plateau phase during the first 24 hours (see Figure 1), the 24-hour time point was used as the first point for the curve fit. For B2G1-sensitized platelets and platelets sensitized with a combination of 75% B2G1Δnab/25% B2G1 and 90% B2G1Δnab/10% B2G1B2G1Δnab 90%/ B2G1 10% (*B2G1Δnab75 and -90, respectively) where rapid destruction was observed without a plateau phase (see Figure 1), the 5-minute time point was used (see “Results”).

UPN 18 had a much higher HPA-1a expression level (MFI 26.3 vs mean ± SD MFI of 16.5 ± 1.6 for the rest of the volunteers), and platelet survival data were very different from other volunteers (see supplemental Figure 1). Data from this volunteer were therefore excluded from subsequent analysis.
