ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Due to the expansion of cell therapy using not only haematopoietic stem cells (HSC) but also other leukocyte subpopulations, the loss of these cells in cryopreserved apheresis products needs to be evaluated. Various factors that could negatively affect post-thaw recovery, such as leukapheresis product characteristics, storage time and cryopreservation protocols have been identified.METHODS:
The post-thaw recovery of HSCs, lymphocytes, NK cells and monocytes, as well as the factors that could adversely affect it were analysed in autologous and allogeneic leukapheresis products.RESULTS:
The lowest post-thaw recovery was observed in autologous and allogeneic CD34+ cells, with the median of 73.7% and 68.1%, respectively. In leukocyte subpopulation, the lowest post-thaw recovery was observed for CD14+ cells, both autologous and allogeneic. The highest post-thaw recovery was observed for CD3+/CD8+ cells in autologous, and for CD19+ cells in allogeneic samples. The statistically significant difference was observed between autologous and allogeneic PBSC products for CD3+ cell recovery (P = 0.031) and CD3+/CD8+ cell recovery (P = 0.009). The evaluation of factors that could adversely affect the post-thaw recovery in autologous samples showed weak negative correlations between platelet concentration and CD3+ recovery, as well as between storage time and CD3+CD8+ recovery. In allogeneic samples, a strong negative correlation was observed only between the percentage of granulocytes and CD3+, CD3+/CD8+ and CD3+/CD4+ cell recoveries.CONCLUSION:
Since various post-thaw recoveries of leukocyte subpopulations were observed, the cell therapy manufacturing centers should evaluate how their cryopreservation method and other factors affect the recovery of cell population of interest in their settings.Palavras-chave
