ABSTRACT
Graft dilution and DMSO washing before cord blood (CB) administration using an automated system may offer low incidence of adverse infusion events (AIE), ensuring reproducible cell yields. Hence, we analyzed the incidences and significance of immediate AIE, cellular yield, and engraftment after single CB infusion. One hundred and fifty-seven patients (median age, 20 years; range, 1 to 60) received a single CB unit for treatment of hematologic and nonhematologic malignancies with myeloablative conditioning after graft dilution and washing. The median total nucleated cell (TNC) doses was 3.4 × 10(7)/kg (range, 2 to 26) and the median post-thaw recovery was 84% (range, 45 to 178). The cumulative incidence of neutrophil engraftment at 50 days was 84% (95% confidence interval [CI], 83 to 93). A total of 118 immediate AIE were observed in fifty-two (33%) patients. All reported AIE were transient, graded from 1 to 2 by Common Terminology Adverse Events version 4. The most frequent toxicity was cardiovascular but without any life-threatening reaction. Infused TNC, recipient's weight, and rate of infusion per kilogram were risk factors associated with cardiovascular AIE in multivariate analysis (odds ratio [OR], 1.2 (95% CI, 1.1 to 1.4); P < .001; OR, .94 (95% CI, .9 to .97); P < .001; and OR, 1.5 (95% CI, 1.2 to 1.8); P < .001; respectively). In summary, use of an automated method for graft washing before CB administration showed low incidence of AIE without compromising cell yields and engraftment. Infused TNC dose, recipient's weight, and rate of infusion per kilogram were risk factors associated with infusion reactions.
