Detailed Description
Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (autoHSCT) is a standard treatment of eligible patients suffering from multiple myeloma (MM). Tandem autoHSCT allows to further improve results of the therapy. Nowadays, 99% of the procedures are performed using peripheral blood as a source of stem cells. Hence, the crucial point is to harvest adequate number of stem cells allowing hematopoietic recovery. The number of 5 × 10^6 CD34+ cells/kg is considered the optimal level, as far as double autoHSCT is concerned. There are two main mobilization strategies being used: based on G-CSF alone or in combination with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide (CY) at dose range 1.5-7 g/m2 is mainly used in MM setting). However, a proportion of patients (5-40%) fail to collect the minimum number of cells required. Novel agents, like plerixafor, CXCR4 inhibitor, may enable effective CD34+ cell harvest in "poor mobilizers". Nevertheless, the optimal first-line and cost-effective protocol for mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells has not been determined so far.
Randomized trials comparing chemomobilization with use of CY + G-CSF to G-CSF alone, which had been conducted so far, did not demonstrate clear advantage of addition of CY to growth factor. Intermediate-dose cytosine arabinoside (AraC), 1.6 g/m2 plus filgrastim, has been shown to produce very high efficacy as a first or second-line mobilization regimen in patients with lymphoid malignancies, including MM. In a retrospective comparison, this strategy was significantly more effective than CY + filgrastim. This suggest that the type of chemotherapy agent added to G-CSF may play role in mobilization efficacy and that the combination of AraC and G-CSF may be more effective than G-CSF used alone. The goal of current study is to verify this hypothesis in randomized controlled trial.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: G-CSF (filgrastim)
Patients will receive G-CSF(filgrastim) at 10 μg/kg per day (divided into two doses every 12 hours) subcutaneously for up to 7 days.
On day 5, circulating CD34+ level will be determined.
Leukapheresis will be started when the CD34+ blood level will reach at least 10/µl.
If the level will be not achieved, G-CSF administration will be continued until CD34+ level will decrease compared to the preceding day.
Leukaphereses will be performed using Spectra-Optia Apheresis System (TherumoBCT Inc, Lakewood, CO, USA) according to the manufacturers protocols for mononuclear cell harvesting, processing 2 total blood volumes.
In case of failing to harvest targeted number of stem cells (5 × 10^6 CD34+ cells/kg), next leukapheresis can be performed on following two days (maximum 3 leukaphereses) if circulating CD34+ cell level will remain as described above.

Active Comparator: Cytosine arabinoside + G-CSF (filgrastim)
Cytosine arabinoside will be administered as a 2-hour i.v.
infusion at a dose of 0.4 g/m2 twice daily on days 1 and 2 (total dose 1.6 g/m2).
G-CSF (filgrastim) 5-10 ug/kg will be started on day 5 and continued until last leukapheresis.
The number of circulating CD34+ cells will be first evaluated after neutrophil recovery from nadir.
Leukapheresis will be started when the CD34+ blood level will reach at least 10/µl.
If the level will be not achieved, G-CSF administration will be continued until CD34+ level will decrease.
Leukaphereses will be performed using Spectra-Optia Apheresis System (TherumoBCT Inc, Lakewood, CO, USA) according to the manufacturers protocols for mononuclear cell harvesting, processing 2 total blood volumes.
In case of failing to harvest targeted number of stem cells (5 × 10^6 CD34+ cells/kg), next leukapheresis can be performed on following two days (maximum 3 leukaphereses) if circulating CD34+ cell level will remain as described above.
