ABSTRACT
Objective: To determine if there is a difference in time of hematological recovery
in a group of patients with multiple myeloma, Hodgkin lymphoma or non-Hodgkin
lymphoma who received an autologous hematopoietic cell transplant (auto-HCT), according
to the number of hematopoietic cells infused.
Materials and Methods: A retrospective, descriptive and observational study, carried
out in the Hematology Service of the Dr. Jose Eleuterio Gonzalez University Hospital
of the Autonomous University of Nuevo Leon, Mexico, by analyzing the clinical records
of patients who received an auto-HCT in the period from January 2018 to December
2020. Patients older than 18 years with a diagnosis of Hodgkin lymphoma, non-Hodgkin
lymphoma, multiple myeloma or other plasma cell neoplasms were included.
Results: 72 patients were included, 36 female, with a median age of 56 years. The
median time for neutrophil recovery was 12 days in the three groups of patients, without
significant difference (p = 0.78), while for platelet recovery it was longer in the
group of patients that received ‹ 2 x 106/kg CD34+ cells (15 vs 12 days), but without
significant difference (p = 0.15).
Conclusions: Despite there are not significant differences in post-transplant hematological
recovery time, there is an association between the greater amount of CD34+
cells infused and a lower risk of febrile neutropenia and the need for hospitalization
in patients who receive an autologous hematopoietic cell transplant obtained from
peripherally blood.
