Abstract

Purging procedures are increasingly used to provide stem cell collections devoid of contaminating tumor cells. In follicle center lymphoma (FCL), most approaches eradicate polymerase chain reaction (PCR);-detectable disease in only a fraction of harvests undergoing ex vivo manipulation. In this study we evaluated whether there is a relationship between tumor burden of stem cell harvests and successful clearance of PCR-detectable disease following ex vivo manipulation.
