PG - 63-78 LID - 10.1007/s40801-021-00276-1 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: Plerixafor was approved in Japan in 2016 for peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) mobilization in autologous stem cell transplantation (A-SCT). OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of plerixafor in Japanese patients undergoing A-SCT for various indications in real-world practice. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This post-marketing surveillance study included Japanese patients initiating PBSC mobilization with plerixafor for A-SCT. Safety assessments included the incidence of adverse events (AEs) including serious AEs, adverse drug reactions (ADRs), and laboratory variables. Effectiveness assessments were the proportion of patients with the target CD34+ cell yield (>/=2 x 10(6) cells/kg) 2 cells/muL had a target CD34+ cell yield within
