Evaluation of the Spectra Optia® Apheresis System Mononuclear Cell (MNC) Collection Procedure in Healthy Blood Donors

Completed

Conditions: Leukapheresis

Interventions: Device: Mononuclear cell collection.

Registration Number: NCT01277549

Lead Sponsor: Terumo BCT

Brief Summary: The purpose of this protocol is to characterize the performance of CaridianBCT's Spectra Optia Apheresis System, when used to collect mononuclear cells (MNCs) and cluster of differentiation 34 (CD34) positive cells from healthy nonmobilized blood donors and healthy G-CSF (granulocyte colony stimulating factor) mobilized blood donors, respectively.

Study & Design

Study Type: OBSERVATIONAL

Study Design: Not specified

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Non-mobilized donors	Mononuclear cell collection.	In this arm the collection efficiency of mononuclear cells from non-mobilized donors will be studied.
G-CSF mobilized donors	Mononuclear cell collection.	In this arm the collection efficiency of CD34+ cells will be studied.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Mononuclear Cell Collection Efficiency	One day	The collection efficiency for a given cell type is defined as the percent of processed cells of that cell type that are in fact collected.
CD34+ Cell Collection Efficiency	one day	The collection efficiency for CD34+ cells is defined as the percent of processed CD34+ cells that were in fact collected.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Platelet Collection Efficiency	One Day	Platelet contamination of the cell product was measured as the platelet collection efficiency, that is, as the percent of platelets processed that were collected.
Hematocrit of MNC Product	One Day	The hematocrit of the collected product was used to quantitate RBC (red blood cell) contamination.
Granulocyte % of MNC Product	One day	Granulocyte contamination of the MNC product was quantitated as the percent of total product WBC (white blood cell) that were segmented granulocytes or bands.
Viability of the Collected MNC Product	One day	The viability of the collected white blood cells was assessed using the 7-AAD (7-amino actinomycin D) viability dye in a flow cytometric assay. Viability assessment is incorporated into the CD34 assay. This assay was only performed on G-CSF mobilized donors as nonmobilized donor have too few CD34+ cells to detect. Thus viability of the collected WBCs is reported only for the G-CSF mobilized arm.
