Abstract
BACKGROUND Data are limited on the long-acting granulocyte-colony stimulating factors (G-CSFs) pegfilgrastim (PEG) and lipegfilgrastim (LIPEG) compared with filgrastim (FIL) regarding the mobilization efficiency of CD34+ cells, graft cellular composition, and engraftment. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS In this prospective nonrandomized study, 36 patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma received FIL, 67 received PEG, and 16 patients received LIPEG as a cytokine after chemotherapy. We analyzed the mobilization and collection of CD34+ cells, cellular composition of blood grafts, and hematologic recovery after auto-SCT according to the type of G-CSF used. RESULTS Patients in the LIPEG group had fewer apheresis sessions (1 vs. 2, p = 0.021 for FIL and p = 0.111 for PEG) as well as higher median blood CD34+ cell counts at the start of the first apheresis (LIPEG 74 × 106 /L vs. FIL 31 × 106 /L, p = 0.084 or PEG 27 × 106 /L, p = 0.021) and CD34+ yields of the first apheresis (FIL 5.1 × 106 /kg vs. FIL 2.3 × 106 /kg, p = 0.105 or PEG 1.8 × 106 /kg, p = 0.012). Also, the costs associated with G-CSF mobilization and apheresis were lower in the LIPEG group. The graft composition was comparable except for the higher infused CD34+ cell counts in the LIPEG group. The engraftment kinetics were significantly slower in the FIL group. CONCLUSION LIPEG appears to be more efficient compared with PEG after chemotherapy to mobilize CD34+ cells for auto-SCT demonstrated as fewer sessions of aphereses needed as well as 2.8-fold CD34+ cell yields on the first apheresis day. Early hematologic recovery was more rapid in the LIPEG group. Thus further studies on LIPEG in the mobilization setting are warranted.

Abstract
Filgrastim is usually combined with chemotherapy to mobilize hematopoietic progenitor cells in non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) patients. Limited information is available on the efficacy of a preemptive plerixafor (PLER) injection in poor mobilizers after chemotherapy and pegfilgrastim. In this prospective study, 72 patients with NHL received chemotherapy plus pegfilgrastim, and 25 hard-to-mobilize patients received also PLER. The usefulness and efficacy of our previously developed algorithm for PLER use in pegfilgrastim-containing mobilization regimen were evaluated as well as the graft cellular composition, hematological recovery, and outcome after autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT) according to the PLER use. A median 3.4-fold increase in blood CD34+ cell counts was achieved after the first PLER dose. The minimum collection target was achieved in the first mobilization attempt in 66/72 patients (92%) and 68 patients (94%) proceeded to auto-SCT. An algorithm for PLER use was fulfilled in 76% of the poor mobilizers. Absolute numbers of T-lymphocytes and NK cells were significantly higher in the PLER group, whereas the number of CD34+ cells collected was significantly lower. Early neutrophil engraftment was slower in the PLER group, otherwise hematological recovery was comparable within 12 months from auto-SCT. No difference was observed in survival according to the PLER use. Chemotherapy plus pegfilgrastim combined with preemptive PLER injection is an effective and convenient approach to minimize collection failures in NHL patients intended for auto-SCT. A significant effect of PLER on the graft cellular composition was observed, but no difference in outcome after auto-SCT was detected.

Abstract
Multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) and allele-specific oligonucleotide real-time quantitative PCR (ASO RQ-PCR) are the two most sensitive methods to detect minimal residual disease (MRD) in multiple myeloma (MM). We compared these methods in 129 paired post-therapy samples from 22 unselected, consecutive MM patients in complete/near complete remission. Appropriate immunophenotypic and ASO RQ-PCR-MRD targets could be detected and MRD analyses constructed for all patients. The high PCR coverage could be achieved by gradual widening of the primer sets used for clonality detection. In addition, for 13 (55%) of the patients, reverse orientation of the ASO primer and individual design of the TaqMan probe improved the sensitivity and specificity of ASO RQ-PCR analysis. A significant nonlinear correlation prevailed between MFC-MRD and PCR-MRD when both were positive. Discordance between the methods was found in 32 (35%) paired samples, which were negative by MFC-MRD, but positive by ASO RQ-PCR. The findings suggest that with the described technique, ASO RQ-PCR can be constructed for all patients with MM. ASO RQ-PCR is slightly more sensitive in MRD detection than 6-10-color flow cytometry. Owing to technical demands ASO RQ-PCR could be reserved for patients in immunophenotypic remission, especially in efficacy comparisons between different drugs and treatment modalities.

Abstract
We report on 2 intellectually normal sisters with vasopressin-resistant (nephrogenic) diabetes insipidus (NDI). The sex of the patients, the history of parental consanguinity, and the fact that both parents formed normally concentrated urine suggested that the NDI in the 2 sisters was the result of inheritance of an autosomal recessive mutation affecting renal tubular water reabsorption. The results of DNA analysis of the DXS52 locus with the use of St14 as probe, shown by Knoers et al. [1988] to be tightly linked to the NDI locus on the X-chromosome, showed that each girl inherited different Xq28 regions of the maternal X chromosomes, ruling out a diagnosis of classical X-linked NDI.
