Therefore, in our experience, plerixafor made a good fraction of poor mobilizer patients eligible for mobilization and collection and able to undergo the predicted autologous stem-cells transplantation; thus, the lack of access to the use of plerixafor in this setting of patients risks jeopardizing an effective treatment, especially in case of poor prognosis.
