We have investigated the feasibility and efficacy of large-scale T cell depletion from granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) mobilized peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC). The method is based on the use of a CD3 antibody conjugated to magnetic microbeads and magnetic activated cell sorting (Clinimacs). A total of eight large-scale experiments were performed. In four experiments, CD3(+) T cells were depleted from PBSC obtained from volunteers mobilized with G-CSF whereas, in four experiments, T cells were depleted from PBSC from stem cell donors, in which the CD34(+) stem cells had been removed for allogeneic transplantation by positive selection prior to T cell depletion. The mean number of processed mononuclear cells (MNCs) was 3.3 X 10(10) (range 1.5 x 10(10)-5.1 X 10(10)) with a mean T cell proportion of 35.8% (range 16.7-64.0%). After T cell depletion, the percentage of contaminating T cells was 0.15% (range 0.01-1.01%) with a mean log(10) depletion of 3.4 (range 2.8-4.1). The mean recovery of CD3-negative MNCs after depletion was 76% (range 52-100%). The mean recovery of CD34(+) stem cells in the four evaluable experiments was 82% (range 75-92%). In vitro colony assays and in vivo NOD/SCID repopulation assays showed that this large-scale T cell depletion method has no negative impact on the function of the hematopoietic precursor cells. Therefore, we conclude that this T cell depletion method is a valuable tool for further graft engineering strategies involving mobilized PBSCs.
