We previously described a unique procedure for the collection of bone marrow cells (BMCs) using a perfusion method (PM). In cynomolgus monkeys, this method resulted in lower contamination with T cells (<10%). Here, we performed PM on a poor mobilizer lymphoma patient. We confirmed the safety of the intra-bone marrow injection of saline to collect the BMCs. The collected BMCs showed minimal contamination with T cells (<15%) and red blood cells (RBCs) (<4%) from the peripheral blood. It took a total of only 30 min to collect the BMCs. Moreover, transfusion of RBCs was unnecessary. There were no relevant post-operative side effects except for self-limiting pain at the sites of collection, and the patient was able to walk around the hospital after the operation.
