Summary

This trial will test if it is safe and possible to collect certain stem cells from individuals with a specific genetic condition called RUNX1-FPD.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with RUNX1 Familial Platelet Disorder, which affects blood clotting. Participants must be eligible to undergo procedures to collect stem cells from their own blood.
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety of using drugs Plerixafor and G-CSF (filgrastim or biosimilar) to mobilize stem cells in the bloodstream and then collecting these cells through a process called Apheresis.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at the injection site, bone pain, headache, nausea, vomiting, tiredness and potential complications related to Apheresis such as bleeding or infection.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Autologous CD34+ Hematopoietic Stem Cells Mobilization and ApheresisExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
On Days 1-5, participants will receive a Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), such as filgrastim, as an injection or by vein over about 5 minutes. If the study doctor thinks it is needed, participants will also receive plerixafor as an injection under the skin on Day 5 (and 6, if you have 2 days of apheresis).
