5 How to Cryopreserve Hematopoietic Cells? Principles Slow freezing procedures results in hyperosmolality & in membrane destabilization. Colligative agents (cryoprotectants) are used to prevent or mitigate damage caused by hyperosmolality. These materials, allow for easier movement of water & affect crystal growth & structure. Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) is a low molecular weight colligative material with high water solubility & high permeability into living cells (Lovelock & Bishop Nature 183 ( ) 1959)
6 How to Cryopreserve HSC? Principles Freezing results in various physiologic, environmental & mechanical changes. Different cells respond differently to the freezing process. A. Hubel, AABB Spring Conference 2007 N.C.Gorin, Bone Marrow & Stem Cell Processing: A Manual of Current Techniques, 1992 A slower freezing rate resulted in increased survival of bone marrow cells. CFU recovery was better with a slower freeze rate post heat of fusion.

34 Evaluation of Methodology Things to Consider / Decisions to Make: Types (sources) of HSC products DMSO only versus DMSO/HES Programmed versus non-programmed Preparatory procedures and resultant volumes Expected duration of storage Identify (select) vendors of equipment, supplies, reagents Location for the equipment, procedure Search for (identify & select) existing procedures from references, colleagues
35 Remarks There are many variations in the process of cryopreserving cells. Why fix what is not broken In many centers, the procedure was developed years ago with good clinical outcomes and they are reluctant to change Evaluation and implementation of a new or replacement method is typically costly in time and money: Equipment, Inventory systems, Validation & Qualification costs, Re-training, Retro-fitting, Monitoring
36 Things to Do: Evaluation of Methodology Break the whole process into components parts Establish expectations from the component parts Consider the expectations when purchasing the equipment, supplies, reagents Develop qualification and validation plans / procedures Evaluate the whole Develop training modules
37 Things to Do: Evaluation of Methodology Establish expectations from the component parts : Examples: Cell recovery / viability post volume reduction: >90% & > 95%, respectively Cell recovery / viability post freeze & thaw: >50% & >80%, respectively Storage temperature does not exceed -150oC with static hold time of 10 days Programmable freezer will consistent perform the specified program and the freeze curve will be printable Cryobags contents will be sterile when used as per SOP and can hold 70 ml of product and fit inside the cassettes. Post freeze, 95% of the bags will pass our drop protocol DMSO is sterile and will pass our toxicity protocol
38 Things to Do: Evaluation of Methodology Develop qualification & validation plans/procedures: Examples: SOPs for process validation, equipment qualification these should guide the user: what needs to be qualified / validated, how to proceed, what & how to document, who should perform the testing and what approvals are necessary Develop a qualification and/or validation plan for the equipment / procedures Perform the qualification/validation procedures and documentation Evaluate the whole: Examples: Put all the component parts together Develop a validation plan for the whole process.
39 Evaluation of Methodology Equipment Qualification 4 Stages: Design Qualification define functional & operational specifications decision to purchase this particular model Installation Qualification document that expected instrument was received, properly installed in the right environment Operational Qualification Show that the instrument functions according to specification in the selected environment Performance Qualification Show that the instrument performs according to specification during routine use
40 Evaluation of Methodology Equipment Qualification Documentation Form Design Qualification Description Indicate function Indicate specs to be met: Key performance characteristics Sample volume Operational range Health, safety & environmental concerns Reason for selecting that model Installation Qualification Date of Delivery Order complete? Location for instrument? Does location meet spec? Installer Date of Install If applicable, did it pass selfcheck,? Calibration/service established? Comments/Issues
41 Evaluation of Methodology Equipment Qualification Documentation Form Operational Qualification Must be completed before placed into use Prospective validation Validation plan Calibrated? SOP written? Performance Qualification Provide evidence that equipment is performing as expected over time: table of results over time retrospective validation calibration/service record Re-Qualification Must be performed for critical equipment if: Moved? Damaged / Repaired? Modified / Upgraded? Intend to use for different purpose?
42 Evaluation of Methodology Procedure Validation Prospective new procedure, equipment or whenever there is a significant change to a validated procedure. Retrospective a procedure that has been employed without formal validation. Process validation SOP directs user in the process but does not specify the methods or expectations Expectations are to be determined by the user to be outlined in the Validation Plan.
43 Procedure Validation Sample Process SOP to be validated Type of validation List of Expectations (endpoints) Methods or procedures and # of experiments Anticipated completion date Signatures / approval
44 Final Remarks If you are considering adopting a new procedure expect a lengthy evaluation and implementation process Patience and perseverance
