The standard cryoprotectant for human cellular products is dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), which is associated with hematopoietic cell infusion‐related adverse events (HCI‐AEs) in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation including peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplantation (PBSCT). DMSO is often used with hydroxyethyl starch (HES), which reduces DMSO concentration while maintaining the postthaw cell recovery. The cryoprotectant medium CP‐1 (Kyokuto Pharmaceutical Industrial) is widely used in Japan. After mixture of a product with CP‐1, DMSO and HES concentrations are 5% and 6%, respectively. However, the safety profile of CP‐1 in association with HCI‐AEs has not been investigated.
