The objective of this guideline, prepared by the ALL subgroup of the Advanced Cell Therapy Sub-Committee of BSBMTCT (British Society of Blood and Marrow Transplantation), is to provide healthcare professionals with practical guidance on the preparation of children and young adults with B-acute lymphoblastic leukaemia from the point of referral to that of admission for CAR T-cell treatment. The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) nomenclature was used to evaluate the levels of evidence and to assess the strength of recommendations.
