Objective:

To provide guidance on haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) indications based on clinical practice in EBMT countries, specifically.

Key Findings:
  • HCT categorization includes autologous, syngeneic, and allogeneic transplants.
  • Recent developments in haploidentical HCT show improved outcomes with post-transplant cyclophosphamide.
  • Transplant decisions should integrate clinical evidence, local expertise, and patient preferences.
Interpretation:

The recommendations aim to harmonize HCT practices across Europe while considering evolving evidence and the impact of COVID-19.

Limitations:
  • Recommendations are not based on a formal systematic review.
  • The full impact of COVID-19 on HCT outcomes is still being assessed, and evidence is evolving.
Conclusion:

The guidance serves as a framework for HCT indications, emphasizing the need for individualized patient care and MDT involvement in decision-making.
