CAR T-cell therapy is potential treatment for:

some children and young people up to the age of 25 who have relapsed or not responded to therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL), and
some adults with diffuse large B cell lymphoma, transformed follicular lymphoma, or primary mediastinal B cell lymphoma who have relapsed or not responded to initial treatment.

People with other types of cancer may also have CAR T-cell therapy as part of a clinical trial.
