Clinical and Economic Impact of Expanded TPMT Testing to Prevent Thiopurine‐Induced Myelosuppression in Australia: A Budget Impact Analysis

open access: yesClinical and Translational Science, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Testing thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) enzyme activity or genotype prior to thiopurine prescribing is recommended to reduce the risk of moderate to severe—and potentially fatal—myelosuppression in poor or intermediate TPMT metabolizers. Despite this, only about one‐third of individuals prescribed thiopurines in Australia currently receive

Allopurinol reverses mercaptopurine-induced hypoglycemia in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2019
Fasting hypoglycemia is a known complication of mercaptopurine (6MP) maintenance therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It is associated with high levels of the methylated metabolite 6-methyl-mercaptopurine (6MMP).
