Background Polymorphisms in thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) and Nudix hydrolase-15 (NUDT15) have been implicated as the predominant cause of thiopurine induced leukopenia in the Western countries and East Asia respectively.

The risk of severe adverse events related to thiopurine therapy can be reduced by personalizing dosing based on TPMT and NUDT15 genetic polymorphisms. However, the optimal genetic testing platform has not yet been established. In this study, we report on

Genetic variants influencing the pharmacokinetics and/or pharmacodynamics of the chemotherapeutic drugs used in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) therapy often contribute to the occurrence of treatment related toxicity (TRT). In this study, we explored the association of candidate genetic variants with early hematological TRT (grade 3 ...

Impact of mercaptopurine metabolites on disease outcome in the AIEOP-BFM 2009 protocol for acute lymphoblastic leukemia [PDF]
: In the maintenance phase of AIEOP-BFM acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) 2009 protocol, mercaptopurine (MP) is given at the planned dose of 50 mg/m2/day; however, dose adjustments are routinely performed to target patients' white blood cells to the ...

Background Thiopurines are used to maintain remission in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). These drugs are metabolized into 6‐thioguanine nucleotides (6‐TGN), associated with efficacy, and 6‐methylmercaptopurine ribonucleotides (6‐MMPR), associated with adverse drug reactions. Pregnancy has been linked to a shift in thiopurine metabolism, characterized

IntroductionPolymorphisms in NUDT15 may result in differences in mercaptopurine-induced toxicity. This study aimed to identify the frequency of the NUDT15 (c.415C>T; rs116855232) polymorphism and investigate the effect of this polymorphism on ...
