ABSTRACT Background and Aim Upadacitinib, a selective Janus kinase 1 inhibitor, is approved to treat moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). This post hoc subanalysis evaluated the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of upadacitinib in patients in East Asia. Methods U‐ACHIEVE (UC1; NCT02819635) and U‐ACCOMPLISH (UC2; NCT03653026) were

Thiopurine Drugs Repositioned as Tyrosinase Inhibitors
In this study, we repositioned thiopurine drugs used for the treatment of acute leukaemia as new tyrosinase inhibitors. Tyrosinase catalyses two distinct and successive oxidations in melanin biosynthesis: the conversions of tyrosine to ...

Background and Aim Oral tacrolimus is an effective treatment for refractory ulcerative colitis (UC). However, tacrolimus is underutilized because of the difficulties in transitioning to subsequent maintenance therapy and concerns about adverse events ...

Update on conventional thiopurine management in IBD
Conventional thiopurine therapy with azathioprine or 6-mercaptopurine is an important maintenance strategy in IBD. Unfortunately, many patients have to discontinue this therapy owing to adverse events or lack of efficacy.

Metabolic and genetic aspects of thiopurine metabolism [PDF]
Side-effects from drugs often have a genetic background. The described PhD research focuses on the causes of side-effects from certain anti-inflammatory drugs, the thiopurines. These are often used to treat (auto) immune diseases.

Thiopurines Induce Oxidative Stress in T-Lymphocytes: A Proteomic Approach
Thiopurines are extensively used immunosuppressants for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The polymorphism of thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) influences thiopurine metabolism and therapy outcome. We used a TPMT knockdown (kd) model

The clinical impact of thiopurine methyltransferase polymorphisms on thiopurine treatment
Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is the most common malignancy of childhood. Although current treatment results in long term survival in over 70% of cases there is evidence that as many as 50% could have been cured using a less complex regimen with a ...

NUDT15 polymorphisms alter thiopurine metabolism and hematopoietic toxicity
Widely used as anticancer and immunosuppressive agents, thiopurines have narrow therapeutic indices owing to frequent toxicities, partly explained by TPMT genetic polymorphisms.
