Genetic variants of genes involved in thiopurine metabolism pathway are associated with 6-mercaptopurine toxicity in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients from Ethiopia
Introduction: Genetic variation in the thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) gene by and large predicts variability in 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) related toxicities. However, some individuals without genetic variants in TPMT still develop toxicity that necessitates 6-MP dose reduction or interruption....
