Positive TPMT genotype-phenotype correlation underscores importance of TPMT genotyping for personalized thiopurine dosing

This study explored TPMT genotype-phenotype correlation in a group of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients to investigate the potential of TPMT genotyping for personalized thiopurine dosing. Genotyping for G238C (TPMT*2), G460A (TPMT*3B) and A719G (TPMT*3C) loci was determined in 89 subjects...
