Multilocus Genotypes of Relevance for Drug Metabolizing Enzymes and Therapy with Thiopurines in Patients with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Multilocus genotypes have been shown to be of relevance for using pharmacogenomic principles to individualize drug therapy. As it relates to thiopurine therapy, genetic polymorphisms of TPMT are strongly associated with the pharmacokinetics and clinical effects of thiopurines (mercaptopurine and aza...
