Excerpt from the thiopurine dosing guidelines:
Thiopurines are most commonly used to treat nonmalignant conditions but are also critical anticancer agents. The approach to dosing adjustments based on TPMT status may differ depending on the clinical indication and the propensity to initiate therapy at higher vs. lower starting doses. We and others advocate testing for TPMT status prior to initiating thiopurine therapy, so that starting dosages can be adjusted accordingly.
Recommended dosing of azothioprine by TPMT phenotype
| Phenotype (Genotype) | Examples of diplotypes | Implications for azathioprine pharmacologic measures | Dosing recommendations for azothioprine | Classification of recommendations |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Homozygous wild-type or normal, high activity (two functional *1 alleles) | *1/*1 | Lower concentrations of TGN metabolites, higher methylTIMP, this is the "normal" pattern | Start with normal starting dose (e.g., 2-3 mg/kg/d) and adjust doses of azathioprine based on disease-specific guidelines. Allow 2 weeks to reach steady state after each dose adjustment. | Strong |
| Heterozygote or intermediate activity (one functional allele - *1, plus one nonfunctional allele - *2, *3A, *3B, *3C, or *4) | *1/*2, *1/*3A, *1/*3B, *1/*3C, *1/*4 | Moderate to high concentrations of TGN metabolites; low concentrations of methylTIMP | If disease treatment normally starts at the "full dose", consider starting at 30-70% of target dose (e.g., 1-1.5 mg/kg/d), and titrate based on tolerance. Allow 2-4 weeks to reach steady state after each dose adjustment. | Strong |
| Homozygous variant, mutant, low, or deficient activity (two nonfunctional alleles - *2, *3A, *3B, *3C, or *4) | *3A/*3A, *2/*3A, *3C/*3A, *3C/*4, *3C/*2, *3A/*4 | Extremely high concentrations of TGN metabolites; fatal toxicity possible without dose decrease; no methylTIMP metabolites | Consider alternative agents. If using azathioprine start with drastically reduced doses (reduce daily dose by 10-fold and dose thrice weekly instead of daily) and adjust doses of azathioprine based on degree of myelosuppression and disease-specific guidelines. Allow 4-6 weeks to reach steady state after each dose adjustment. Azathioprine is the likely cause of myelosuppression. | Strong |

Recommended dosing of mercaptopurine by TPMT phenotype
| Phenotype (Genotype) | Examples of diplotypes | Implications for mercaptopurine and azathioprine pharmacologic measures | Dosing recommendations for mercaptopurine | Classification of recommendations |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Homozygous wild-type or normal, high activity (two functional *1 alleles) | *1/*1 | Lower concentrations of TGN metabolites, higher methylTIMP, this is the "normal" pattern | Start with normal starting dose (e.g., 75 mg/m2/d or 1.5 mg/kg/d) and adjust doses of mercaptopurine (and of any other myelosuppressive therapy) without any special emphasis on mercaptopurine compared to other agents. Allow 2 weeks to reach steady state after each dose adjustment. | Strong |
| Heterozygote or intermediate activity (one functional allele - *1, plus one nonfunctional allele - *2, *3A, *3B, *3C, or *4) | *1/*2, *1/*3A, *1/*3B, *1/*3C, *1/*4 | Moderate to high concentrations of TGN metabolites; low concentrations of methylTIMP | Start with reduced doses (start at 30-70% of full dose: e.g., at 50 mg/m2/d or 0.75 mg/kg/d) and adjust doses of MP based on degree of myelosuppression and disease-specific guidelines. Allow 2-4 weeks to reach steady state after each dose adjustment. In those who require a dosage reduction based on myelosuppression, the median dose may be ~40% lower (44 mg/m2) than that tolerated in wild-type patients (75 mg/m2). In setting of myelosuppression, and depending on other therapy, emphasis should be on reducing mercaptopurine over other agents. | Strong |
| Homozygous variant, mutant, low, or deficient activity (two nonfunctional alleles - *2, *3A, *3B, *3C, or *4) | *3A/*3A, *2/*3A, *3C/*3A, *3C/*4, *3C/*2, *3A/*4 | Extremely high concentrations of TGN metabolites; fatal toxicity possible without dose decrease; no methylTIMP metabolites | For malignancy, start with drastically reduced doses (reduce daily dose by 10-fold and reduce frequency to thrice weekly instead of daily, e.g., 10 mg/m2/d given just 3 days/week) and adjust doses of MP based on degree of myelosuppression and disease-specific guidelines. Allow 4-6 weeks to reach steady state after each dose adjustment. In setting of myelosuppression, emphasis should be on reducing mercaptopurine over other agents. For nonmalignant conditions, consider alternative nonthiopurine immunosuppressant therapy. | Strong |

Information regarding PGx on FDA drug labels is derived from the FDA's Table of Pharmacogenomic Biomarkers in Drug Labels. Excerpts from the label and downloadable highlighted label PDFs are manually curated by PharmGKB
The FDA recommends, but does not require genetic or phenotypic testing for TPMT.
Excerpt from the azathioprine drug label:
"It is recommended that consideration be given to either genotype or phenotype patients for TPMT."
Patients with low or absent TPMT activity who are treated with conventional doses of azathioprine are at increased risk for severe, life-threatening myelosuppression resulting from treatment with azathioprine. Patients with intermediate TPMT activity may be at increased risk of myelotoxicity when given conventional azathioprine doses. Physicians may consider alternative therapies for patients homozygous for non-functional TPMT alleles(most commonly associated with the alleles TPMT*2, TPMT*3A, and TPMT*3C), and dose reduction is recommended for heterozygous patients with reduced TPMT activity. Approximately 10% of Caucasians and African Americans carry one non-functional TPMT allele and exhibit intermediate TPMT activity, while 0.3% are homozygous for non-functional TPMT alleles, yielding low or absent TPMT activity.

Pharmacogenomic Information in the Context of the FDA-Approved Drug Label*
Although the cisplatin drug label does not specifically mention genetic testing, the FDA highlight warnings and precautions when treating children who have certain TPMT gene variants due to an increased risk of ototoxicity.
Excerpt from the cisplatin drug label:
"Certain genetic variants in the thiopurine S-methyltransferase gene (e.g., TPMT*3B and TPMT*3C) are associated with an increased risk of ototoxicity in children administered conventional doses of cisplatin." The label refers to a study in children that found an association between TPMT gene variants and ototoxicity: [Article:19898482].
"Children who do not have one of these TPMT gene variants remain at risk for ototoxicity. All pediatric patients receiving cisplatin should have audiometric testing at baseline, prior to each subsequent dose, of drug and for several years post therapy."
SUMMARY
The FDA label highlights warnings and precautions for cisplatin treatment in children with certain TPMT gene variants, due to an increased risk of ototoxicity. The FDA states that all children undergoing cisplatin treatment have a risk of ototoxicity, and all children should undergo audiometric testing.
For the complete drug label text with sections containing pharmacogenetic information highlighted, see the Cisplatin drug label PDF.

The pharmacogenomic relationship between mercaptopurine and TPMT is well described. See the TPMT VIP and Thiopurines Pathway for more details. Recent work by the Clinical Pharmacogenomics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) has published guidelines for dosing of mercaptopurine in individuals with TPMT variants.
The FDA recommends, but does not require, genetic testing prior to initiating or reinitiating treatment with Mercaptopurine.
Excerpt from the Mercaptopurine drug label:
"Mercaptopurine is inactivated via two major pathways. One is thiol methylation, which is catalyzed by the polymorphic enzyme thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT), to form the inactive metabolite methyl-6-MP. TPMT activity is highly variable in patients because of a genetic polymorphism in the TPMT gene. For Caucasians and African Americans, approximately 0.3% (1:300) of patients have two non-functional alleles (homozygous-deficient) of the TPMT gene and have little or no detectable enzyme activity. Approximately 10% of patients have one TPMT non-functional allele (heterozygous) leading to low or intermediate TPMT activity and 90% of individuals have normal TPMT activity with two functional alleles. Homozygous-deficient patients (two non-functional alleles), if given usual doses of mercaptopurine, accumulate excessive cellular concentrations of active thioguanine nucleotides predisposing them to mercaptopurine toxicity (see WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS). Heterozygous patients with low or intermediate TPMT activity accumulate higher concentrations of active thioguanine nucleotides than people with normal TPMT activity and are more likely to experience mercaptopurine toxicity (see WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS). TPMT genotyping or phenotyping (red blood cell TPMT activity) can identify patients who are homozygous deficient or have low or intermediate TPMT activity."

Recent work by the Clinical Pharmacogenomics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) has published guidelines for dosing of thioguanine in individuals with TPMT variants.
The FDA recommends, but does not require, genetic testing prior to initiating or reinitiating treatment with Thioguanine.
Excerpt from the Thioguanine (Tabloid) drug label:
"There are individuals with an inherited deficiency of the enzyme thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) who may be unusually sensitive to the myelosuppressive effects of thioguanine and prone to developing rapid bone marrow suppression following the initiation of treatment. Substantial dosage reductions may be required to avoid the development of life-threatening bone marrow suppression in these patients. Prescribers should be aware that some laboratories offer testing for TPMT deficiency. Since bone marrow suppression may be associated with factors other than TPMT deficiency, TPMT testing may not identify all patients at risk for severe toxicity. Therefore, close monitoring of clinical and hematologic parameters is important. Bone marrow suppression could be exacerbated by coadministration with drugs that inhibit TPMT, such as olsalazine, mesalazine, or sulphasalazine."
