Associations between the <em>NUDT15 </em>R139C polymorphism and susceptibility to thiopurine-induced leukopenia in Asians: a meta-analysis

Abstract

This meta-analysis verified the strong association between the <i>NUDT15</i> R139C polymorphism and thiopurine-induced leukopenia (both early and late leukopenia) in an Asian population with IBD, ALL, and other diseases. <i>NUDT15</i> R139C genotyping should be prioritized to predict leukopenia among Asians.
