A potential association between high 6-thioguanine nucleotides (6-TGN) or 6-methylmercaptopurine (6-MMP) levels and leukopenia was observed, since most studies reported higher metabolite levels in leukopenic patients (6-TGN: 204-308 (Lennard method) and 397 (Dervieux method), 6-MMP: 4020-10 450 pmol/8 x 10<sup>8</sup> RBC) compared to controls (6-TGN: 170-212 (Lennard method) and 269 (Dervieux method), 6-MMP: 1025-4550 pmol/8 x 10<sup>8</sup> RBC).

There was no significant difference of 6-TGN concentration between patients with or without leukopenia (<i>p</i> = 0.15) and no association was found in patients with <i>NUDT15 R139C</i> variants alleles (<i>p</i> = 0.62).

T1 threshold 6-TGN concentrations of 213 pmol/8 × 10<sup>8</sup> erythrocytes and 3525 pmol/8 × 10<sup>8</sup> erythrocytes for 6-MMPR were defined: patients exceeding these values were at increased leukopenia risk (odds ratio [OR] 6.2 [95% CI: 2.8-13.8] and 5.9 [95% CI: 2.7-13.3], respectively).

TPMT*3C had a specificity of 100%, but a sensitivity of 8% for predicting leucopenia.A 6-TGN level between 225 and 420 pmol/8 × 10(8) RBC could be a therapeutic window in patients receiving AZA therapy, and it could likely predict leucopenia in the initial 12 weeks of AZA therapy and a reasonable chance of successful clinical response in CD patients.

These results suggest that NUDT15 R139C-related thiopurine-induced leukocytopenia is mediated by a 6-TGN-independent mechanism.

In addition, there are factors other than increased 6-TGN levels that are involved in the onset of leukopenia.
