Purpose Children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) are generally instructed to take mercaptopurine (6-MP) in the evening and without food or dairy products. This study examines the association between 6-MP ingestion habits and 6-MP adherence, red cell thioguanine nucleotide (TGN) levels, and risk of relapse in children with TMPT wild-type genotype. Methods Participants included 441 children with ALL receiving oral 6-MP for maintenance. Adherence was monitored over 48,086 patient-days using the Medication Event Monitoring System; nonadherence was defined as adherence rate < 95%. 6-MP ingestion habits examined included: takes 6-MP with versus never with food, takes 6-MP with versus never with dairy, and takes 6-MP in the evening versus morning versus varying times. Results Median age at study was 6 years (range, 2 to 20 years); 43.8% were nonadherent. Certain 6-MP ingestion habits were associated with nonadherence (taking 6-MP with dairy [odds ratio (OR), 1.9; 95% CI, 1.3 to 2.9; P = .003] and at varying times [OR, 3.4; 95% CI, 1.8 to 6.3; P = .0001]). After adjusting for adherence and other prognosticators, there was no association between 6-MP ingestion habits and relapse risk (6-MP with food: hazard ratio [HR], 0.7; 95% CI, 0.3 to 1.9; P = .5; with dairy: HR, 0.3; 95% CI, 0.07 to 1.5; P = .2; taken in evening/night: HR, 1.1; 95% CI, 0.2 to 7.8; P = .9; at varying times: HR, 0.3; 95% CI, 0.04 to 2.7; P = .3). Among adherent patients, there was no association between red cell TGN levels and taking 6-MP with food versus without (206.1 ± 107.1 v 220.6 ± 121.6; P = .5), with dairy versus without (220.1 ± 87.8 v 216.3 ± 121.3; P =.7), or in the evening/night versus morning/midday versus varying times (218.8 ± 119.7 v 195.5 ± 82.3 v 174.8 ± 93.4; P = .6). Conclusion Commonly practiced restrictions surrounding 6-MP ingestion might not influence outcome but may hinder adherence. Future recommendations regarding 6-MP intake during maintenance therapy for childhood ALL should aim to simplify administration.
目的 通常指导急性淋巴细胞白血病(ALL)患儿在晚上服用巯嘌呤(6-MP),且不与食物或乳制品同服。本研究探讨6-MP服用习惯与6-MP依从性、红细胞硫鸟嘌呤核苷酸(TGN)水平以及TMPT野生型基因型患儿复发风险之间的关联。方法 参与者包括441例接受口服6-MP维持治疗的ALL患儿。使用药物事件监测系统在48086个患者日监测依从性;不依从定义为依从率<95%。所研究的6-MP服用习惯包括:是否与食物同服、是否与乳制品同服以及在晚上、早上还是不同时间服用。结果 研究时的中位年龄为6岁(范围2至20岁);43.8%的患儿不依从。某些6-MP服用习惯与不依从相关(与乳制品同服[比值比(OR),1.9;95%置信区间(CI),1.3至2.9;P = 0.003]以及在不同时间服用[OR,3.4;95%CI,1.8至6.3;P = 0.0001])。在调整依从性和其他预后因素后,6-MP服用习惯与复发风险之间无关联(与食物同服:风险比[HR],0.7;95%CI,0.3至1.9;P = 0.5;与乳制品同服:HR,0.3;95%CI,0.07至1.5;P = 0.2;在晚上/夜间服用:HR,1.1;95%CI,0.2至7.8;P = 0.9;在不同时间服用:HR,0.3;95%CI,0.04至2.7;P = 0.3)。在依从性好的患者中,红细胞TGN水平与是否与食物同服(206.1±107.1对220.6±121.6;P = 0.5)、是否与乳制品同服(220.1±87.8对216.3±121.3;P = 0.7)或在晚上/夜间、早上/中午还是不同时间服用(218.8±119.7对195.5±82.3对174.8±93.4;P = 0.6)均无关联。结论 围绕6-MP服用的常见限制可能不影响治疗结果,但可能会妨碍依从性。未来关于儿童ALL维持治疗期间6-MP摄入的建议应旨在简化给药方式。
