Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2017008090
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide effective radiation-free methods for transplanting hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) to reconstruct bone marrow cells while avoiding radiation-induced toxicity.SOLUTION: Provided is an agent for use in an HSC transplantation method, comprising a purine base analog selected from 6-thioguanine, 6-mercaptopurine and azathiopurine, where the method comprises a single cycle of the steps of: (a) administering to a mammalian subject one or two doses of 2 to 10 mg/kg body weight of a purine base analog as a pre-conditioning step; (b) engrafting into the subject hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT)-deficient donor HSCs within 48 to 72 hours of the pre-conditioning step; and (c) administering to the subject about 1 to 5 mg/kg of the purine base analog every two to four days for two to eight weeks following the engrafting step, where the administration is started immediately after the engrafting step (b) and the method is performed in the absence of pre-conditioning via radiation.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5
