ExclusionCriteria 
Details  The patients meeting with any of the following criteria should be excluded: 1. Adult patients with ALL on maintenance therapy with olsalazine, mesalazine, or sulphasalazine, warfarin, allopurinol, thioguanine, and drugs whose primary or secondary toxicity is myelosuppression (for example trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole). 2. Patients with inherited deficiency of the TPMT enzyme. 3. Pregnancy, expected pregnancy or lactation within 6 months. 4. Patients who have a history of a known allergy/sensitivity to study drug or its excipients; 5.
