In short
In the European Union, thiotepa is indicated in combination with other chemotherapy medicinal products, with or without total body irradiation, as conditioning treatment prior to allogeneic or autologous haematopoietic progenitor cell transplantation in haematological diseases in adult and paediatric patients. It is also indicated in the European Union when high dose chemotherapy with haematopoietic progenitor cell transplantation support is appropriate for treating solid tumours in adult and paediatric patients. In the United States, thiotepa is indicated to reduce the risk of graft rejection when used in conjunction with high-dose busulfan and cyclophosphamide as a preparative regimen for allogeneic hematopoietic progenitor cell transplantation for pediatric patients with class 3 beta-thalassemia. Additionally, in the United States, it is indicated for the treatment of adenocarcinoma of the breast or ovary, for controlling intracavitary effusions secondary to diffuse or localized neoplastic diseases of various serosal cavities, and for the treatment of superficial papillary carcinoma of the urinary bladder.
