RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Carbamazepine (CBZ) is an FDA-approved anticonvulsant that is widely used to treat epilepsy, bipolar disorder, trigeminal neuralgia and chronic pain. Several studies have reported a strong association between HLA-B*15:02 and carbamazepine-induced Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) or toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). However, the HLA-B75 serotype (HLA-B*15:02, HLA-B*15:08, HLA-B*15:11 and HLA-B*15:21) has been found in patients with carbamazepine-induced SJS/TEN. METHODS: This study aimed to develop label-free electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) for the detection of HLA-B*15:02 and HLA-B*15:21 after PCR-SSP amplification. A total of 208 DNA samples were tested. The impedance was measured and compared to standard gel electrophoresis. RESULTS: The developed label-free EIS identified HLA-B*15:02 and HLA-B*15:21 alleles with 100% sensitivity (95% CI: 86.773%-100.000%) and 95.05% specificity (95% CI: 90.821%-97.714%), comparable to commercial DMSc 15:02 detection kits. CONCLUSIONS: We successfully developed a novel PCR-SSP associated with signal impedance changes to detect the HLA-B*15:02 allele and HLA-B*15:21 without downstream amplicon size analysis that is suitable for screening individuals before indication of CBZ therapy.

AIMS: Carbamazepine (CBZ) is one of the most common causative drugs of severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions (SCARs) including Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and drug reactions with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms. Although genetic polymorphisms of the human leucocyte antigens (HLA) are well recognized key elements for the susceptibility to CBZ-induced SCARs, some evidence suggest that polymorphisms of microsomal epoxide hydrolase 1 (EPHX1) may also contribute to the risk of these SCARs. This study investigated the association between the HLA and EPHX1 polymorphisms on CBZ-induced SCARs in large sample sizes and well-defined SCARs patients. METHODS: Ninety-one CBZ-induced SCARs Thai patients and 144 CBZ-tolerant patients were enrolled in the study. The genotypes of HLA-A, HLA-B and EPHX1 were determined. RESULTS: Only 2 HLA alleles including HLA-B*15:02 and HLA-A*24:07 were statistically significant association with CBZ-induced SJS/TEN. The highest risk was observed in patients with HLA-B*15:02 allele (OR = 44.33, 95% confidence interval = 20.24-97.09, corrected P-value = 6.80 × 10-29 ). Moreover, HLA-B75 serotypes were significantly associated with CBZ-induced SJS/TEN groups with an odds ratio of 81.00 (95% confidence interval = 32.39-202.56, corrected P-value = 3.84 × 10-34 ). There is no association between EPHX1 c.337 T > C polymorphism and all phenotypes of CBZ-induced SCARs. CONCLUSION: The HLA-B*15:02 allele is the strongest genetic marker for the prediction of SJS/TEN induced by CBZ in Thai population. Screening for other alleles in the HLA-B75 serotype increases sensitivity for prediction of a life-threatening SCARs caused by CBZ.

BACKGROUND: Co-trimoxazole, a sulfonamide antibiotic, is used to treat a variety of infections worldwide, and it remains a common first-line medicine for prophylaxis against Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia. However, it can cause severe cutaneous adverse reaction (SCAR), including Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms. The pathomechanism of co-trimoxazole-induced SCAR remains unclear. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to investigate the genetic predisposition of co-trimoxazole-induced SCAR. METHODS: We conducted a multicountry case-control association study that included 151 patients with of co-trimoxazole-induced SCAR and 4631 population controls from Taiwan, Thailand, and Malaysia, as well as 138 tolerant controls from Taiwan. Whole-genome sequencing was performed for the patients and population controls from Taiwan; it further validated the results from Thailand and Malaysia. RESULTS: The whole-genome sequencing study (43 case patients vs 507 controls) discovered that the single-nucleotide polymorphism rs41554616, which is located between the HLA-B and MICA loci, had the strongest association with co-trimoxazole-induced SCAR (P = 8.2 × 10-9; odds ratio [OR] = 7.7). There were weak associations of variants in co-trimoxazole-related metabolizing enzymes (CYP2D6, GSTP1, GCLC, N-acetyltransferase [NAT2], and CYP2C8). A replication study using HLA genotyping revealed that HLA-B∗13:01 was strongly associated with co-trimoxazole-induced SCAR (the combined sample comprised 91 case patients vs 2545 controls [P = 7.2 × 10-21; OR = 8.7]). A strong HLA association was also observed in the case patients from Thailand (P = 3.2 × 10-5; OR = 3.6) and Malaysia (P = .002; OR = 12.8), respectively. A meta-analysis and phenotype stratification study further indicated a strong association between HLA-B∗13:01 and co-trimoxazole-induced drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (P = 4.2 × 10-23; OR = 40.1). CONCLUSION: This study identified HLA-B∗13:01 as an important genetic factor associated with co-trimoxazole-induced SCAR in Asians.

BACKGROUND: Allopurinol is one of the most common causes of severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions (SCARs) including drug reactions with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). This study identified the risk factors associated with the development of allopurinol-induced SCARs in a Thai population. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Eighty-six allopurinol-induced SCARs (i.e. 19 DRESS and 67 SJS/TEN) and 182 allopurinol-tolerant patients were enrolled in the study. The HLA-B*58:01 allele was determined. Clinical and medicinal data were collected. RESULTS: Results from multivariate analysis showed that only the HLA-B*58:01 and female sex were identified as risk factors of allopurinol-induced SCARs in this Thai population. Patients who carried the HLA-B*58:01 allele were at a higher risk of allopurinol-induced DRESS [odds ratio (OR)=149.2, 95% confidence interval (CI)=24.0-∞, P<1.00×10]. Similar results were observed in allopurinol-induced SJS/TEN (OR=175.0, 95% CI=44.3-690.9, P=1.69×10). The risk of allopurinol-induced SCARs in women was higher than that in men (OR=4.6, 95% CI=1.4-15.6, P=1.44×10). The overall mortality rate of allopurinol-induced SCARs was 11.39% and a higher mortality rate was observed in elderly women. CONCLUSION: Among the risk factors identified, the HLA-B*58:01 allele had the greatest impact on the development of both phenotypes of allopurinol-induced SCARs in this studied Thai population. In case HLA-B*58:01 genotyping cannot be accessed, close monitoring of allopurinol usage, especially in elderly women with impaired renal function, is necessary to reduce the mortality rate of these life-threatening SCARs.

OBJECTIVES: A previous publication in Chinese leprosy patients showed that the HLA-B*13:01 allele is a strong genetic marker for dapsone-induced drug hypersensitivity reactions, however there are no data describing whether HLA-B*13:01 is a valid marker for prediction of dapsone-induced drug hypersensitivity reactions in other ethnicities or nonleprosy patients. The aim of this study is to investigate whether there is an association between HLA genotypes and dapsone-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) in Thai nonleprosy patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: HLA-B genotypes of 15 patients with dapsone-induced SCARs (11 drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms, 4 Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis), 29 control patients, and 986 subjects from the general Thai population were determined by the reverse PCR sequence-specific oligonucleotides probe. RESULTS: The HLA-B*13:01 allele was significantly associated with dapsone-induced SCARs compared with dapsone-tolerant controls (odds ratio: 54.00, 95% confidence interval: 7.96-366.16, P=0.0001) and the general population (odds ratio: 26.11, 95% confidence interval: 7.27-93.75, P=0.0001). In addition, HLA-B*13:01 associated with dapsone-induced SJS-TEN (OR: 40.50, 95% confidence interval: 2.78-591.01, P=0.0070) and DRESS (OR: 60.75, 95% confidence interval: 7.44-496.18, P=0.0001). CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated an association between HLA-B*13:01 and dapsone-induced SCARs including Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms in nonleprosy patients. Moreover, these results suggest that the HLA-B*13:01 allele may be a useful genetic marker for prediction of dapsone-induced SCARs in Thai and Han-Chinese populations.

OBJECTIVE: Clopidogrel is a commonly used antiplatelet aggregation agent. Compared with the reference clopidogrel product, most commercially available generic clopidogrel products contain different crystalline forms of clopidogrel. This study was aimed to compare the pharmacodynamics of a commonly used generic clopidogrel product in Thailand with the reference clopidogrel product under steady state conditions. METHODS: A multiple-dose, randomized 2-way crossover study was conducted in 32 healthy male Thai volunteers. The subjects were assigned to receive 75 mg once daily of the test or the reference product for 7 days with a 2-week wash out period. Blood samples were collected on days 1, 5, 6, and 7 prior to drug administration and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, and 24 hours after the last dose administered. The antiplatelet aggregation effects of clopidogrel were determined by using two different ex-vivo platelet aggregation tests including the whole blood impedance assay (WBA) and the VerifyNow® P2Y12 assay. Both pharmacodynamic parameters, the maximal antiplatelet effect (Emax) and the areas under the antiplatelet effect-time curve (AUEC0-24h), were calculated. RESULTS: Neither the mean values of Emax (90.70 ± 15.15 vs. 89.50 ± 10.71% inhibition) nor of AUEC0-24h (1,892.84 ± 657.22 vs. 1,853.58 ± 673.95% inhibition × h) under steady-state conditions obtained using the WBA method of these two clopidogrel products were significantly different. The results obtained using the VerifyNow® P2Y12 assay were consistent with those of the WBA assay. CONCLUSION: This study clearly demonstrated that ex-vivo antiplatelet aggregation effect under steady-state conditions of the test product was not significantly different from the reference product.â©.

BACKGROUND: Phenytoin is one of the most common causative drugs of several types of severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCAR) such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), and drug reactions with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS). Genetic polymorphisms of the human leukocyte antigens (HLA) and cytochromes P450 (CYP) have been proposed as key elements for the susceptibility to phenytoin-related SCAR in certain ethnicities. This study investigated the associations between the genetic polymorphisms of HLA class I and CYP2C9 and phenytoin-related SCAR in a Thai population. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty phenytoin-related SCAR (i.e. 39 SJS/TEN and 21 DRESS) and 92 phenytoin-tolerant patients were enrolled in the study. The genotypes of HLA class I and CYP2C9 were determined. RESULTS: Six HLA alleles including HLA-A*33:03, HLA-B*38:02, HLA-B*51:01, HLA-B*56:02, HLA-B*58:01, and HLA-C*14:02 were significantly associated with phenytoin-related SJS/TEN, whereas only the HLA-B*51:01 was significantly associated with phenytoin-related DRESS. The odds ratios of phenytoin-related SJS/TEN in the patients who carried one of these alleles ranged from 4- to 10-fold. The frequencies of patients who carried the HLA-B*15:02 in the SJS/TEN (12.82%) or the DRESS (9.52%) groups were not significantly different from that of the controls (14.13%). The higher risk of phenytoin-related SJS/TEN was observed in the patients with CYP2C9*3 (odds ratio=4.30, 95% confidence interval=1.41-13.09, P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Neither SJS/TEN nor DRESS caused by phenytoin was significantly associated with the HLA-B*15:02. The CYP2C9*3 variant was significantly associated with phenytoin-related SJS/TEN, but not DRESS. Certain alleles of HLA, particularly HLA-B*56:02, were significantly associated with phenytoin-related SCAR in the study population.

Studies found a strong association between HLA-B*13:01 allele and co-trimoxazole-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs). Genetic screening before initiation of co-trimoxazole may decrease the incidence of co-trimoxazole-induced SCARs. This study aims to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of HLA-B*13:01 screening before co-trimoxazole initiation in HIV-infected patients in Thailand. A combination of a decision tree model and a Markov model was used to estimate lifetime costs and outcomes of two strategies including 1) HLA-B*13:01 screening before co-trimoxazole initiation and 2) usual practice from a societal perspective. Alternative drugs are not considered because dapsone (the second-line drug) also presents a genetic risk. Input parameters were obtained from literature, government documents, and part of the TREAT Asia HIV Observational Database (TAHOD). One-way sensitivity analyses and probabilistic analyses were performed to determine robustness of the findings. HLA-B*13:01 screening resulted in 0.0061 quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) loss with an additional cost of 370 THB ($11.84). At the cost-effectiveness threshold of 160,000 THB ($5,112.85), the probability of the genetic screening strategy being cost-effective is 9.54%. This analysis demonstrated that HLA-B*13:01 allele screening before initiation of co-trimoxazole among HIV-infected patients is unlikely to be cost-effective in Thailand. Our findings will help policymakers make an evidence-informed decision making.

Introduction: Beta-lactam antibiotics are one of the most common causes of antibiotics-related severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) including Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), drug reactions with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP). Recent evidence demonstrated that the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) polymorphisms play important roles in the development of drug-related SCARs. This study aimed to extensively characterize the associations between HLA genetic polymorphisms and several phenotypes of SCARs related to beta-lactam antibiotics. Methods: Thirty-one Thai patients with beta-lactam antibiotics-related SCARs were enrolled in the study. A total of 183 unrelated native Thai subjects without any evidence of drug allergy were recruited as the control group. Genotyping of HLA class I and class II alleles was performed. Results: Six HLA alleles including HLA-A*01:01, HLA-B*50:01, HLA-C*06:02, HLA-DRB1*15:01, HLA-DQA1*03:01, and HLA-DQB1*03:02, were significantly associated with beta-lactam antibiotics-related SCARs. The highest risk of SCARs was observed in patients with the HLA-B*50:01 allele (OR = 12.6, 95% CI = 1.1-142.9, p = 0.042), followed by the HLA-DQB1*03:02 allele (OR = 5.8, 95% CI = 1.5-22.0, p = 0.012) and the HLA-C*06:02 allele (OR = 5.7, 95% CI = 1.6-19.9, p = 0.011). According to the phenotypes of SCARs related to beta-lactam antibiotics, the higher risk of SJS/TEN was observed in patients with HLA-A*03:02, HLA-B*46:02 (OR = 17.5, 95% CI = 1.5-201.6, p = 0.033), HLA-A*02:06, HLA-B*57:01 (OR = 9.5, 95% CI = 1.3-71.5, p = 0.028), HLA-DQB1*03:02 (OR = 7.5, 95% CI = 1.8-30.9, p = 0.008), or HLA-C*06:02 (OR = 4.9, 95% CI = 1.1-21.4, p = 0.008). While eight HLA alleles including HLA-A*02:05, HLA-A*02:11, HLA-B*37:01, HLA-B*38:01, HLA-B*50:01, HLA-C*06:02, HLA-C*03:09, and HLA-DRB1*15:01 were associated with AGEP, the highest risk of AGEP was observed in patients with the HLA-B*50:01 allele (OR = 60.7, 95% CI = 4.8-765.00, p = 0.005). Among the four HLA alleles associated with DRESS including HLA-C*04:06, HLA-DRB1*04:05, HLA-DRB1*11:01, and HLA-DQB1*04:01, the HLA-C*04:06 allele had the highest risk of beta-lactam antibiotics-related DRESS (OR = 60.0, 95% CI = 3.0-1202.1, p = 0.043). However, these associations did not achieve statistical significance after Bonferroni's correction. Apart from the HLA risk alleles, the HLA-A*02:07 allele appeared to be a protective factor against beta-lactam antibiotic-related SCARs (OR = 0.1, 95% CI = 0.0-0.5, p = 3.7 × 10-4, Pc = 0.012). Conclusion: This study demonstrated the candidate HLA alleles that are significantly associated with several phenotypes of beta-lactam antibiotics-related SCARs. However, whether the HLA alleles observed in this study can be used as valid genetic markers for SCARs related to beta-lactam antibiotics needs to be further explored in other ethnicities and larger cohort studies.
RESUMO
6-Mercaptopurine (6-MP) is commonly used for treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The incidence of hematotoxicity caused by this drug is quite high in Asians even using a standard low dosage regimen. The present study was aimed to elucidate the impact of thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT), a nucleoside diphosphate-linked moiety X-type motif 15 (NUDT15), inosine triphosphatase (ITPA) and ATP Binding Cassette Subfamily C Member 4 (ABCC4) polymorphisms on hematotoxicity in pediatric patients who received a standard low starting dose of 6-MP. One hundred and sixty-nine pediatric patients were enrolled and their genotypes were determined. Patients who carried NUDT15∗3 and NUDT15∗2 genotypes were at a 10-15 fold higher risk of severe neutropenia than those of the wild-type during the early months of the maintenance phase. Risk of neutropenia was not significantly increased in patients with other NUDT15 variants as well as in patients with TPMT, ITPA or ABCC4 variants. These results suggest that NUDT15 polymorphisms particularly, NUDT15∗3 and NUDT15∗2, play major roles in 6-MP-induced severe hematotoxicity even when using a standard low dosage of 6-MP and genotyping of these variants is necessary in order to obtain precise tolerance doses and avoid severe hematotoxicity in pediatric patients.

Co-trimoxazole is mainly used as a first-line drug for treatment and prophylaxis against Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia. This drug, however, has been reported as the most common causative drug for severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs). This study aimed to extensively elucidate the associations between genetic polymorphisms of HLA class I and genes involved in bioactivation and detoxification of co-trimoxazole on co-trimoxazole-induced SCARS in a large sample size and well-defined Thai SCARs patients. A total of 67 patients with co-trimoxazole-induced SCARs, consisting of 51 SJS/TEN patients and 16 DRESS patients, and 91 co-trimoxazole tolerant controls were enrolled in the study. The results clearly demonstrated that the HLA-B∗13:01 allele was significantly associated with co-trimoxazole-induced SCARs, especially with DRESS (OR = 8.44, 95% CI = 2.66-26.77, P = 2.94 × 10-4, Pc = 0.0126). Moreover, the HLA-C∗08:01 allele was significantly associated with co-trimoxazole-induced SJS/TEN in the HIV/AIDS patients with an OR of 8.51 (95% CI = 2.18-33.14, P = 8.60 × 10-4, Pc = 0.0241). None of the genes involved in the bioactivation and detoxification of co-trimoxazole investigated in this study play any major role in the development of all phenotypes of SCARs.

Genetic polymorphisms of thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) and nucleoside diphosphate-linked moiety X-type motif 15 ( NUDT15 ) genes have been proposed as key determinants of 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP)-induced myelosuppression in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). In the present study, genotypes of TPMT and NUDT15 were investigated in 178 Thai pediatric patients with ALL by the TaqMan SNP genotyping assay and DNA sequencing. The frequency of TPMT*3C was 0.034. Among NUDT15 variants, NUDT15*3 is the most common variant with the allele frequency of 0.073, whereas those of NUDT15*2 , NUDT15*5 , and NUDT15*6 variants were 0.022, 0.011, and 0.039. These data suggest that a high proportion of Thai pediatric ALL patients may be at risk of thiopurine-induced myelosuppression.
RESUMO
HLA-B*13:01-positive patients in Thailand can develop frequent co-trimoxazole hypersensitivity reactions. This study aimed to characterize drug-specific T cells from three co-trimoxazole hypersensitive patients presenting with either Stevens-Johnson syndrome or drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms. Two of the patients carried the HLA allele of interest, namely HLA-B*13:01. Sulfamethoxazole and nitroso sulfamethoxazole specific T cell clones were generated from T cell lines of co-trimoxazole hypersensitive HLA-B*13:01-positive patients. Clones were characterized for antigen specificity and cross-reactivity with structurally related compounds by measuring proliferation and cytokine release. Surface marker expression was characterized via flow cytometry. Mechanistic studies were conducted to assess pathways of T cell activation in response to antigen stimulation. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from all patients were stimulated to proliferate and secrete IFN-γ with nitroso sulfamethoxazole. All sulfamethoxazole and nitroso sulfamethoxazole specific T cell clones expressed the CD4+ phenotype and strongly secreted IL-13 as well as IFN-γ, granzyme B and IL-22. No secretion of IL-17 was observed. A number of nitroso sulfamethoxazole-specific clones cross-reacted with nitroso dapsone but not sulfamethoxazole whereas sulfamethoxazole specific clones cross-reacted with nitroso sulfamethoxazole only. The nitroso sulfamethoxazole specific clones were activated in both antigen processing-dependent and -independent manner, while sulfamethoxazole activated T cell responses via direct HLA binding. Furthermore, activation of nitroso sulfamethoxazole-specific, but not sulfamethoxazole-specific, clones was blocked with glutathione. Sulfamethoxazole and nitroso sulfamethoxazole specific T cell clones from hypersensitive patients were CD4+ which suggests that HLA-B*13:01 is not directly involved in the iatrogenic disease observed in co-trimoxazole hypersensitivity patients.

Backgound: The high incidence of thiopurine-induced myelosuppression in Asians is known to be attributable to genetic variation in thiopurine metabolism. A quantitative synthesis to summarize the genetic association with thiopurine-induced myelosuppression in Asians was therefore conducted. Methods: A Literature search was performed from January 2016 to May 2021 in the following databases: PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase and addition search included the studies from Zhang et al. Two reviewers independently extracted the following data: the author's name, year of publication, ethnicity, drugs, diseases, genetic polymorphisms, onset, type of myelosuppression and results of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used to assess the quality of the studies. The pooled odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated to evaluate the associations of NUDT15 and the risk of thiopurine-induced myelosuppression stratified by onset and type of myelosuppressive. Subgroup analysis by NUDT15 genetic polymorphisms was performed. Results: A total of 30 studies was included in this meta-analysis. The overall OR for the relationship between NUDT15 genetic polymorphisms and thiopurine-induced early onset of leukopenia and neutropenia in Asian populations were 11.43 (95% CI 7.11-18.35) and 16.35 (95% CI 10.20-26.22). Among NUDT15 polymorphisms, NUDT15*3 showed a significantly increased risk of early leukopenia (OR 15.31; 95% CI 9.65-24.27) and early neutropenia (OR 15.85; 95% CI 8.80-28.53). A significantly higher thiopurine-induced early neutropenic risk was also found for NUDT15*2 (OR 37.51; 95% CI 1.99-708.69). Whereas, NUDT15*5 and NUDT15*6 variants showed a lower risk of leukopenia. Conclusion: This study suggests that NUDT15*3 and NUDT15*2 are important genetic markers of thiopurine-induced early onset of myelotoxicity in Asians, therefore, early detection of these variants before initiating thiopurine therapy is necessary.
RESUMO
HLA-B*13:01 allele has been identified as the genetic determinant of dapsone hypersensitivity syndrome (DHS) among leprosy and non-leprosy patients in several studies. Dapsone hydroxylamine (DDS-NHOH), an active metabolite of dapsone, has been believed to be responsible for DHS. However, studies have not highlighted the importance of other genetic polymorphisms in dapsone-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCAR). We investigated the association of HLA alleles and cytochrome P450 (CYP) alleles with dapsone-induced SCAR in Thai non-leprosy patients. A prospective cohort study, 16 Thai patients of dapsone-induced SCARs (5 SJS-TEN and 11 DRESS) and 9 Taiwanese patients of dapsone-induced SCARs (2 SJS-TEN and 7 DRESS), 40 dapsone-tolerant controls, and 470 general Thai population were enrolled. HLA class I and II alleles were genotyped using polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific oligonucleotides (PCR-SSOs). CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4 genotypes were determined by the TaqMan real-time PCR assay. We performed computational analyses of dapsone and DDS-NHOH interacting with HLA-B*13:01 and HLA-B*13:02 alleles by the molecular docking approach. Among all the HLA alleles, only HLA-B*13:01 allele was found to be significantly associated with dapsone-induced SCARs (OR = 39.00, 95% CI = 7.67-198.21, p = 5.3447 × 10-7), SJS-TEN (OR = 36.00, 95% CI = 3.19-405.89, p = 2.1657 × 10-3), and DRESS (OR = 40.50, 95% CI = 6.38-257.03, p = 1.0784 × 10-5) as compared to dapsone-tolerant controls. Also, HLA-B*13:01 allele was strongly associated with dapsone-induced SCARs in Asians (OR = 36.00, 95% CI = 8.67-149.52, p = 2.8068 × 10-7) and Taiwanese (OR = 31.50, 95% CI = 4.80-206.56, p = 2.5519 × 10-3). Furthermore, dapsone and DDS-NHOH fit within the extra-deep sub pocket of the antigen-binding site of the HLA-B*13:01 allele and change the antigen-recognition site. However, there was no significant association between genetic polymorphism of cytochrome P450 (CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4) and dapsone-induced SCARs (SJS-TEN and DRESS). The results of this study support the specific genotyping of the HLA-B*13:01 allele to avoid dapsone-induced SCARs including SJS-TEN and DRESS before initiating dapsone therapy in the Asian population.

Co-trimoxazole (CTX) causes various forms of severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs). This case-control study was conducted to investigate the involvement between genetic variants of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and CYP2C9 in CTX-induced SCARs, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS)/toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) in Thai patients. Thirty cases of CTX-induced SCARs were enrolled and compared with 91 CTX-tolerant controls and 150 people from the general Thai population. Cases comprised 18 SJS/TEN and 12 DRESS patients. This study demonstrated that genetic association of CTX-induced SCARs was phenotype-specific. HLA-B*15:02 and HLA-C*08:01 alleles were significantly associated with CTX-induced SJS/TEN, whereas the HLA-B*13:01 allele was significantly associated with CTX-induced DRESS. In addition, a significant higher frequency of HLA-A*11:01-B*15:02 and HLA-B*13:01-C*03:04 haplotypes were detected in the group of CTX-induced Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) and DRESS cases, respectively. Genetic association of CTX-induced SCARs is phenotype-specific. Interestingly, these association was observed only in HIV-infected patients but not in non-HIV-infected patients.

To develop a pre-emptive genetic test that comprises multiple predisposing alleles for the prevention of phenytoin-related severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs), three sets of patients with phenytoin-SCAR and drug-tolerant controls from Taiwan, Thailand, and Japan, were enrolled for this study. In addition to cytochrome P450 (CYP)2C9*3, we found that HLA-B*13:01, HLA-B*15:02, and HLA-B*51:01 were significantly associated with phenytoin hypersensitivity with distinct phenotypic specificities. Strikingly, we showed an increase in predictive sensitivity of concurrently testing CYP2C9*3/HLA-B*13:01/HLA-B*15:02/HLA-B*51:01 from 30.5-71.9% for selecting the individuals with the risk of developing phenytoin-SCAR in Taiwanese cohorts, accompanied by a specificity of 77.7% (combined sensitivity, 64.7%; specificity, 71.9% for three Asian populations). Meta-analysis of the four combined risk alleles showed significant associations with phenytoin-SCAR in three Asian populations. In conclusion, combining the assessment of risk alleles of HLA and CYP2C9 potentiated the usefulness of predictive genetic tests to prevent phenytoin hypersensitivity in Asians.

Specific ethnic genetic backgrounds are associated with the risk of Stevens-Johnson syndrome / toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) especially in Asians. However, there have been no large cohort, multiple-country epidemiological studies of medication risk related to SJS/TEN in Asian populations. Thus, we analyzed the registration databases from multiple Asian countries who were treated during 1998-2017. A total 1,028 SJS/TEN cases were identified with the algorithm of drug causality for epidermal necrolysis. Furthermore, those medications labeled by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as carrying a risk of SJS/TEN were also compared with the common causes of SJS/TEN in Asian countries. Oxcarbazepine, sulfasalazine, COX-II inhibitors, and strontium ranelate were identified as new potential causes. In addition to sulfa drugs and beta-lactam antibiotics, quinolones were also a common cause. Only one acetaminophen-induced SJS was identified, while several medications (e.g., oseltamivir, terbinafine, isotretinoin, and sorafenib) labeled as carrying a risk of SJS/TEN by the FDA were not found to have caused any of the cases in the Asian countries investigated in this study.

Severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions (SCARs) including Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), and drug reactions with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) are potentially life-threatening cutaneous reactions caused by several drugs. Recently, a number of genes encoding for human antigen presenting proteins, HLA alleles, have been discovered as valid pharmacogenetic markers for prediction of these life-threatening reactions. This study was aimed to determine the distribution of HLA alleles including the HLA class I and class II genes in 183 unrelated individuals of a Thai population using high resolution HLA genotyping in order to obtain 2-field data (4-digit resolution) and compare the frequencies of the HLA alleles that have been proposed as markers of SCARs with other ethnics. Results revealed a high prevalence of pharmacogenetic markers of drug-induced SCARs e.g., B*13:01 for dapsone; B*15:02 for carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine; B*58:01, A*33:03 and C*03:02 for allopurinol; C*08:01, C*14:02 and DRB1*12:02 for co-trimoxazole. Whereas, low prevalence of pharmacogenetic markers of SCARs induced by abacavir, B*57:01 and phenytoin, B*56:02/B*56:04 were noticed. The allele frequencies of B*13:01, B*15:02, and B*58:01 observed in a Thai population were significantly higher than those reported in Japanese and Caucasian populations. Similar to those observed in other Southeast Asian populations, low frequencies of A*31:01 and B*57:01 alleles were noted in the study population. Based on the frequencies of HLA pharmacogenetic markers, Thai and other Southeast Asian populations may at higher risk of drug-induced SCARs compared with Caucasian population.
