HLA-DQA1*05 correlates with increased risk of anti-drug antibody development and reduced response to infliximab in Chinese patients with Crohn's disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The efficacy of anti-TNF therapy in Crohn's disease (CD), such as infliximab, is often compromised by the development of anti-drug antibodies (ADAs). The genetic variation HLA-DQA1*05 has been linked to the immunogenicity of biologics, influencing ADA formation. This study investigates the correlation between HLA-DQA1*05 and ADA formation in CD patients treated with infliximab in a Chinese Han population and assesses clinical outcomes.

Methods

In this retrospective cohort study, 345 infliximab-exposed CD patients were genotyped for HLADQ A1*05A > G (rs2097432). We evaluated the risk of ADA development, loss of infliximab response, adverse events, and treatment discontinuation among variant and wild-type allele individuals.

Results

A higher percentage of patients with ADAs formation was observed in HLA-DQA1*05 G variant carriers compared with HLA-DQA1*05 wild-type carriers (58.5% vs 42.9%, P = 0.004). HLA-DQA1*05 carriage significantly increased the risk of ADAs development (adjusted hazard ratio = 1.65, 95% CI 1.18-2.30, P = 0.003) and was associated with a greater likelihood of infliximab response loss (adjusted HR = 2.55, 95% CI 1.78-3.68, P < 0.0001) and treatment discontinuation (adjusted HR = 2.21, 95% CI 1.59-3.06, P < 0.0001). Interestingly, combined therapy with immunomodulators increased the risk of response loss in HLA-DQA1*05 variant carriers.

Conclusions

HLA-DQA1*05 significantly predicts ADAs formation and impacts treatment outcomes in infliximab-treated CD patients. Pre-treatment screening for this genetic factor could therefore be instrumental in personalizing anti-TNF therapy strategies for these patients.

Project description:Multiple sclerosis (MS), a common central nervous system inflammatory disease, has a major heritable component. Susceptibility is associated with the MHC class II region, especially HLA-DRB5*0101-HLA-DRB1*1501-HLA-DQA1*0102-HLA-DQB1*0602 haplotypes(hereafter DR2), which dominate genetic contribution to MS risk. Marked linkage disequilibrium (LD) among these loci makes identification of a specific locus difficult. The once-leading candidate, HLA-DRB1*15, localizes to risk, neutral, and protective haplotypes. HLA-DRB1*15 and HLA-DQB1*0602, nearly always located together on a small ancestral chromosome segment, are strongly MS-associated. One intervening allele on this haplotype, viz. HLA-DQA1*0102, shows no primary MS association. Two Canadian cohorts (n = 830 and n = 438 trios) genotyped for HLA-DRB1, HLA-DQA1 and HLA-DQB1 alleles were tested for association using TDT. To evaluate epistasis involving HLA-DRB1*15, transmissions from HLA-DRB1*15-negative parents were stratified by the presence/absence of HLA-DRB1*15 in affected offspring. All 3 alleles contribute to MS susceptibility through novel epistatic interactions. HLA-DQA1*0102 increased disease risk when combined with HLA-DRB1*1501 in trans, thereby unambiguously implicating HLA-DQ in MS susceptibility. Three-locus haplotypes demonstrated that HLA-DRB1*1501 and HLA-DQB1*0602 each influence risk. Transmissions of rare morcellated DR2 haplotypes showed no interaction with HLA-DQA1*0102. Incomplete haplotypes bearing only HLA-DRB1*1501 or HLA-DQB1*0602 did not predispose to MS. Balanced reciprocal transmission distortion can mask epistatic allelic association. These findings implicate epistasis among HLA class II alleles in human immune responses generally, provide partial explanation for intense linkage disequilibrium in the MHC, have relevance to animal models, and demonstrate key roles for DR2-specific interactions in MS susceptibility. MHC disease associations may be more generally haplotypic or diplotypic.
