Reducing severe cutaneous adverse and type B adverse drug reactions using pre-stored human leukocyte antigen genotypes.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Several type B adverse drug reactions (ADRs), especially severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs), are associated with particular human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genotypes. However, pre-stored HLA information obtained from other clinical workups has not been used to prevent ADRs. We aimed to simulate the preemptive use of pre-stored HLA information in electronic medical records to evaluate whether this information can prevent ADRs.

Methods

We analyzed the incidence and the risk of ADRs for selected HLA alleles (HLA-B*57:01, HLA-B*58:01, HLA-A*31:01, HLA-B*15:02, HLA-B*15:11, HLA-B*13:01, HLA-B*59:01, and HLA-A*32:01) and seven drugs (abacavir, allopurinol, carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, dapsone, methazolamide,
