Abstract
Severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs), which include Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis, drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (also known as drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome), acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis, and generalized bullous fixed drug eruption, are life-threatening conditions. The pathogenesis of SCARs involves T cell receptors recognizing drug antigens presented by human leukocyte antigens, triggering the activation of distinct T cell subsets. These cells interact with keratinocytes and various immune cells, orchestrating cutaneous lesions and systemic manifestations. Genetic predisposition, impaired drug metabolism, viral reactivation or infections, and heterologous immunity influence SCAR development and clinical presentation. Specific genetic associations with distinct SCAR phenotypes have been identified, leading to the implementation of genetic screening before prescription in various countries to prevent SCARs. Whilst systemic corticosteroids and conventional immunomodulators have been the primary therapeutic agents, evolving strategies, including biologics and small molecules targeting tumour necrosis factor, different cytokines, or Janus kinase signalling pathways, signify a shift towards a precision management paradigm that considers individual clinical presentations.

The gout epidemic in French Polynesia: a modelling study of data from the Ma'i u'u epidemiological survey. Lancet Glob Health 2024; 12:e685-e696. [PMID: 38485432 DOI: 10.1016/s2214-109x(24)00012-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 03/19/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gout is the most common cause of inflammatory arthritis worldwide, particularly in Pacific regions. We aimed to establish the prevalence of gout and hyperuricaemia in French Polynesia, their associations with dietary habits, their comorbidities, the prevalence of the HLA-B*58:01 allele, and current management of the disease. METHODS The Ma'i u'u survey was epidemiological, prospective, cross-sectional, and gout-focused and included a random sample of adults from the general adult population of French Polynesia. It was conducted and data were collected between April 13 and Aug 16, 2021. Participants were randomly selected to represent the general adult population of French Polynesia on the basis of housing data collected during the 2017 territorial census. Each selected household was visited by a research nurse from the Ma'i u'u survey who collected data via guided, 1-h interviews with participants. In each household, the participant was the individual older than 18 years with the closest upcoming birthday. To estimate the frequency of HLA-B*58:01, we estimated HLA-B haplotypes on individuals who had whole-genome sequencing to approximately 5× average coverage (mid-pass sequencing). A subset of individuals who self-reported Polynesian ancestry and not European, Chinese, or other ancestry were used to estimate Polynesian-ancestry specific allele frequencies. Bivariate associations were reported for weighted participants; effect sizes were estimated through the odds ratio (OR) of the association calculated on the basis of a logistic model fitted with weighted observations. FINDINGS Among the random sample of 2000 households, 896 participants were included, 140 individuals declined, and 964 households could not be contacted. 22 participants could not be weighted due to missing data, so the final weighted analysis included 874 participants (449 [51·4%] were female and 425 [48·6%] were male) representing the 196 630 adults living in French Polynesia. The estimated prevalence of gout was 14·5% (95% CI 9·9-19·2), representing 28 561 French Polynesian adults, that is 25·5% (18·2-32·8) of male individuals and 3·5% (1·0-6·0) of female individuals. The prevalence of hyperuricaemia was estimated at 71·6% (66·7-76·6), representing 128 687 French Polynesian adults. In multivariable analysis, age (OR 1·5, 95% CI 1·2-1·8 per year), male sex (10·3, 1·8-60·7), serum urate (1·6, 1·3-2·0 per 1 mg/dL), uraturia (0·8, 0·8-0·8 per 100 mg/L), type 2 diabetes (2·1, 1·4-3·1), BMI more than 30 kg/m2 (1·1, 1·0-1·2 per unit), and percentage of visceral fat (1·7, 1·1-2·7 per 1% increase) were associated with gout. There were seven heterozygous HLA-B*58:01 carriers in the full cohort of 833 individuals (seven [0·4%] of 1666 total alleles) and two heterozygous carriers in a subset of 696 individuals of Polynesian ancestry (two [0·1%]). INTERPRETATION French Polynesia has an estimated high prevalence of gout and hyperuricaemia, with gout affecting almost 15% of adults. Territorial measures that focus on increasing access to effective urate-lowering therapies are warranted to control this major public health problem.

Abstract
Background: Oxcarbazepine is thought to be better-tolerated and less susceptible to drug-drug interactions than its predecessor, carbamazepine. Genetic testing for HLA-B*15:02 is recommended in specific populations to identify those at high risk of severe hypersensitivity reactions; however, other pharmacologic and pharmacogenetic factors that can impact drug disposition may be involved. Methods: We present a case of an 8-year-old boy treated with oxcarbazepine who developed drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) with Stevens-Johnsons syndrome overlap and was negative for HLA-B*15:02. We review the extant literature related to oxcarbazepine disposition, and potential pharmacogenetic variants in aldoketoreductase 1C (AKR1C)2-4 that may contribute to this risk. Results: Genetic variability in oxcarbazepine disposition pathways may contribute to tolerability and toxicity, including the development of hypersensitivity reactions. Conclusions: While preemptive genetic testing for HLA-B*15:02 in individuals of Asian ancestry is recommended to prevent severe hypersensitivity reactions to oxcarbazepine, oxcarbazepine concentrations and AKR1C variation may contribute to the risk of severe adverse reactions. We provide recommendations for future study to elucidate whether these individual factors are important for reducing the risk of severe adverse events.

Abstract
HLA alleles, part of the major histocompatibility complex, are strongly associated with adverse drug reactions (ADRs). This review focuses on HLA-B*15:02 and explores its association with ADRs in various ethnic populations and with different drugs, aiming to provide insights into the safe clinical use of drugs and minimize the occurrence of ADRs. Furthermore, the review explores the potential mechanisms by which HLA-B*15:02 may be associated with ADRs, aiming to gain new insights into drug modification and identification of haptens. In addition, it analyzes the frequency of the HLA-B*15:02, genotyping methods, cost-effectiveness and treatment measures for adverse reactions, thereby providing a theoretical basis for formulating clinical treatment plans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) can bind and present the processed antigenic peptide derived from the vaccine to the T cell receptor, and this capability is crucial in determining the effectivity of the vaccine to terminate virus-infected cells, activate macrophages, and induce B cells to produce antibodies. A recombinant vaccine candidate based on protein L1 HPV45 was designed and analysed whether it is recognisable by T cells through the binding of their epitopes to HLAs. METHODS The study consisted of two parts: part one was the analysis of the L1 recombinant protein binding to HLA-1 and 2 epitopes, whereas part two was the distribution analysis of HPV-linked HLA allele. HLA allele sets found at high frequency in the general population and in specific Indonesian population were listed for the binding analysis of the recombinant L1 HPV45 protein. In part one, immunoepitope servers from IEDB were used to predict the binding of the designed proteins to HLA alleles. The prediction method for MHC-I binding prediction was the NetMHCpan EL 4.1 whilst for MHC-II binding prediction was the Consensus approach. Antigenicity analysis for each peptide was conducted using VaxiJen 2.0 with the threshold 1.0 to select the highly antigenic peptides, and positions of these epitopes in the secondary and tertiary structure of the recombinant protein were also predicted. The percent population coverage of the alleles capable of binding to these epitopes worldwide was also estimated. In part two, the worldwide distribution and frequency of HPV-related HLA-1 and 2 were studied. RESULT Two highly antigenic peptides (EEYDLQFIF and KLKFWTVDLK) were recognised by high-frequency HLA-1 alleles in both, the general and Western Javanese. In addition to these two epitopes, a few more peptides are also recognised by the high-frequency Western Javanese HLA-1 alleles, which are not in Weiskopf's list of high-frequency HLA-1 alleles in the general population. Analysis of the highly antigenic epitopes binding to HLA-DRB1 alleles in general (YIKGTSANM) and Western Javanese (LRRRPTIGP) populations showed that these peptide cores associate to HLA-DRB1*04, albeit the different sub-types, due to the presence of different allele in each population group. Analysis of the epitopes and the positive binding alleles showed on average 25.65% population coverage. CONCLUSION The recombinant vaccine candidate based on protein L1 HPV45 is presumed to contain highly antigenic peptides that can bind to high-frequency HLA-1 and 2 alleles present in general and Western Javanese populations. It was expected that the protein is capable of eliciting T cell-mediated responses in both populations; however, in vitro study is needed to prove the protectiveness of the designed recombinant protein.

Abstract
Pharmacogenomics (PGx) is an integral part of precision medicine and contributes to the maximization of drug efficacy and reduction of adverse drug event risk. Accurate information on PGx allele frequencies improves the implementation of PGx. Nonetheless, curating such information from published allele data is time and resource intensive. The limited number of allelic variants in most studies leads to an underestimation of certain alleles. We applied the Pharmacogenomics Clinical Annotation Tool (PharmCAT) on an integrated 200K UK Biobank genetic dataset (N = 200,044). Based on PharmCAT results, we estimated PGx frequencies (alleles, diplotypes, phenotypes, and activity scores) for 17 pharmacogenes in five biogeographic groups: European, Central/South Asian, East Asian, Afro-Caribbean, and Sub-Saharan African. PGx frequencies were distinct for each biogeographic group. Even biogeographic groups with similar proportions of phenotypes were driven by different sets of dominant PGx alleles. PharmCAT also identified "no-function" alleles that were rare or seldom tested in certain groups by previous studies, e.g., SLCO1B1∗31 in the Afro-Caribbean (3.0%) and Sub-Saharan African (3.9%) groups. Estimated PGx frequencies are disseminated via the PharmGKB (The Pharmacogenomics Knowledgebase: www.pharmgkb.org). We demonstrate that genetic biobanks such as the UK Biobank are a robust resource for estimating PGx frequencies. Improving our understanding of PGx allele and phenotype frequencies provides guidance for future PGx studies and clinical genetic test panel design, and better serves individuals from wider biogeographic backgrounds.

Abstract
Background: Abacavir (ABC) in combination with other antiretroviral drugs, is used to treat people living with HIV (PLWH). However, it is linked to a fatal hypersensitivity reaction in susceptible individuals, and is strongly associated with the HLA-B*57:01 allele. Materials & methods: A total of 152 patients, 50 PLWH and 102 HIV-1 negative patients, were assessed for the HLA-B*57:01 allele through a sequence-specific primer PCR. Results: All PLWH tested negative for the HLA-B*57:01 allele, but two HIV-negative patients were found to have HLA-B*57, with one of them expressing the HLA-B*57:01 allele. Conclusion: Given the low prevalence of this risk allele in the population, testing for the presence of HLA-B*57:01 in PLWH may not provide significant benefit for the reported population.

Abstract
Skin diseases are hallmarks of progressive HIV-related immunosuppression, with severe noninfectious inflammatory and hypersensitivity conditions as common as opportunistic infections. Conditions such as papular pruritic eruption are AIDS defining, whereas delayed immune-mediated adverse reactions, mostly cutaneous, occur up to 100-fold more during HIV infection. The skin, constantly in contact with the external environment, has a complex immunity. A dense, tightly junctioned barrier with basal keratinocytes and epidermal Langerhans cells with antimicrobial, innate-activating, and antigen-presenting functions form the frontline. Resident dermal dendritic, mast, macrophage, and innate lymphoid cells play pivotal roles in directing and polarizing appropriate adaptive immune responses and directing effector immune cell trafficking. Sustained viral replication leads to progressive declines in CD4 T cells, whereas Langerhans and dermal dendritic cells serve as viral reservoirs and points of first viral contact in the mucosa. Cutaneous cytokine responses and diminished lymphoid populations create a crucible for exaggerated inflammation and hypersensitivity. However, beyond histopathological description, these manifestations are poorly characterized. This review details normal skin immunology, changes associated with progressive HIV-related immunosuppression, and the characteristic conditions of immune dysregulation increased with HIV. We highlight the main research gaps and several novel tissue-directed strategies to define mechanisms that will provide targeted approaches to prevention or treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic variability in the cytochrome P450 CYP2C9 constitutes an important predictor for efficacy and safety of various commonly prescribed drugs, including coumarin anticoagulants, phenytoin and multiple non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). A global map of CYP2C9 variability and its inferred functional consequences has been lacking. RESULTS Frequencies of eight functionally relevant CYP2C9 alleles (*2, *3, *5, *6, *8, *11, *13 and *14) were analyzed. In total, 108 original articles were identified that included genotype data from a total of 81,662 unrelated individuals across 70 countries and 40 unique ethnic groups. The results revealed that CYP2C9*2 was most abundant in Europe and the Middle East, whereas CYP2C9*3 was the main reason for reduced CYP2C9 activity across South Asia. Our data show extensive variation within superpopulations with up to tenfold differences between geographically adjacent populations in Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam. Translation of genetic CYP2C9 variability into functional consequences indicates that up to 40% of patients in Southern Europe and the Middle East might benefit from warfarin and phenytoin dose reductions, while 3% of patients in Southern Europe and Israel are recommended to reduce starting doses of NSAIDs. CONCLUSIONS This study provides a comprehensive map of the genetic and functional variability of CYP2C9 with high ethnogeographic resolution. The presented data can serve as a useful resource for CYP2C9 allele and phenotype frequencies and might guide the optimization of genotyping strategies, particularly for indigenous and founder populations with distinct genetic profiles.

Abstract
Severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN), and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS)/drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DIHS) cause significant morbidity and mortality and impede new drug development. HLA class I associations with SJS/TEN and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms/drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome have aided preventive efforts and provided insights into immunopathogenesis. In SJS/TEN, HLA class I-restricted oligoclonal CD8+ T-cell responses occur at the tissue level. However, specific HLA risk allele(s) and antigens driving this response have not been identified for most drugs. HLA risk alleles also have incomplete positive and negative predictive values, making truly comprehensive screening currently challenging. Although, there have been key paradigm shifts in knowledge regarding drug hypersensitivity, there are still many open and unanswered questions about SCAR immunopathogenesis, as well as genetic and environmental risk. In addition to understanding the cellular and molecular basis of SCAR at the single-cell level, identification of the MHC-restricted drug-reactive self- or viral peptides driving the hypersensitivity reaction will also be critical to advancing premarketing strategies to predict risk at an individual and drug level. This will also enable identification of biologic markers for earlier diagnosis and accurate prognosis, as well as drug causality and targeted therapeutics.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Various pharmacogenomic (PGx) variants differ widely in different ethnicities. and clinical outcomes associated with these variants may also be substantially varied. Literature was searched in different databases, i.e. PubMed, ScienceDirect, Web of Science, and PharmGKB, from inception to 30 June 2022 for this review. AREAS COVERED Certain PGx variants were distinctly varied in Asian populations compared to the other human populations, e.g. CYP2C19*2,*3,*17; CYP2C9*2,*3; CYP2D6*4,*5,*10,*41; UGT1A1*6,*28; HLA-B*15:02, HLA-B*15:21, HLA-B*58:01, and HLA-A*31:01. However, certain other variants do not vary greatly between Asian and other ethnicities, e.g. CYP3A5*3; ABCB1, and SLCO1B1*5. As evident in this review, the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) was much stronger in Asian patients taking clopidogrel and who inherited the CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles, e.g. CYP2C19*2 and*3, when compared to the western/Caucasian patients. Additionally, the risk of carbamazepine-induced severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions (SCARs) for the patients inheriting HLA-B*15:02 and HLA-B*15:21 alleles varied significantly between Asian and other ethnicities. In contrast, both Caucasian and Asian patients inheriting the SLCO1B1*5 variant possessed a similar magnitude of muscle toxicity, i.e. myopathy. EXPERT OPINION Asian countries should take measures toward expanding PGx research, as well as initiatives for the purposes of obtaining clinical benefits from this newly evolving and economically viable treatment model.

Abstract
Over the last decade, next-generation sequencing (NGS) methods have become increasingly used in various areas of human genomics. In routine clinical care, their use is already implemented in oncology to profile the mutational landscape of a tumor, as well as in rare disease diagnostics. However, its utilization in pharmacogenomics is largely lacking behind. Recent population-scale genome data has revealed that human pharmacogenes carry a plethora of rare genetic variations that are not interrogated by conventional array-based profiling methods and it is estimated that these variants could explain around 30% of the genetically encoded functional pharmacogenetic variability.To interpret the impact of such variants on drug response a multitude of computational tools have been developed, but, while there have been major advancements, it remains to be shown whether their accuracy is sufficient to improve personalized pharmacogenetic recommendations in robust trials. In addition, conventional short-read sequencing methods face difficulties in the interrogation of complex pharmacogenes and high NGS test costs require stringent evaluations of cost-effectiveness to decide about reimbursement by national healthcare programs. Here, we illustrate current challenges and discuss future directions toward the clinical implementation of NGS to inform genotype-guided decision-making.

Abstract
Genetic factors have long been recognized as important determinants of interindividual variability in drug efficacy and toxicity. However, despite the increasing number of established gene-drug associations, candidate polymorphisms can only explain a fraction of the genetically encoded functional variability in drug disposition. Advancements in genetic profiling methods now allow to analyse the landscape of human pharmacogenetic variations comprehensively, which opens new opportunities to identify novel factors that could explain the "missing heritability." Here, we provide an updated overview of the landscape of pharmacogenomic variability based on recent analyses of population-scale sequencing projects. We then summarize the current state-of-the-art how the functional consequences of variants with unknown effects can be quantitatively estimated while discussing challenges and peculiarities that are specific to pharmacogenes. In the last sections, we discuss the importance of considering ethnogeographic diversity to provide equitable benefits of pharmacogenomics and summarize current roadblocks for the implementation of sequencing-based guidance of clinical decision-making. Based on the current state of the field, we conclude that testing is likely to gradually shift from the interrogation of selected candidate polymorphisms to comprehensive sequencing, which allows to consider the full spectrum of pharmacogenomic variations for a true personalization of genomic prescribing.

Abstract
Pharmacogenomic testing can be an effective tool to enhance medication safety and efficacy. Pharmacogenomically actionable medications are widely used, and approximately 90-95% of individuals have an actionable genotype for at least one pharmacogene. For pharmacogenomic testing to have the greatest impact on medication safety and clinical care, genetic information should be made available at the time of prescribing (preemptive testing). However, the use of preemptive pharmacogenomic testing is associated with some logistical concerns, such as consistent reimbursement, processes for reporting preemptive results over an individual's lifetime, and result portability. Lessons can be learned from institutions that have implemented preemptive pharmacogenomic testing. In this review, we discuss the rationale and best practices for implementing pharmacogenomics preemptively.

Clin Transl Sci 2022; 15:1887-1905.

Abstract
Aggregated risk of carbamazepine (CBZ)-induced cutaneous adverse drug reactions (cADRs) with different HLA variants are unclear and limited in terms of the power of studies. This study aimed to assess the aggregated risk of CBZ-induced cADRs associated with carrying the following HLA variants: HLA-B*15:02, HLA-B*15:11, HLA-B*15:21, HLA-B*38:02, HLA-B*40:01, HLA-B*46:01, HLA-B*58:01, HLA-A*24:02, and HLA-A*31:01. Literature was searched in different databases following PRISMA guidelines. The outcomes were measured as odds ratio (OR) using RevMan software by a random/fixed effects model, where p < 0.05 was set as statistical significance. In total, 46 case-control studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in this analysis consisting of 1817 cases and 6614 controls. It was found that case-patients who carried the HLA-B*15:02 allele were associated with a significantly increased risk of CBZ-induced Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) compared to controls (OR 26.01; 95% CI 15.88-42.60; p < 0.00001). The aggregated risk of cADRs was slightly higher in Asian compared to Caucasian patients (Asians: OR 14.84; 95% CI 8.95-24.61; p < 0.00001; Caucasians: OR 11.65; 95% CI 1.68-80.70; p = 0.01). Further, HLA-B*15:11, HLA-B*15:21, or HLA-A*31:01 allele was also associated with significantly increased risk of CBZ-induced cADRs (HLA-B*15:11: OR 6.08; 95% CI 2.28-16.23; p = 0.0003; HLA-B*15:21: OR 5.37; 95% CI 2.02-14.28; p = 0.0008; HLA-A*31:01: OR 5.92; 95% CI 4.35-8.05; p < 0.00001). Other HLA variants were not found to have any significant associations with CBZ-induced cADRs. Strong associations between the HLA-B*15:02, HLA-B*15:11, HLA-B*15:21, or HLA-A*31:01 allele with CBZ-induced cADRs have been established in this analysis. Pharmacogenetic testing of particular HLA alleles before initiation of CBZ therapy may be beneficial to patients and may help to eradicate cADRs substantially.

Abstract
Both safety and efficacy of medical treatment can vary depending on the ethnogeographic background of the patient. One of the reasons underlying this variability is differences in pharmacogenetic polymorphisms in genes involved in drug disposition, as well as in drug targets. Knowledge and appreciation of these differences is thus essential to optimize population-stratified care. Here, we provide an extensive updated analysis of population pharmacogenomics in ten pharmacokinetic genes (CYP2D6, CYP2C19, DPYD, TPMT, NUDT15 and SLC22A1), drug targets (CFTR) and genes involved in drug hypersensitivity (HLA-A, HLA-B) or drug-induced acute hemolytic anemia (G6PD). Combined, polymorphisms in the analyzed genes affect the pharmacology, efficacy or safety of 141 different drugs and therapeutic regimens. The data reveal pronounced differences in the genetic landscape, complexity and variant frequencies between ethnogeographic groups. Reduced function alleles of CYP2D6, SLC22A1 and CFTR were most prevalent in individuals of European descent, whereas DPYD and TPMT deficiencies were most common in Sub-Saharan Africa. Oceanian populations showed the highest frequencies of CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles while their inferred CYP2D6 activity was among the highest worldwide. Frequencies of HLA-B*15:02 and HLA-B*58:01 were highest across Asia, which has important implications for the risk of severe cutaneous adverse reactions upon treatment with carbamazepine and allopurinol. G6PD deficiencies were most frequent in Africa, the Middle East and Southeast Asia with pronounced differences in variant composition. These variability data provide an important resource to inform cost-effectiveness modeling and guide population-specific genotyping strategies with the goal of optimizing the implementation of precision public health.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDMeasuring the immune response to SARS-CoV-2 enables assessment of past infection and protective immunity. SARS-CoV-2 infection induces humoral and T cell responses, but these responses vary with disease severity and individual characteristics.METHODSA T cell receptor (TCR) immunosequencing assay was conducted using small-volume blood samples from 302 individuals recovered from COVID-19. Correlations between the magnitude of the T cell response and neutralizing antibody (nAb) titers or indicators of disease severity were evaluated. Sensitivity of T cell testing was assessed and compared with serologic testing.RESULTSSARS-CoV-2-specific T cell responses were significantly correlated with nAb titers and clinical indicators of disease severity, including hospitalization, fever, and difficulty breathing. Despite modest declines in depth and breadth of T cell responses during convalescence, high sensitivity was observed until at least 6 months after infection, with overall sensitivity ~5% greater than serology tests for identifying prior SARS-CoV-2 infection. Improved performance of T cell testing was most apparent in recovered, nonhospitalized individuals sampled > 150 days after initial illness, suggesting greater sensitivity than serology at later time points and in individuals with less severe disease. T cell testing identified SARS-CoV-2 infection in 68% (55 of 81) of samples with undetectable nAb titers (<1:40) and in 37% (13 of 35) of samples classified as negative by 3 antibody assays.CONCLUSIONThese results support TCR-based testing as a scalable, reliable measure of past SARS-CoV-2 infection with clinical value beyond serology.TRIAL REGISTRATIONSpecimens were accrued under trial NCT04338360 accessible at clinicaltrials.gov.FUNDINGThis work was funded by Adaptive Biotechnologies, Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research, NIAID, Fred Hutchinson Joel Meyers Endowment, Fast Grants, and American Society for Transplantation and Cell Therapy.

Exome sequencing allows detection of relevant pharmacogenetic variants in epileptic patients. THE PHARMACOGENOMICS JOURNAL 2022; 22:258-263. [PMID: 35590072 DOI: 10.1038/s41397-022-00280-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2021] [Revised: 04/28/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2022] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
Beyond the identification of causal genetic variants in the diagnosis of Mendelian disorders, exome sequencing can detect numerous variants with potential relevance for clinical care. Clinical interventions can thus be conducted to improve future health outcomes for patients and their at-risk relatives, such as predicting late-onset genetic disorders accessible to prevention, treatment or identifying differential drug efficacy and safety. To evaluate the interest of such pharmacogenetic information, we designed an "in house" pipeline to determine the status of 122 PharmGKB (Pharmacogenomics Knowledgebase) variant-drug combinations in 31 genes. This pipeline was applied to a cohort of 90 epileptic patients who had previously an exome sequencing (ES) analysis, to determine the frequency of pharmacogenetic variants. We performed a retrospective analysis of drug plasma concentrations and treatment efficacy in patients bearing at least one relevant PharmGKB variant. For PharmGKB level 1A variants, CYP2C9 status for phenytoin prescription was the only relevant information. Nineteen patients were treated with phenytoin, among phenytoin-treated patients, none were poor metabolizers and four were intermediate metabolizers. While being treated with a standard protocol (10-23 mg/kg/30 min loading dose followed by 5 mg/kg/8 h maintenance dose), all identified intermediate metabolizers had toxic plasma concentrations (20 mg/L). In epileptic patients, pangenomic sequencing can provide information about common pharmacogenetic variants likely to be useful to guide therapeutic drug monitoring, and in the case of phenytoin, to prevent clinical toxicity caused by high plasma levels.

Abstract
Ethnic differences in pharmacogenomic (PGx) variants have been well documented in literature and could significantly impact variability in response and adverse events to therapeutics. India is a large country with diverse ethnic populations of distinct genetic architecture. India's national genome sequencing initiative (IndiGen) provides a unique opportunity to explore the landscape of PGx variants using population-scale whole genome sequences. We have analyzed the IndiGen variation dataset (N = 1029 genomes) along with global population scale databases to map the most prevalent clinically actionable and potentially deleterious PGx variants among Indians. Differential frequencies for the known and novel variants were studied and interaction of the disrupted PGx genes affecting drug responses were analyzed by performing a pathway analysis. We have highlighted significant differences in the allele frequencies of clinically actionable PGx variants in Indians when compared to the global populations. We identified 134 mostly common (allele frequency [AF] > 0.1) potentially deleterious PGx variants that could alter or inhibit the function of 102 pharmacogenes in Indians. We also estimate that on, an average, each Indian individual carried eight PGx variants (single nucleotide variants) that have a direct impact on the choice of treatment or drug dosing. We have also highlighted clinically actionable PGx variants and genes for which preemptive genotyping is most recommended for the Indian population. The study has put forward the most comprehensive PGx landscape of the Indian population from whole genomes that could enable optimized drug selection and genotype-guided prescriptions for improved therapeutic outcomes and minimizing adverse events.

Clin Transl Allergy 2022; 12:e12098. [PMID: 35070271 PMCID: PMC8760506 DOI: 10.1002/clt2.12098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2021] [Revised: 11/26/2021] [Accepted: 12/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
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, and vancomycin) using pre-stored HLA information of transplant patients based on the Pharmacogenomics Knowledge Base guidelines and experts' consensus. RESULTS Among 11,988 HLA-tested transplant patients, 4092 (34.1%) had high-risk HLA alleles, 4583 (38.2%) were prescribed risk drugs, and 580 (4.8%) experienced type B ADRs. Patients with HLA-B*58:01 had a significantly higher incidence of type B ADR and SCARs associated with allopurinol use than that of patients without HLA-B*58:01 (17.2% vs. 11.9%, odds ratio [OR] 1.53 [95% confidence interval {CI} 1.09-2.13], p = 0.001, 2.3% versus 0.3%, OR 7.13 [95% CI 2.19-22.69], p < 0.001). Higher risks of type B ADR and SCARs were observed in patients taking carbamazepine or oxcarbazepine if they had one of HLA-A*31:01, HLA-B*15:02, or HLA-B*15:11 alleles. Vancomycin and dapsone use in HLA-A*32:01 and HLA-B*13:01 carriers, respectively, showed trends toward increased risk of type B ADRs. CONCLUSION Utilization of pre-stored HLA data can prevent type B ADRs including SCARs by screening high-risk patients.

Abstract
Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) variants can be a risk factor for developing potentially fatal drug hypersensitivity reactions. Our aim was to estimate the potential impact of genotyping for the HLA risk alleles incorporated in the Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) guidelines in The Netherlands. We estimated the number of hypersensitivity reactions and associated deaths that can be avoided annually by genotyping for these HLA risk alleles. Additionally, the cost-effectiveness was estimated. Nationwide implementation of genotyping HLA risk alleles before initiating drugs with an actionable drug-gene interaction can potentially save the life of seven allopurinol initiators and two flucloxacillin initiators each year in The Netherlands. Besides these deaths, 28 cases of abacavir hypersensitivity, 24 cases of allopurinol induced SCARs, 6 cases of carbamazepine induced DRESS and 22 cases of flucloxacillin induced DILI can be prevented. Genotyping HLA-B*5701 in abacavir initiators has a number needed to genotype of 31 to prevent one case of abacavir hypersensitivity and is cost-saving. Genotyping HLA-B*5801 in allopurinol initiators has a number needed to genotype of 1149 to prevent one case of SCAR but is still cost-effective. Genotyping before initiating antiepileptic drugs or flucloxacillin is not cost-effective. Our results confirm the need for mandatory testing of HLA-B*5701 in abacavir initiators, as indicated in the drug label, and show genotyping of HLA-B*5801 in allopurinol initiators should be considered.

[PMID: 34832859 PMCID: PMC8622011 DOI: 10.3390/ph14111077] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2021] [Revised: 10/13/2021] [Accepted: 10/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) encoded by the HLA gene is an important modulator for immune responses and drug hypersensitivity reactions as well. Genetic polymorphisms of HLA vary widely at population level and are responsible for developing severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions (SCARs) such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), maculopapular exanthema (MPE). The associations of different HLA alleles with the risk of drug induced SJS/TEN, DRESS and MPE are strongly supportive for clinical considerations. Prescribing guidelines generated by different national and international working groups for translation of HLA pharmacogenetics into clinical practice are underway and functional in many countries, including Thailand. Cutting edge genomic technologies may accelerate wider adoption of HLA screening in routine clinical settings. There are great opportunities and several challenges as well for effective implementation of HLA genotyping globally in routine clinical practice for the prevention of drug induced SCARs substantially, enforcing precision medicine initiatives.

Abstract
The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system plays an essential role in the peptides antigen presentation and more regulation of immune responses. Regarding all HLA molecules' associations with various diseases and their clinical utilities in understanding drug reactions or prediction of transplantation outcome, there is a need for much more extensive HLA data generated from Asian countries. METHOD A comprehensive search was conducted in electronic databases between 1990 and 2021 to identify relevant articles to HLA frequency in the normal Iranian population. Two independent reviewers screened and selected the eligible studies. After data extraction, the meta-analysis was performed using STATA version 14. The overall frequencies and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were obtained using the random-effects model. RESULTS Among 1141 studies 78 were eligible for this study and the sample sizes varied from 14 to 15,600. The most frequent alleles of HLA class I were HLA-A*02 (22%; 95%CI: 20-24%; I2 = 88.63%), -B*35 (18%; 95%CI: 16-21%; I2 = 90.95%), -C*12 (18%; 95%CI: 13-22%; I2 = 89.51%). HLA-DQA1*01 (42%; 95%CI: 40-44%; I2 = 56.80%), -DQB1*03 (38%; 95%CI: 35-42%; I2 = 92.38%), and -DRB1*11 (24%; 95%CI: 22-26%; I2 = 90.72%) were the most frequent alleles of HLA class II in Iran. DISCUSSION Our meta-analysis results point out that the comprehensive report of HLA allele frequency in the Iranian population could be helpful as reference data for planning and managing transplantation and immune disease treatment in Iran.

Abstract
Among other tests, Barts Health NHS Trust clinical transplantation laboratory conducts two important gene-detection tests: human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-B*27 (‘B27’, associated with the diagnosis of ankylosing spondylitis) and HLA-B*57:01 (‘B57’, associated with prediction of abacavir hypersensitivity disorder). The turnaround time (TaT) from sample receipt to return of results is important to clinicians and their patients but was not monitored. Furthermore, we anticipated an imminent increase in demand from a forthcoming pathology service merger, together with long-term increases with the rise of personalised genetic medicine. In this quality improvement project, we identified current TaT performance and sources of delay. Over three plan-do-study-act (PDSA) cycles, we tested three change ideas, two involving using IT to remove manual administrative steps and alert us to samples needing progressing; both were retained. The other change involved separating out the targeted tests; we judged this not worthwhile with current demand levels, although something to be re-examined when volumes increase. During the project, we reduced mean TaT from 3.8 to 3.3 days and increased the proportion within our 5-day target from 78% to 100%. These have been sustained (at 3.4 days and 97%) for the 3 months following our PDSA cycles and illustrate that reducing variation can be as impactful as reducing the mean. We conducted this project during the COVID-19 disruption, which reduced demand substantially. We took advantage of this to allow staff to spend time on these improvement activities. Another interesting feature of the work is that during the project, we compared changes in performance on our targeted B27/B57 tests with that on another comparable test as a control, to consider the impact of the general increased attention (the Hawthorne effect). We found that performance on this control also increased comparably, but then fell away after our project finished, while it did not for B27/B57.

Abstract
Statins are inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase, a key enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis, that are highly effective in reducing plasma low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and decreasing the risk of cardiovascular events. In recent years, a multitude of variants in genes involved in pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) have been suggested to influence the cholesterol-lowering response. However, the vast majority of studies have analyzed the pharmacogenetic associations in populations in Europe and the USA, whereas data in other populations, including Brazil, are mostly lacking. This narrative review provides an update of clinical studies on statin pharmacogenomics in Brazilian cohorts exploring lipid-lowering response, adverse events and pleiotropic effects. We find that variants in drug transporter genes (SLCO1B1 and ABCB1) positively impacted atorvastatin and simvastatin response, whereas variants in genes of drug metabolizing enzymes (CYP3A5) decreased response. Furthermore, multiple associations of variants in PD genes (HMGCR, LDLR and APOB) with statin response were identified. Few studies have explored statin-related adverse events, and only ABCB1 but not SLCO1B1 variants were robustly associated with increased risk in Brazil. Statin-related pleiotropic effects were shown to be influenced by variants in PD (LDLR, NR1H2) and antioxidant enzyme (NOS3, SOD2, MTHFR, SELENOP) genes. The findings of these studies indicate that statin pharmacogenomic associations are distinctly different in Brazil compared to other populations. This review also discusses the clinical implications of pharmacogenetic studies and the rising importance of investigating rare variants to explore their association with statin response.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHR) are heterogeneous in their pathomechanisms, clinical presentation, severity, and outcomes. Novel DHR mechanisms, phenotypes, and endotypes have been described. The key to prevention from further exposure to the culprit drugs involves correct identification of the putative drug through a combination of in vitro and/or in vivo tests, accurate drug allergy labeling and reporting, and electronic decision support systems within electronic medical records to prevent future accidental prescribing. Prescreening and premedication, the focus of this review, may be a useful adjunct to preventive measures in certain situations. After an index immediate drug hypersensitivity reaction, prescreening may be useful in perioperative anaphylaxis, and iodinated (ICM) and gadolinium-based contrast media (GCM) where the culprit and potential alternative agents are skin tested. In certain nonimmediate DHR, pharmacogenomic prescreening may be used before prescribing high-risk drugs (eg, carbamazepine and allopurinol) where specific human-leukocyte antigen genotypes are associated with severe cutaneous adverse reactions. Premedication with antihistamine and systemic corticosteroids is another therapeutic strategy to prevent infusion reactions for certain biologicals and chemotherapeutic agents, in cases of perioperative anaphylaxis, ICM and GCM DHR, and clonal mast cell disorders. Rapid drug desensitization may also be used to induce temporary tolerance in situations where there are limited alternative drugs.

Abstract
The human leukocyte antigen haplotypes HLA-B*15:02 and HLA-A*31:01 have been linked to life-threatening adverse drug reactions to the anticonvulsants carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine. Identification of these haplotypes via pharmacogenetic techniques facilitates implementation of precision medicine to prevent such reactions. Using reference samples from diverse ancestral origins, we investigated the test analytical validity (i.e., ability to detect whether or not the haplotypes were present or absent) of TaqMan assays for single nucleotide variants previously identified as potentially being able to "tag" these haplotypes. A TaqMan custom assay for rs10484555 and an inventoried assay for rs17179220 and were able to identify with 100% sensitivity and 100% specificity HLA-B*15:02 and HLA-A*31:01 respectively. A custom assay for rs144012689 that takes into account a neighboring single nucleotide variant with manual calling was also able to identify HLA-B*15:02 with 100% sensitivity and 100% specificity. A custom assay for rs106235 identified HLA-A*31:01 with 100% sensitivity and 95% specificity. The slight reduction in specificity for the latter was owing to another haplotype (HLA-A*33:03) also being detected. While any positive call using the rs106235 assay could therefore be further investigated, as the presence of the HLA-A*31:01 haplotype confers adverse drug reaction risk, the absence of false negatives (indexed by sensitivity) is more important than false positives. In summary, we present validated TaqMan assay methodology for efficient detection of HLA haplotypes HLA-B*15:02 and HLA-A*31:01. Our data are relevant for other genotyping technologies that identify, or have the potential to identify, these haplotypes using single nucleotide variants.

The increasing availability of genotype data linked with information about drug-response phenotypes has enabled genomewide association studies (GWAS) that uncover genetic determinants of drug response. GWAS have discovered associations between genetic variants and both drug efficacy and adverse drug reactions. Despite these successes, the design of GWAS in pharmacogenomics (PGx) faces unique challenges. In this review, we analyze the last decade of GWAS in PGx. We review trends in publications over time, including the drugs and drug classes studied and the clinical phenotypes used. Several data sharing consortia have contributed substantially to the PGx GWAS literature. We anticipate increased focus on biobanks and highlight phenotypes that would best enable future PGx discoveries.

Abstract
Pharmacogenetic research has resulted in the identification of a multitude of genetic variants that impact drug response or toxicity. These polymorphisms are mostly common and have been included as actionable information in the labels of numerous drugs. In addition to common variants, recent advances in Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies have resulted in the identification of a plethora of rare and population-specific pharmacogenetic variations with unclear functional consequences that are not accessible by conventional forward genetics strategies. In this review, we discuss how comprehensive sequencing information can be translated into personalized pharmacogenomic advice in the age of NGS. Specifically, we provide an update of the functional impacts of rare pharmacogenetic variability and how this information can be leveraged to improve pharmacogenetic guidance. Furthermore, we critically discuss the current status of implementation of pharmacogenetic testing across drug development and layers of care. We identify major gaps and provide perspectives on how these can be minimized to optimize the utilization of NGS data for personalized clinical decision-support.

Abstract
Use of pharmacogenetics (PGx) testing to guide clinical decisions is growing in developed countries. Published guidelines for gene–drug pair analysis are available for prescriptions in psychiatry, but information on their utilization, barriers, and health outcomes in Latin America is limited. As a result, this work aimed at exploring current use, opinions, and perceived obstacles on PGx testing among psychiatrists in Chile, via an online, anonymous survey. Among 123 respondents (5.9% of registered psychiatrists in the country), 16.3% reported ever requesting a PGx test. The vast majority (95%) of tests were ordered by clinicians practicing in the Metropolitan Region of Santiago. Having more than 20 years in practice was positively associated with prior use of PGx (p 0.02, OR 3.74 (1.19–11.80)), while working in the public health system was negatively associated (OR 0.30 (0.10–0.83)). Perceived barriers to local implementation included insufficient evidence of clinical utility, limited clinicians’ knowledge on PGx and on test availability, and health systems’ issues, such as costs and reimbursement. Despite the recognition of these barriers, 80% of respondents asserted that it is likely that they will incorporate PGx tests in their practice in the next five years. Given these results, we propose next steps to facilitate implementation such as further research in health outcomes and clinical utility of known and novel clinically actionable variants, growth in local sequencing capabilities, education of clinicians, incorporation of clinical decision support tools, and economic evaluations, all in local context.

Abstract
Pharmacogenomics has a burgeoning role in cardiovascular medicine, from warfarin dosing to antiplatelet choice, with recent developments in sequencing bringing the promise of personalised medicine ever closer to the bedside. Further scientific evidence, real-world clinical trials, and economic modelling are needed to fully realise this potential. Additionally, tools such as polygenic risk scores, and results from Mendelian randomisation analyses, are only in the early stages of clinical translation and merit further investigation. Genetically targeted rational drug design has a strong evidence base and, due to the nature of genetic data, academia, direct-to-consumer companies, healthcare systems, and industry may meet in an unprecedented manner. Data sharing navigation may prove problematic. The present manuscript addresses these issues and concludes a need for further guidance to be provided to prescribers by professional bodies to aid in the consideration of such complexities and guide translation of scientific knowledge to personalised clinical action, thereby striving to improve patient care. Additionally, technologic infrastructure equipped to handle such large complex data must be adapted to pharmacogenomics and made user friendly for prescribers and patients alike.

Diagnostic procedures & practices in drug allergy/hypersensitivity: a survey of 13 Asian countries. Asia Pac Allergy 2020; 10:e36.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The issues and challenges in the diagnosis of drug allergy/hypersensitivity among children and adults in Asia are likely to be different from non-Asian countries. OBJECTIVE To study the diagnostic modalities used in the evaluation and management of drug allergy/drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) among member societies of the Asia Pacific Association of Allergy, Asthma and Clinical Immunology (APAAACI). METHODS A questionnaire comprising 41 questions was circulated electronically to member societies and individual members of APAAACI between January 23, 2020 and March 6, 2020. RESULTS Twenty-six respondents from 15 member societies and 1 individual member responded. European DHR guidelines were most commonly used. Skin prick and intradermal testing was used by 100%, with only 60% having access to commercial penicillin skin test reagents. In vitro-specific IgE tests were used by 75%, and basophil activation test by 56.3% for immediate DHR. Patch tests were used by 75% in contrast to lymphocyte transformation tests by 25% for nonimmediate DHR. Drug provocation tests were used by 68.8%, the most common indication being to exclude hypersensitivity where history/symptoms were not suggestive of drug hypersensitivity/allergy (93.3%). Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genotype testing was mandatory among 25% respondents before new carbamazepine prescriptions, and 8.3% for allopurinol prescriptions. CONCLUSIONS There was increased use of skin testing for iodinated contrast media hypersensitivity and patch testing for nonimmediate DHR. HLA genotype testing prior to new carbamazepine, allopurinol and abacavir prescriptions remain variable despite strong associations for severe cutaneous adverse reactions with Asian ethnicity. Results of this survey form a useful framework for developing educational and training needs and for improving access to drug allergy diagnostic and treatment modalities across APAAACI member societies.
