Abstract
Drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DiHS), also known as drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), is a severe cutaneous adverse reaction (SCAR) characterized by an exanthem, fever, and hematologic and visceral organ involvement. Anticonvulsants, antibiotics, and allopurinol are the most common triggers. The pathogenesis involves a complex interplay between drugs, viruses, and the immune system primarily mediated by T-cells. DiHS/DRESS typically presents with a morbilliform eruption 2-6 weeks after drug exposure, and is associated with significant morbidity, mortality, and risk of relapse. Long-term sequelae primarily relate to organ dysfunction and autoimmune diseases. Part I of this continuing medical education activity on DiHS/DRESS provides an update on epidemiology, novel insights into pathogenesis, and a description of clinicopathological features and prognosis.

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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Allopurinol has been causing substantial morbidity and mortality particularly in Asian population by producing cutaneous adverse drug reactions (cADRs). Nonetheless, there are no data describing whether other genetics are a valid marker for prediction of allopurinol-induced cADRs patients in addition to HLA-B*58:01 allele. The goal of this study was to identify suitable single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for allopurinol induced cADRs among Thai patients. METHODS We conducted a case-control association study after enrolling 57 Thai patients with allopurinol induced cADRs and 101 allopurinol-tolerant controls. The genetic biomarkers and associated SNPs located on chromosome 6p21 were examined by TaqMan® SNP genotyping assays in both the cases and the controls. RESULTS Out of fifteen SNPs in nine genes, we found four combined SNPs (rs3099844 of HCP5, rs9263726 of PSORS1C1, rs9263733 of POLR2LP, and rs9263745 of CCHCR1) were significantly associated with allopurinol-induced cADRs compared to the tolerant controls (OR 73.2; 95% CI 24.2-266.8; P = 1.9 × 10- 24). The overall sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of these combinations were 84%, 94%, 9%, and 100%, respectively. However, the variant alleles of these SNP combinations were detected in 89.5% (51/57) of the cases. Moreover, the HLA-B*58:01 allele was observed in 86.0% of patients with allopurinol-induced cADRs, but only in 4.0% of tolerant controls (OR: 137.2; 95% CI: 38.3-670.5 and p-value = 1.7 × 10- 27). CONCLUSIONS Thus, this research confirms the association between the specific HLA-B*58:01 allele and all phenotypes of allopurinol-induced cADRs in Thais. Furthermore, there was found the combined four SNPs (rs3099844, rs9263726, rs9263733, and rs9263745) could be used as alternative novel biomarkers for predicting cADRs in patients taking allopurinol.

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
DRESS (Drug Rash with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms) syndrome is a rare, life-threatening, hypersensitivity reaction. The prolonged course and non-specific symptoms of the condition make diagnosis challenging. We present a case of DRESS syndrome that was misdiagnosed as urticaria. Investigations revealed deranged liver and kidney functions and abnormal blood count. The presented case emphasizes the need to have a high suspicion for DRESS syndrome in patients who present with jaundice, generalized rash, acute renal failure, and acute liver failure.

Abstract
Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), also known as drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DIHS), is a severe drug-induced hypersensitivity reaction with 10% mortality. To date, there is insufficient evidence regarding the association between DRESS/DIHS and serum levels of vancomycin (VCM). Here, we report the case of a 46-year-old woman undergoing peritoneal dialysis who developed VCM-induced DRESS/DIHS. She was hospitalized for peritonitis with abdominal pain and treated with VCM. On day 10 of hospitalization, her abdominal symptoms improved; however, fever, skin rash, lymphadenopathy, eosinophilia, atypical lymphocytes, and liver and renal dysfunction developed. Based on the clinical course and laboratory findings, we diagnosed the patient with DRESS/DIHS due to VCM. Since her serum VCM concentration was high at 39.8 μg/mL, hemodialysis (HD) was performed to remove VCM, which caused her symptoms to improve. However, serum levels of VCM rebounded and the same symptoms recurred. Therefore, we re-performed HD; no further relapse occurred. This clinical course showed that increased serum VCM levels were associated with DRESS/DIHS onset and severity, suggesting that it is a blood level-dependent disease and that removal of VCM by HD is a potential therapeutic option.

Abstract
Allopurinol (ALP) is a successful drug used in the treatment of gout. However, this drug has been implicated in hypersensitivity reactions that can cause severe to life-threatening reactions such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). Individuals who carry the human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B*58:01 allotype are at higher risk of experiencing a hypersensitivity reaction (odds ratios ranging from 5.62 to 580.3 for mild to severe reactions, respectively). In addition to the parent drug, the metabolite oxypurinol (OXP) is implicated in triggering T cell-mediated immunopathology via a labile interaction with HLA-B*58:01. To date, there has been limited information regarding the T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire usage of reactive T cells in patients with ALP-induced SJS or TEN and, in particular, there are no reports examining paired αβTCRs. Here, using in vitro drug-treated PBMCs isolated from both resolved ALP-induced SJS/TEN cases and drug-naïve healthy donors, we show that OXP is the driver of CD8+ T cell-mediated responses and that drug-exposed memory T cells can exhibit a proinflammatory immunophenotype similar to T cells described during active disease. Furthermore, this response supported the pharmacological interaction with immune receptors (p-i) concept by showcasing (i) the labile metabolite interaction with peptide/HLA complexes, (ii) immunogenic complex formation at the cell surface, and (iii) lack of requirement for antigen processing to elicit drug-induced T cell responsiveness. Examination of paired OXP-induced αβTCR repertoires highlighted an oligoclonal and private clonotypic profile in both resolved ALP-induced SJS/TEN cases and drug-naïve healthy donors.

Abstract
Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) is a severe and potentially life-threatening drug hypersensitivity reaction. The diagnosis and management of DRESS are complicated due to its heterogeneous clinical and pathologic presentations, delayed onset of signs and symptoms, and unpredictable outcome. This retrospective study aimed to analyze cases of DRESS from a single Italian referring tertiary hospital center (Grande Ospedale Metropolitano Niguarda, Milan, Italy) with a focus on clinical features, causative drugs, histopathologic findings, and treatment. We have included 18 of 32 patients with a probable or definite diagnosis of DRESS. The study observed a slight predominance of women, with antimicrobials and allopurinol identified as the main causative drugs. Clinical manifestations varied, with a monomorphic maculopapular eruption being the most common, whereas facial edema and mucosal involvement were less frequently observed. Multiple organs were commonly affected, with liver and kidney involvement being prominent. Cardiac involvement was associated with the severity of eosinophilia. Laboratory evaluations showed elevated eosinophil levels and increased eosinophil cationic protein levels, supporting the role of eosinophils in DRESS pathogenesis. Histopathologic analysis revealed various patterns often coexisting in the same biopsy in 83% of cases, with interface dermatitis being the most frequent, followed by the perivascular pattern and the spongiotic/eczematous pattern. We observed eosinophils in the biopsy samples in about 50% of patients, and the relationship between peripheral eosinophilia and eosinophils in skin biopsies was not significant. In addition to the RegiSCAR score, age may play a role in predicting disease severity, as older patients with lower scores had poorer outcomes. The prognosis of DRESS depended on early identification, discontinuation of the causative agent, and appropriate therapy. Systemic corticosteroids were the primary treatment option.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions are classified into immediate and delayed types, according to the onset time. In contrast to the immediate type, delayed drug hypersensitivity mainly involves T lymphocyte recognition of the drug antigens and cell activation. The clinical presentations of such hypersensitivity are various and range from mild reactions (e.g., maculopapular exanthema (MPE) and fixed drug eruption (FDE)), to drug-induced liver injury (DILI) and severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) (e.g., Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP)). The common culprits of delayed drug hypersensitivity include anti-epileptics, antibiotics, anti-gout agents, anti-viral drugs, etc. Delayed drug hypersensitivity is proposed to be initiated by different models of molecular recognition, composed of drug/metabolite antigen and endogenous peptide, HLA presentation, and T cell receptor (TCR) interaction. Increasing the genetic variants of HLA loci and drug metabolic enzymes has been identified to be responsible for delayed drug hypersensitivity. Furthermore, preferential TCR clonotypes, and the activation of cytotoxic proteins/cytokines/chemokines, are also involved in the pathogenesis of delayed drug hypersensitivity. This review provides a summary of the current understanding of the molecular recognition, genetic susceptibility, and immune mediators of delayed drug hypersensitivity.

Abstract
Vancomycin is a commonly used antibiotic; however, it can cause life-threatening severe cutaneous adverse reactions, such as drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS). A previous study has reported a strong association between HLA-A*32:01 and vancomycin-induced DRESS in European ethnicity. Herein, we aim to investigate the genetic predisposition of vancomycin-induced DRESS in the Han-Chinese population. In this study, we enrolled a total of 26 patients with vancomycin-induced DRESS, 1,616 general population controls, and 51 subjects tolerant to vancomycin. In vitro granulysin-based lymphocyte activation tests (LAT) were conducted among 6 vancomycin-induced DRESS patients who were concomitantly receiving other medicines. HLA-A and HLA-B genotypes were determined by sequencing-based typing. Our results found that vancomycin-induced DRESS was associated with HLA-A*32:01 [odds ratio (OR) = 7.8, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.7-35.8; p-value = 0.035], HLA-B*07:05 (OR = 32.3, 95% CI = 2.8-367.7; p-value = 0.047), HLA-B*40:06 (OR = 4.7, 95% CI = 1.3-16.1; p-value = 0.036) and HLA-B*67:01 (OR = 44.8, 95% CI = 7.2-280.4; p-value = 0.002) when comparing the vancomycin-induced DRESS patients with the general population controls. LAT results showed that granulysin significantly increased in the vancomycin-induced DRESS patients upon vancomycin stimulation (4.7 ± 3.7 fold increased), but not upon other co-medicines. This study identified that, in addition to HLA-A*32:01, HLA-B*07:05, HLA-B*40:06, and HLA-B*67:01 were also genetic markers for vancomycin-induced DRESS in the Han-Chinese population. Associations of ethnic variances in HLA with vancomycin-DRESS were observed.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Allopurinol-induced drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) is a rare but serious and potentially life-threatening drug hypersensitivity syndrome. In this study, we aimed to investigate the clinical features, treatment outcomes, and prognostic factors of allopurinol-induced DRESS. METHODS Case reports of allopurinol-induced DRESS published by China from January 2000 to August 2021 were retrieved from CNKI, Wan Fang, VIP, and PubMed databases for analysis. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION This study included 52 patients, consisting of 41 (78.8%) males and 11 (21.2%) females (M:F = 3.7:1). The mean of age was 56.1 ± 17.1 years (range: 18-86 years). The mean of latency periods was 24.6 ± 15.0 days (range:1-63 days). Most patients presented with fever, cutaneous eruption, eosinophilia, lymphadenopathy, and facial edema. 36/52 (69.2%) patients showed two or more internal organs involved. Liver and kidney injuries were the most common visceral manifestation. Pulmonary involvement (34.6%), cardiac involvement (25.0%) and gastrointestinal involvement (21.2%) were relatively less known but severe complications. 2/52 (3.8%) patients showed nervous system involved, presenting as leukoencephalopathy or peripheral neuropathy. 2/52 (3.8%) patients presented with secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.1/52 (1.9%) patient developed pure red cell aplasia and 1/52 (1.9%) patient developed painless thyroiditis. HLA*B 58:01 allele was tested in 18/52 (34.6%) patients. 16/18 (88.9%) cases were positive. 48/52 (92.3%) patients were treated with systemic corticosteroids. 16/52 (30.8%) patients were cured, 23/52 (44.2%) patients received partial recovery, and 13/52 (25.0%) patients were died. Septic shock, gastrointestinal bleeding and multiple organ failure were the leading causes of death. Advanced age, underlying cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease and high dose of allopurinol, infection and internal organ involvement (including kidney, heart, lung and gastrointestinal tract) were risk factors for death. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION We explored clinical features, treatment outcomes and prognostic factors of 52 allopurinol-induced DRESS cases in China. Ethnicity, especially Han Chinese, and positive HLA-B*58:01 allele are the clearest risk factors so far. Advanced age, underlying cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease and high dose of allopurinol, infection and internal organ involvement (including kidney, heart, lung and gastrointestinal tract) were associated with poorer outcomes. Early identification and discontinuation of the causative drug are crucial to the management of DRESS. For patients with severe disease, corticosteroids are recommended as the first-line therapy. However, further studies are needed to address diagnostic criteria of DRESS for early diagnosis, as well as to develop standardized corticosteroid treatment regimens.

Abstract
Adverse drug reactions (ADR) remain the major problems in healthcare. Most severe ADR are unpredictable, dose-independent and termed as type B idiosyncratic reactions. Recent pharmacogenomic studies have demonstrated the strong associations between severe ADR and genetic markers, including specific HLA alleles (e.g., HLA-B*15:02/HLA-B*57:01/HLA-A*31:01 for carbamazepine-induced severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions [SCAR], HLA-B*58:01 for allopurinol-SCAR, HLA-B*57:01 for abacavir-hypersensitivity, HLA-B*13:01 for dapsone/co-trimoxazole-induced SCAR, and HLA-A*33:01 for terbinafine-induced liver injury), drug metabolism enzymes (such as CYP2C9*3 for phenytoin-induced SCAR and missense variant of TPMT/NUDT15 for thiopurine-induced leukopenia), drug transporters (e.g., SLCO1B1 polymorphism for statin-induced myopathy), and T cell receptors (Sulfanilamide binding into the CDR3/Vα of the TCR 1.3). This mini review article aims to summarize the current knowledge of pharmacogenomics of severe ADR, and the potentially clinical use of these genetic markers for avoidance of ADR.

Abstract
Delayed drug hypersensitivity continues to contribute to major clinical problems worldwide. The clinical presentations of delayed drug hypersensitivity are diverse, ranging from mild skin rashes to life-threatening systemic reactions. The pathomechanism of delayed drug hypersensitivity involves human leukocyte antigens (HLA) presentation of drugs/metabolites to T cell receptors (TCR), resulting in T-cell activation. The pathogenesis of delayed drug hypersensitivity also has reactivation of the virus, and activation of many immune mediators. In this review, we discuss the immune pathogenesis, molecular interactions of HLA/drugs/TCR, and downstream signaling of cytotoxic proteins/cytokines/chemokines, as well as disease prevention and management for delayed drug hypersensitivity.

Abstract
Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DReSS), also known as drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DiHS), is a severe, systemic, T cell mediated drug reaction with combinations of cutaneous, hematologic, and internal organ involvement. Pathogenesis of DReSS is multi-factorial, involving drug-exposure, genetic predisposition through specific human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles and metabolism defects, viral reactivation, and immune dysregulation. Clinical features of this condition are delayed, stepwise, and heterogenous, making this syndrome challenging to recognize and diagnose. Two sets of validated diagnostic criteria exist that can be employed to diagnose DReSS/DiHS. Methods to improve early recognition of DReSS and predict disease severity has been a recent area of research focus. In vitro and in vivo tests can be employed to confirm the diagnosis and help identify culprit drugs. The mainstay treatment of DReSS is prompt withdrawal of the culprit drug, supportive treatment, and immunosuppression depending on the severity of disease. We present a comprehensive review on the most recent research and literature on DReSS, with emphasis on pathogenesis, clinical features, diagnosis, confirmatory testing modalities, and treatment. Additionally, this summary aims to highlight the differing viewpoints on this severe disease and broaden our perspective on the condition known as DReSS.

OBJECTIVE This narrative review evaluates the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and management of DRESS for emergency clinicians. DISCUSSION DRESS is a severe hypersensitivity reaction which can involve multiple organ systems, including the skin, lymphatic system, lungs, kidneys, and heart. Treatment is primarily supportive care combined with removal of the offending agent and initiation of corticosteroids. Additional options include cyclophosphamide, cyclosporine, intravenous immunoglobulin, and N-acetylcysteine. CONCLUSION It is important for the emergency clinician to be aware of the diagnosis and management of DRESS in order to best optimize care for these patients.

Abstract
Aim: To reveal the association of three class I HLA alleles, including HLA-A*33:03, HLA-B*58:01 and HLA-C*03:02, and allopurinol-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) in Vietnamese patients. Methods: A case–control study on 100 allopurinol-induced SCARs patients, 183 tolerant controls and 810 population controls was performed. The HLA-A*33:03 and HLA-C*03:02 alleles were detected with the nested allele-specific PCR method; the HLA-B*58:01 allele was detected with the sequence-specific primer PCR method. Results: There were strong associations between HLA-B*58:01 and HLA-C*03:02 and allopurinol-induced SCARs. Specific associations were found between HLA-B*58:01 and Stevens–Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis and between HLA-C*03:02 and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms, with a gene dosage effect. The multivariate regression analysis indicated two significant independent risk factors: HLA-B*58:01/HLA-C*03:02 and estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 ml/min/1.73 m2. The specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of HLA-B*58:01 testing were higher than the HLA-C*03:02 or the multiplex testing, especially in patients with impaired renal function. Conclusion: The results supported pre-treatment HLA-B*58:01 testing in Vietnamese patients with declined renal function to prevent SCARs.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Allopurinol is widely used for hyperuricemia and gouty arthritis, but is associated with cutaneous adverse drug reactions (CADRs). HLA-B*58:01 is a highly specific and effective genetic marker for the detection of allopurinol-induced CADRs, especially for Asian descents. CASE SUMMARY A 60-year-old Chinese Han male patient took allopurinol for lowering uric acid after the negative result from HLA-B*58:01 testing. Then, he experienced episodes of well-demarcated pruritic erythematous patches on the whole body that developed into blisters and pustular eruption. Fixed drug eruption (FDE) was diagnosed by skin biopsy and improved with withdrawal and hormone treatments. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION It should be kept in mind that cutaneous drug eruption might occur after allopurinol administration in Asians of HLA-B*58:01 negative. Awareness among medical practitioners about FDE can lead to correct diagnosis, treatment and decreased damage as well as lower therapeutic costs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions (SCARs) including Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) are high-mortality adverse drug reactions. The risk factors and prognosis of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) concomitant with SCAR warrant clarification. We aimed to evaluate the characteristics and outcomes of DILI with SCAR. METHODS We analysed the database of a 10-year multi-centre prospective study in Taiwan from 2011 to 2020. RESULTS A total of 1415 patients with DILI were enrolled, including 81 cases combined with SJS/TEN, 74 with DRESS, 3 with AGEP and 1257 with pure DILI. Approximated 11.2% of patients had SCAR, of which allopurinol was the leading incriminated drug, followed by sulphonamides and carbamazepine. The SJS/TEN group had the highest mortality (34.6%). Jaundice, acute kidney injury and SJS/TEN were independent risk factors of mortality (odds ratio: 29.54, 4.43 and 4.86, respectively, P < .003). Chronic kidney disease with high-dose allopurinol also contributed to high mortality (78.9%) in cases of allopurinol-induced DILI with SCAR. The HLA-B*5801 was associated with a high risk and mortality of allopurinol-induced DILI with SCAR. Likewise, the HLA-B*1502 was closely related to carbamazepine-induced DILI with SCAR. CONCLUSIONS DILI patients combined with SCAR are common and have a high mortality in Taiwan. Allopurinol is the leading incriminated drug. Jaundice, acute kidney injury and SJS/TEN are risk factors of mortality. HLA-B*5801, chronic kidney disease and high drug dosage also contribute to high mortality in allopurinol-induced DILI with SCAR.

Abstract
Delayed-type drug hypersensitivity reactions (dtDHR) are immune-mediated reactions with skin and visceral manifestations ranging from mild to severe. Clinical care is negatively impacted by a limited understanding of disease pathogenesis. Though T cells are believed to orchestrate disease, the type of T cell and the location and mechanism of T cell activation remain unknown. Resident memory T cells (TRM) are a unique T cell population potentially well situated to act as key mediators in disease pathogenesis, but significant obstacles to defining, identifying, and testing TRM in dtDHR preclude definitive conclusions at this time. Deeper mechanistic interrogation to address these unanswered questions is necessary, as involvement of TRM in disease has significant implications for prediction, diagnosis, and treatment of disease.

HLA-B*58:01 screening to prevent allopurinol-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions in Chinese patients with chronic kidney disease. Arch Dermatol Res 2021; 314:651-659.

Abstract
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B*58:01 allele is a significant risk factor for allopurinol-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) which is potentially fatal. In some studies, chronic kidney disease (CKD) was also implicated to compound the risk of SCARs. We aim to investigate if pre-treatment HLA-B*58:01 screening can prevent allopurinol-induced SCARs in Chinese patients with CKD and its cost-effectiveness. We prospectively recruited Chinese CKD patients who required allopurinol during 2011-2015 and performed pre-treatment HLA testing (HLA screening group). Patients tested positive for HLA-B*58:01 were refrained from allopurinol while those tested negative were prescribed allopurinol. The incidence of SCARs in the HLA screening group was compared with the historical control in previous 5 years and the cost-effectiveness of HLA testing was analyzed. In the historical control (2006-2010), 3605 patients on allopurinol were screened, 22 out of 1027 (2.14%) CKD Chinese patients newly started on allopurinol developed SCARs, including 6 SJS/TEN. In the HLA screening group, 28 out of 192 patients (14.6%) tested HLA-B*58:01 positive were advised to avoid allopurinol; 156 out of 164 HLA-B*58:01-negative patients received allopurinol and none developed SCARs. The incidence rate of SCARs was significantly lower in the HLA screening group compared with controls (0% vs 2.14% respectively, p = 0.037*). The targeted HLA screening approach was associated with lower healthcare costs compared with no HLA screening (US$ 92,430 vs US$ 281,226). Pre-treatment HLA-B*58:01 screening is cost-effective to target on patients with CKD in Chinese to prevent allopurinol-induced SCARs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim was to evaluate the efficacy, defined as achieving target serum urate <6.0 mg/dl, and safety of urate-lowering therapies (ULTs) for people with gout and chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 3-5. METHODS PubMed, The Cochrane Library and EMBASE were searched from 1 January 1959 to 31 January 2018 for studies that enrolled people with gout, who had an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) or creatinine clearance (CrCl) of <60 ml/min and exposure to allopurinol, febuxostat, probenecid, benzbromarone, lesinurad or pegloticase. All study designs other than case reports were included, except for people on dialysis, for whom we did include case reports. RESULTS There were 36 reports with an analysis of efficacy and/or safety based upon renal function: allopurinol (n = 12), febuxostat (n = 10), probenecid (n = 3), benzbromarone (n = 5), lesinurad (n = 5) and pegloticase (n = 1). There were 108 reports that involved people with gout and renal impairment but did not contain any analysis on efficacy and/or safety based upon renal function: allopurinol (n = 84), febuxostat (n = 14), benzbromarone (n = 1), lesinurad (n = 3) and pegloticase (n = 6). Most studies excluded people with more severe degrees of renal impairment (eGFR or CrCl of <30 ml/min). For allopurinol, in particular, there was significant variability in the dose of drug used and the efficacy in terms of urate lowering, across all levels of renal impairment. CONCLUSION There is a lack of evidence regarding the efficacy and/or safety of currently used ULTs according to different levels of renal function. Future studies should include patients with CKD and should report study outcomes stratified by renal function.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To provide updates on recent advances in the diagnosis and management of drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome. RECENT FINDINGS The number of identified HLA allele associations with DRESS continues to grow. There is increasing evidence indicating viral infection, reactivation, and cross-reactivity may play key roles in disease. Translational work illuminated JAK/STAT activation in recalcitrant disease. There is expanding recognition of rapid-onset DRESS resulting from specific drugs. SUMMARY DRESS is a severe form of adverse drug reaction with potential for significant morbidity and mortality. Recent research advances may improve clinical care. HLA screening can now be performed to prevent disease in susceptible patients and may help identify culprit drugs in the near future. Viral testing should be performed on every patient, and if positive, patients potentially treated with antiviral therapy. JAK inhibitors may be an effective treatment option for DRESS. Early onset of disease relative to drug exposure should not exclude the diagnosis of DRESS.

Abstract
A correct diagnosis of drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) is very important for both the patient and health system. However, DHRs diagnosis is complex, time consuming, requires trained personnel, is not standardized for many drugs, involves procedures not exempt of risk, and in most cases lacks standardized in vivo and in vitro tests. Thus, there is an urgent need for improving the different approaches to diagnose patients with suspected DHRs. In this review, we have analyzed the advances performed in immediate and nonimmediate DHRs diagnosis during the last two years and obtained several conclusions: the significant heterogeneity in current practice among centers illustrates the need to re-evaluate, update, and standardize in vivo tests and protocols for the diagnosis and management of patients with suspected drug allergy. Regarding in vitro tests, the latest studies have focused on increasing their sensitivity or on establishing the sensitivity and specificity for the tests performed with new drugs. There seems to be a consensus about combining in vivo and in vitro tests as the best way to increase the diagnostic accuracy.

Abstract
Introduction Certain HLA variants are associated with an increased risk of hypersensitivity reactions to specific drugs. Both the Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) and the Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) have issued actionable HLA gene - drug interaction guidelines but diagnostic test criteria remain largely unknown. We present an overview of the diagnostic test criteria of the actionable HLA - drug pairs. Methods A systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane Library. Original case-control and cohort studies were selected and sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and number needed to genotype (NNG) were calculated for the actionable HLA-drug pairs. Results In general, the HLA tests show high specificity and NPV for predicting hypersensitivity reactions. The sensitivity of HLA tests shows a wide range, from 0-33% for HLA-B*1502 testing to predict lamotrigine induced SJS/TEN up to 100% for HLA-B*5701 to predict immunologically confirmed abacavir hypersensitivity syndrome (ABC-HSR). PPV is low for all tests except for HLA-B*5701 and ABC-HSR which is approximately 50%. HLA-B*5701 to predict ABC-HSR shows the lowest NNG followed by HLA-B*5801 for allopurinol induced severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions and HLA-B*1502 for carbamazepine induced SJS/TEN. Discussion This is the first overview of diagnostic test criteria for actionable HLA-drug pairs. Studies researching HLA genes and hypersensitivity are scarce for some of the HLA-drug pairs in some populations and patient numbers in studies are small. Therefore, more research is necessary to calculate the diagnostic test criteria more accurately.

Abstract
The severe cutaneous adverse reaction epidermal necrolysis (EN) which includes toxic epidermal necrolysis and the milder Stevens-Johnson syndrome is characterized by epidermal loss due to massive keratinocyte apoptosis and/or necroptosis. EN is often caused by a drug mediating a specific TCR-HLA interaction via the (pro)hapten, pharmacological interaction or altered peptide loading mechanism involving a self-peptide presented by keratinocytes. (Memory) CD8 + T cells are activated and exhibit cytotoxicity against keratinocytes via the perforin/granzyme B and granulysin pathway and Fas/FasL interaction. Alternatively drug-induced annexin release by CD14 + monocytes can induce formyl peptide receptor 1 death of keratinocytes by necroptosis. Subsequent keratinocyte death stimulates local inflammation, activating other immune cells producing pro-inflammatory molecules and downregulating regulatory T cells. Widespread epidermal necrolysis and inflammation can induce life-threatening systemic effects, leading to high mortality rates. Research into genetic susceptibility aims to identify risk factors for eventual prevention of EN. Specific HLA class I alleles show the strongest association with EN, but risk variants have also been identified in genes involved in drug metabolism, cellular drug uptake, peptide presentation and function of CD8 + T cells and other immune cells involved in cytotoxic responses. After the acute phase of EN, long-term symptoms can remain or arise mainly affecting the skin and eyes. Mucosal sequelae are characterized by occlusions and strictures due to adherence of denuded surfaces and fibrosis following mucosal inflammation. In addition, systemic pathology can cause acute and chronic hepatic and renal symptoms. EN has a large psychological impact and strongly affects health-related quality of life among EN survivors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate risk factors for cutaneous adverse reactions (CARs) in Kinh Vietnamese. METHODS All patients were prospectively recruited in Ho Chi Minh City. Presence of the HLA-B*58:01 allele was determined by real-time PCR-sequence-specific amplification by using the PG5801 Detection Kit (Pharmigene, Taipei). Patients with severe (SCARs) and mild (MCARs) CARs and controls were compared for differences in features prospectively collected, and odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated. RESULTS On comparing 32 patients with SCARs and 395 tolerant controls, we identified eight strong risk factors: increased age (OR 15.1 [95% CI 5.8-40.1], P < 0.0001), female sex (OR 333 [40-43,453], P < 0.0001), allopurinol for asymptomatic hyperuricemia (OR 955 [120-125,847], P < 0.0001), allopurinol starting dose > 150 mg (OR 316 [101-122], P < 0.0001), diuretics intake (OR 304 [35-40,018], P < 0.0001), eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 (OR 100 [32-353], P < 0.0001), history of allopurinol-induced skin reaction (OR 78 [6-10,808], P = 0.004), and HLA-B*58:01 carriage (OR 147 [45-746], P < 0.0001). HLA-B*58:01 allele frequency in controls was 7.3%. For MCARs (n = 74), risk factors were eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 (OR 4.9 [1.61-14.6], P = 0.006), history of allopurinol-induced skin reaction (OR 27 [2-3777], P = 0.01), and asymptomatic hyperuricemia (OR 27 [2-3777], P = 0.01). CONCLUSION This study confirmed 8 risk factors, including HLA-B*58:01, for SCARs and identified 3 risk factors for MCARs in Kinh Vietnamese. HLA-B*58:01 genotyping could guide the indication for allopurinol in Kinh Vietnamese patients with gout.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Allopurinol is commonly prescribed for gout, and its clinical use may expand with ongoing trials assessing its potential cardiorenal benefits. Because heart disease has been suggested to be a risk factor for allopurinol-associated severe cutaneous adverse reactions, we sought to confirm this association in a Canadian general population cohort. METHODS We used population data from British Columbia, Canada, to identify all incident allopurinol users between 1997 and 2015. We examined the association between heart disease (ischemic heart disease and heart failure) and the risk of hospital admission for severe cutaneous adverse reactions, adjusting for known and purported risk factors. We also evaluated the joint effects of combined clinical and demographic risk factors. RESULTS Among 130 325 allopurinol initiators, 109 hospital admissions occurred for allopurinol-associated severe cutaneous adverse reactions. The multivariable relative risk among those with heart disease was 1.55 (95% confidence interval 1.01-2.37). Patients with heart disease and chronic kidney disease who were started on an allopurinol dosage of greater than 100 mg/d had an 11-fold higher risk. Allopurinol initiation at a lower dosage among patients with heart disease and chronic kidney disease resulted in a fivefold reduction in risk. Older women with heart disease from regions with large Asian populations had a 23-fold higher risk of allopurinol-associated severe cutaneous adverse reactions than younger men without heart disease from other regions. INTERPRETATION Heart disease is independently associated with risk of allopurinol-associated severe cutaneous adverse reactions, similar to chronic kidney disease, and low-dosage allopurinol initiation may substantially mitigate this risk. Risk factors for these rare but serious reactions should be considered when initiating allopurinol.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) are associated with high global morbidity and mortality. Cutaneous T cell-mediated reactions classically occur more than 6 hours after drug administration and include life-threatening conditions such as toxic epidermal necrolysis, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and hypersensitivity syndrome. Over the last 20 years, significant advances have been made in our understanding of the pathogenesis of DHRs with the identification of human leukocyte antigens as predisposing factors. This has led to the development of pharmacogenetic screening tests, such as HLA-B*57:01 in abacavir therapy, which has successfully reduced the incidence of abacavir hypersensitivity reactions. We have completed a PRISMA-compliant systematic review to identify genetic associations that have been reported in DHRs. In total, 105 studies (5554 cases and 123 548 controls) have been included in the review reporting genetic associations with carbamazepine (n = 31), other aromatic antiepileptic drugs (n = 24), abacavir (n = 11), nevirapine (n = 14), trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (n = 11), dapsone (n = 4), allopurinol (n = 10), and other drugs (n = 5). The most commonly reported genetic variants associated with DHRs are located in human leukocyte antigen genes and genes involved in drug metabolism pathways. Increasing our understanding of genetic variants that contribute to DHRs will allow us to improve diagnosis, develop new treatments, and predict and prevent DHRs in the future.

Abstract
Aim: Concerns for fatal severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) hamper allopurinol use. Methods and material: We adopted a health system perspective to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of HLA-B*58:01 genotyping before allopurinol initiation. A decision tree compared three treatment strategies in gout patients with chronic kidney disease who have higher risk for SCAR. They were standard allopurinol treatment followed by febuxostat in nonresponders, test-positive patients receive febuxostat while test-negative receive allopurinol and universal use of febuxostat. Results: The first strategy was the most cost effective. Genotyping dominated universal febuxostat use. Time horizon and SCAR incidence were the most influential factors on the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio. Conclusion: HLA-B*58:01 genotyping compared with standard allopurinol-febuxostat sequential treatment does not provide good value for money in gout with chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
There are no specific therapies for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), and clinical data evaluating the effects of non-specific therapies on ADPKD patients are scarce. We therefore evaluated those effects using data from a longitudinal health insurance database collected from 2000-2010. We individually selected patients with and without ADPKD from inpatient data files as well as from the catastrophic illness registry in Taiwan based on 1:5 frequency matching for sex, age, and index year. The hazard ratios (HR) of all-cause mortality, ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in ADPKD inpatients were elevated as compared to the controls. Similarly, ADPKD patients from the catastrophic illness registry had an increased risk of hemorrhagic stroke and ESRD. Allopurinol users also had an increased risk of all-cause mortality. The HR for developing ESRD after medication exposure was 0.47-fold for statin and 1.93-fold for pentoxifylline. These results reveal that patients with ADPKD (either inpatient or from the catastrophic illness registry) are at elevated risk for hemorrhagic stroke and ESRD, and suggest that allopurinol and pentoxifylline should not be prescribed to ADPKD patients due to possible adverse effects.

Abstract
There are geographical, regional, and ethnic differences in the phenotypes and endotypes of patients with drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) in different parts of the world. In Asia, aspects of drug hypersensitivity of regional importance include IgE-mediated allergies and T-cell-mediated reactions, including severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs), to beta-lactam antibiotics, antituberculous drugs, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and radiocontrast agents. Delabeling of low-risk penicillin allergy using direct oral provocation tests without skin tests have been found to be useful where the drug plausibility of the index reaction is low. Genetic risk associations of relevance to Asia include human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-B*1502 with carbamazepine SCAR, and HLA-B*5801 with allopurinol SCAR in some Asian ethnic groups. There remains a lack of safe and accurate diagnostic tests for antituberculous drug allergy, other than relatively high-risk desensitization regimes to first-line antituberculous therapy. NSAID hypersensitivity is common among both adults and children in Asia, with regional differences in phenotype especially among adults. Low dose aspirin desensitization is an important therapeutic modality in individuals with cross-reactive NSAID hypersensitivity and coronary artery disease following percutaneous coronary intervention. Skin testing allows patients with radiocontrast media hypersensitivity to confirm the suspected agent and test for alternatives, especially when contrasted scans are needed for future monitoring of disease relapse or progression, especially cancers.

Abstract
Background A study to evaluate the prevalence of uric acid (UA) nephrolithiasis with dual-energy CT (DECT) and explore the risk factors for kidney stones in primary gout patients. Methods Eighty-four consecutive gout patients underwent urinary tract ultrasonography or DECT to confirm the existence of kidney stones. Urine and blood samples were also taken for laboratory analysis. Results Forty-one subjects (48.8%) had nephrolithiasis diagnosed; 38 had a kidney stone. Thirty-two of the 38 patients underwent a DECT scan, and 27 patients had nephrolithiasis in DECT. Among them, 63.0% (17/27) and 14.8% (4/21) of the patients had pure UA and UA-based mixed stone, respectively, and 22.2% (6/27) had a non-UA stone. Those with nephrolithiasis suffered from more frequent acute attacks and had longer disease durations of gout. At least one urine biochemical abnormality was found in 81% of patients. Forty-four (55.0%) patients presented hypomagnesuria. Forty-three (51.8%) patients had low urine volume. Unduly acidic urine (UAU) was present in 36 patients (44.4%). Hyperuricosuria was only found in ten (12.2%) patients. In comparison to the non-lithiasic group, the lithiasic group was more likely to have a UAU. Binary logistic regression showed that female gender was a protective factor, while disease duration of gout and low urine pH were risk factors for nephrolithiasis. Conclusion Our results indicated that nephrolithiasis, especially UA stones, were more common than previous reports in gout patients indicated, and that disease duration of gout, and low urine pH, were risk factors for nephrolithiasis.

Abstract
The safety of newer xanthine oxidase inhibitor febuxostat compared to allopurinol remains unclear. To compare the risks of allopurinol hypersensitivity and febuxostat hypersensitivity and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in Asians, we conducted a population-based cohort study enrolling patients receiving allopurinol or febuxostat from Chang Gung Memorial Hospital Health System across Taiwan during 2012-2016 and further performed a meta-analysis incorporating two recent studies. Among the 61,539 users, a corresponding 12,007 and 5,680 patients were identified as new users. The overall incidence of febuxostat hypersensitivity was significantly lower than allopurinol hypersensitivity (0.2 vs. 2.7 per 1,000 new users; P < 0.001). There were 33 allopurinol-hypersensitivity reactions (including 18 severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions), and only one patient developed febuxostat-maculopapular exanthema. Moreover, febuxostat did not statistically increase the risk of CVD (hazard ratio (HR), 1.16; P = 0.152) and related death (HR, 1.49; P = 0.496) compared to allopurinol. The result of the meta-analysis also showed a consistent result. In conclusion, the incidence and severity of febuxostat-hypersensitivity are lower than with allopurinol. Febuxostat did not show an increased risk of CVD and related death.

Abstract
Genome-wide association studies indicate that several idiosyncratic adverse drug reactions are highly associated with specific human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles. For instance, abacavir, a human immunodeficiency virus reverse transcriptase inhibitor, induces multiorgan toxicity exclusively in patients carrying the HLA-B*57:01 allele. However, the underlying mechanism is unclear due to a lack of appropriate animal models. Previously, we developed HLA-B*57:01 transgenic mice and found that topical application of abacavir to the ears induced proliferation of CD8+ lymphocytes in local lymph nodes. Here, we attempted to reproduce abacavir-induced liver injury in these mice. However, oral administration of abacavir alone to HLA-B*57:01 transgenic mice did not increase levels of the liver injury marker alanine aminotransferase. Considering the importance of innate immune activation in mouse liver, we treated mice with CpG oligodeoxynucleotide, a toll-like receptor 9 agonist, plus abacavir. This resulted in a marked increase in alanine aminotransferase, pathological changes in liver, increased numbers of activated CD8+ T cells, and tissue infiltration by immune cells exclusively in HLA-B*57:01 transgenic mice. These results indicate that CpG oligodeoxynucleotide-induced inflammatory reactions and/or innate immune activation are necessary for abacavir-induced HLA-mediated liver injury characterized by infiltration of CD8+ T cells. Thus, we developed the first mouse model of HLA-mediated abacavir-induced idiosyncratic liver injury. Further investigation will show that the proposed HLA-mediated liver injury model can be applied to other combinations of drugs and HLA types, thereby improving drug development and contributing to the development of personalized medicine.

THE JOURNAL OF ALLERGY AND CLINICAL IMMUNOLOGY-IN PRACTICE 2018; 7:1261-1270.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although HLA-B*58:01 is a well-known risk factor for the development of allopurinol-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs), most of the HLA-B*58:01 carriers do not suffer from SCARs despite a long-term use of allopurinol. This suggests that there are other risk factors that determine the fate of HLA-B*58:01 carriers. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the additional genetic factors that increase the risk of allopurinol-induced SCARs in HLA-B*58:01 carriers. METHODS The incidence of allopurinol-induced SCARs was investigated according to coexisting HLA alleles in all subjects with HLA-B*58:01 who took allopurinol between 2003 and 2017. The allopurinol tolerant group was defined as a group who took allopurinol for more than 60 days without developing hypersensitivity and was compared with the allopurinol-induced SCAR group. RESULTS Among the retrospective cohort consisting of 367 HLA-B*58:01 carriers treated with allopurinol, 11 (3.0%) were diagnosed with allopurinol-induced SCARs. When HLA-B75, DR13 homozygosity, or DR14 was present, the incidence of SCARs increased up to 22.2% (odds ratio [OR], 19.568; P = .015), 20.0% (OR, 38.458; P = .001), and 10.7% (OR, 19.355; P = .004), respectively. Among the 153 HLA-B*58:01 carriers with chronic renal insufficiency (CRI), the incidence of SCARs doubled to 6.5% and further increased to 40%, 30%, and 37.5% in the presence of HLA-B75, DR13 homozygosity, or DR14, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Secondary screening with HLA-B75, DR13 homozygosity, and DR14 in addition to primary screening with HLA-B*58:01 would enable a more accurate prediction of SCAR occurrence, especially in patients with CRI.

Abstract
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) affect many patients and remain a major public health problem, as they are a common cause of morbidity and mortality. It is estimated that ADRs are responsible for about 6% of hospital admissions and about 9% of hospitalization costs. Skin is the organ that is most frequently involved in ADRs. Drug-induced skin injuries vary from mild maculopapular eruptions (MPE) to severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) that are potentially life threatening. Genetic factors have been suggested to contribute to these SCARs, and most significant genetic associations have been identified in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes. Common drugs associated with SCARs connected with strong genetic risk factors include antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), allopurinol, abacavir, nevirapine, sulfonamides, dapsone, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and analgesic drugs. However, genetic associations vary between different ethnic populations. Differences may in part be explained by the different prevalence of HLA (human leukocyte antigen) alleles among ethnic groups. In this review, we present and discuss the recent advances in genetic associations with ADRs in the skin. Many of these ADRs are now preventable with pharmacogenetic screening.

Abstract
Current advances in the study of cutaneous adverse drug reactions can be attributed to the recent understanding that the skin is both a metabolically and immunologically competent organ. The ability of the skin to serve as a protective barrier with limited drug biotransformation ability, yet highly active immune function, has provided insights into its biological capability. While the immune response of the skin to drugs is vastly different from that of the liver due to evolutionary conditioning, it frequently occurs in response to various drug classes and manifests as a spectrum of hypersensitivity reactions. The skin is a common site of adverse and idiosyncratic drug reactions; drug-specific T-cells, as well as involvement of an innate immune response, appear to be key mechanistic drivers in such scenarios. Association of other factors such as human leukocyte antigen (HLA) polymorphisms may play a significant role for particular drugs. This review aims to integrate emerging findings into proposed mechanisms of drug metabolism and immunity in the skin that are likely responsible for rashes and other local allergic responses. These unique biological aspects of the skin, and their translation into implications for drug development and the use of animal models, will be discussed.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity may manifest ranging from milder skin reactions (e.g., maculopapular exanthema and urticaria) to severe systemic reactions, such as anaphylaxis, drug reactions with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS)/drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DIHS), or Stevens–Johnson syndrome (SJS)/toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). Current pharmacogenomic studies have made important strides in the prevention of some drug hypersensitivity through the identification of relevant genetic variants, particularly for genes encoding drug-metabolizing enzymes and human leukocyte antigens (HLAs). The associations identified by these studies are usually drug, phenotype, and ethnic specific. The drug presentation models that explain how small drug antigens might interact with HLA and T cell receptor (TCR) molecules in drug hypersensitivity include the hapten theory, the p-i concept, the altered peptide repertoire model, and the altered TCR repertoire model. The broad spectrum of clinical manifestations of drug hypersensitivity involving different drugs, as well as the various pathomechanisms involved, makes the diagnosis and management of it more challenging. This review highlights recent advances in our understanding of the predisposing factors, immune mechanisms, pathogenesis, diagnostic tools, and therapeutic approaches for drug hypersensitivity.

Abstract
Allopurinol is widely used for hyperuricemia and gouty arthritis, but is associated with cutaneous adverse drug reactions (CADRs). Recently, HLA-B*58:01 allele was identified as a strong genetic marker for allopurinol-induced CADRs in Han Chinese. However, the magnitude of association and diagnosis value of HLA-B*58:01 in allopurinol-induced CADRs remain inconclusive. To investigate this inconsistency, we conducted a meta-analysis of 21 pharmacogenetic studies, including 551 patients with allopurinol-induced CADRs, and 2,370 allopurinol-tolerant controls as well as 9,592 healthy volunteers. The summary OR for allopurinol-induced CADRs among HLA-B*58:01 carriers was 82.77 (95% CI: 41.63 – 164.58, P < 10−5) and 100.87 (95% CI: 63.91 – 159.21, P < 10−5) in matched and population based studies, respectively. Significant results were also observed when stratified by outcomes and ethnicity. Furthermore, the summary estimates for quantitative analysis of HLA-B*58:01 allele carriers in allopurinol-induced CADRs screening were as follows: sensitivity, 0.93 (95% CI: 0.85 – 0.97); specificity, 0.89 (95% CI: 0.87 – 0.91); positive likelihood ratio, 8.24 (95% CI: 6.92 – 9.81); negative likelihood ratio, 0.084 (95% CI: 0.039 – 0.179); and diagnostic odds ratio, 98.59 (95% CI: 43.31 – 224.41). The AUSROC was 0.92 (95% CI: 0.89–0.94), indicating the high diagnostic performance. Our results indicated that allopurinol–SCAR is strongly associated with HLA-B*58:01, and HLA-B*58:01 is a highly specific and effective genetic marker for the detection allopurinol-induced CADRs, especially for Asian descents.

Abstract
Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) are life-threatening disease. However, there are only few epidemiologic studies of SJS/TEN from China. To analyze the clinical characteristics, causality, and outcome of treatment for SJS/TEN in China, we reviewed case reports of patients with SJS/TEN from the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Wanfang database from 2006 to 2016 and patients with SJS/TEN who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University during the same period. There were 166 patients enrolled, including 70 SJS, 2 SJS/TEN overlap, and 94 TEN. The most common offending drugs were antibiotics (29.5%) and anticonvulsants (24.1%). Carbamazepine, allopurinol, and penicillins were the most common single offending drugs (17.5%, 9.6%, and 7.2%). Chinese patent medicines accounted for 5.4%. There were 76 (45.8%) patients receiving systemic steroid and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) in combination therapy, especially for TEN (80.3%), and others were treated with systemic steroids alone. Mortality rate of combination treatment comparing with steroid alone in TEN patients had no statistical significance. In conclusion, carbamazepine and allopurinol were the leading causative drugs for SJS/TEN in China. Combination of IVIG and steroids is a common treatment for TEN, but its efficacy in improving mortality needs further investigation.

Abstract
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.

Abstract
Adverse drug reactions (ADR) can be broadly categorised as either on-target or off-target. On-target ADRs arise as a direct consequence of the pharmacological properties of the drug and are therefore predictable and dose-dependent. On-target ADRs comprise the majority (>80%) of ADRs, relate to the drug's interaction with its known pharmacological target and are a result of a complex interplay of genetic and ecologic factors. In contrast, off-target ADRs, including immune-mediated ADRs (IM-ADRs), are due to unintended pharmacological interactions such as inadvertent ligation of host cell receptors or non-pharmacological interactions mediated through an adaptive immune response. IM-ADRs can be classified according to the primary immune cell involved and include B-cell-mediated (Gell-Coombs type I-III reactions) and T-cell-mediated (Gell-Coombs type IV or delayed hypersensitivity) reactions. IM-ADRs mediated by T cells are associated with phenotypically distinct clinical diagnoses and can vary from a mild delayed rash to a life-threatening cutaneous, systemic or organ disease, such as Stephen Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis, drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms and drug-induced liver disease. T-cell-mediated ADRs are strongly linked to the carriage of particular HLA risk alleles which are in the case of abacavir hypersensitivity and HLA-B*57:01 has led to translation into the clinic as a routine screening test. In this review, we will discuss the immunogenetics and pathogenesis of IM-ADRs and how HLA associations inform both pre-drug screening strategies and mechanistic understanding.
