Abstract
INTRODUCTION Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome is gaining attention in pharmacovigilance, but its association with antipsychotics, other than clozapine, is still unclear. METHODS We conducted a case/non-case study with disproportionality analysis based on the World Health Organization (WHO) global spontaneous reporting database, VigiBase®. We analyzed individual case safety reports of DRESS syndrome related to antipsychotics compared to (1) all other medications in VigiBase®, (2) carbamazepine (a known positive control), and (3) within classes (typical/atypical) of antipsychotics. We calculated reporting odds ratio (ROR) and Bayesian information component (IC), with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Disproportionate reporting was prioritized based on clinical importance, according to predefined criteria. Additionally, we compared characteristics of patients reporting with serious/non-serious reactions. RESULTS A total of 1534 reports describing DRESS syndrome for 19 antipsychotics were identified. The ROR for antipsychotics as a class as compared to all other medications was 1.0 (95% CI 0.9-1.1). We found disproportionate reporting for clozapine (ROR 2.3, 95% CI 2.1-2.5; IC 1.2, 95% CI 1.1-1.3), cyamemazine (ROR 2.3, 95% CI 1.5-3.5; IC 1.2, 95% CI 0.5-1.7), and chlorpromazine (ROR 1.5, 95% CI 1.1-2.1; IC 0.6, 95% CI 0.1-1.0). We found 35.7% of cases with co-reported anticonvulsants, and 25% with multiple concurrent antipsychotics in serious compared to 8.6% in non-serious cases (p = 0.03). Fatal cases were 164 (10.7%). CONCLUSIONS Apart from the expected association with clozapine, chlorpromazine and cyamemazine (sharing an aromatic heteropolycyclic molecular structure) emerged with a higher-than-expected reporting of DRESS. Better knowledge of the antipsychotic-related DRESS syndrome should increase clinicians' awareness leading to safer prescribing of antipsychotics.

Abstract
Measure of drug-mediated immune reactions that are dependent on the patient's genotype determine individual medication protocols. Despite extensive clinical trials prior to the license of a specific drug, certain patient-specific immune reactions cannot be reliably predicted. The need for acknowledgement of the actual proteomic state for selected individuals under drug administration becomes obvious. The well-established association between certain HLA molecules and drugs or their metabolites has been analyzed in recent years, yet the polymorphic nature of HLA makes a broad prediction unfeasible. Dependent on the patient's genotype, carbamazepine (CBZ) hypersensitivities can cause diverse disease symptoms as maculopapular exanthema, drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms or the more severe diseases Stevens-Johnson-Syndrome or toxic epidermal necrolysis. Not only the association between HLA-B*15:02 or HLA-A*31:01 but also between HLA-B*57:01 and CBZ administration could be demonstrated. This study aimed to illuminate the mechanism of HLA-B*57:01-mediated CBZ hypersensitivity by full proteome analysis. The main CBZ metabolite EPX introduced drastic proteomic alterations as the induction of inflammatory processes through the upstream kinase ERBB2 and the upregulation of NFκB and JAK/STAT pathway implying a pro-apoptotic, pro-necrotic shift in the cellular response. Anti-inflammatory pathways and associated effector proteins were downregulated. This disequilibrium of pro- and anti-inflammatory processes clearly explain fatal immune reactions following CBZ administration.

Abstract
Epilepsy is a chronic and complex condition and is one of the most common neurological diseases, affecting about 50 million people worldwide. Pharmacological therapy has been, and is likely to remain, the main treatment approach for this disease. Although a large number of new antiseizure drugs (ASDs) has been introduced into the market in the last few years, many patients suffer from uncontrolled seizures, demanding the development of more effective therapies. Nanomedicines have emerged as a promising approach to deliver drugs to the brain, potentiating their therapeutic index. Moreover, nanomedicine has applied the knowledge of nanoscience, not only in disease treatment but also in prevention and diagnosis. In the current review, the general features and therapeutic management of epilepsy will be addressed, as well as the main barriers to overcome to obtain better antiseizure therapies. Furthermore, the role of nanomedicines as a valuable tool to selectively deliver drugs will be discussed, considering the ability of nanocarriers to deal with the less favourable physical-chemical properties of some ASDs, enhance their brain penetration, reduce the adverse effects, and circumvent the concerning drug resistance.

Abstract
The immunological mechanisms involved in drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) are complex, and despite important advances, multiple aspects remain poorly understood. These not fully known aspects are mainly related to the factors that drive towards either a tolerant or a hypersensitivity response and specifically regarding the role of B and T cells. In this review, we focus on recent findings on this knowledge area within the last 2 years. We highlight new evidences of covalent and non-covalent interactions of drug antigen with proteins, as well as the very first characterization of naturally processed flucloxacillin-haptenated human leukocyte antigen (HLA) ligands. Moreover, we have analysed new insights into the identification of risk factors associated with the development of DHRs, such as the role of oxidative metabolism of drugs in the activation of the immune system and the discovery of new associations between DHRs and HLA variants. Finally, evidence of IgG-mediated anaphylaxis in humans and the involvement of specific subpopulations of effector cells associated with different clinical entities are also topics explored in this review. All these recent findings are relevant for the underlying pathology mechanisms and advance the field towards a more precise diagnosis, management and treatment approach for DHRs.

Abstract
Type B adverse drug reactions (ADRs) represent a significant threat as their occurrence arises unpredictable and despite proper application of the drug. The severe immune reaction Abacavir Hypersensitivity Syndrome (AHS) that arises in HIV+ patients treated with the antiretroviral drug Abacavir (ABC) strongly correlates to the presence of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genotype HLA-B*57:01 and discriminates HLA-B*57:01+ HIV+ patients from ABC treatment. However, not all HLA-B*57:01+ HIV+ patients are affected by AHS, implying the involvement of further patient-specific factors in the development of AHS. The establishment of a reliable assay to classify HLA-B*57:01 carriers as ABC sensitive or ABC tolerant allowed to investigate the T cell receptor (TCR) Vβ chain repertoire of effector cells and revealed Vβ6 and Vβ24 as potential public TCRs in ABC sensitive HLA-B*57:01 carriers. Furthermore, distinct effects of ABC on the cellular proteome of ABC sensitive and tolerant volunteers were observed and suggest enhanced activation and maturation of dentritic cells (DC) in ABC sensitive volunteers. Analysis of ABC-naïve cellular proteomes identified the T cell immune regulator 1 (TCIRG1) as a potential prognostic biomarker for ABC susceptibility and the involvement of significantly upregulated proteins, particularly in peptide processing, antigen presentation, interferon (IFN), and cytokine regulation.

Abstract
Type B adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are unpredictable based on the drug’s pharmacology and represent a key challenge in pharmacovigilance. For human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-mediated type B ADRs, it is assumed that the protein/small-molecule interaction alters the biophysical and mechanistic properties of the antigen presenting cells. Sophisticated methods enabled the molecular appreciation of HLA-mediated ADRs; in several instances, the drug molecule occupies part of the HLA peptide binding groove and modifies the recruited peptide repertoire thereby causing a strong T-cell-mediated immune response that is resolved upon withdrawal of medication. The severe ADR in HLA-B*57:01+ patients treated with the antiretroviral drug abacavir (ABC) in anti-HIV therapy is an example of HLA-drug-T cell cooperation. However, the long-term damages of the HLA-B*57:01-expressing immune cells following ABC treatment remain unexplained. Utilizing full proteome sequencing following ABC treatment of HLA-B*57:01+ cells, we demonstrate stringent proteomic alteration of the HLA/drug presenting cells. The proteomic content indisputably reflects the cellular condition; this knowledge directs towards individual pharmacovigilance for the development of personalized and safe medication.

Abstract
Antiseizure medications (ASMs) are frequently implicated in T cell-mediated drug hypersensitivity reactions and cause skin tropic pathologies that range in severity from mild rashes to life-threatening systemic syndromes. During the acute stages of the more severe manifestations of these reactions, drug responsive proinflammatory CD8+ T cells display classical features of Th1 cytokine production (e.g. IFNγ) and cytolysis (e.g. granzyme B, perforin). These T cells may be found locally at the site of pathology (e.g. blister cells/fluid), as well as systemically (e.g. blood, organs). What is less understood are the long-lived immunological effects of the memory T cell pool following T cell-mediated drug hypersensitivity reactions. In this study, we examine the ASM carbamazepine (CBZ) and the CBZ-reactive memory T cell pool in patients who have a history of either Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) or toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) from 3-to-20 years following their initial adverse reaction. We show that in vitro drug restimulation of CBZ-reactive CD8+ T cells results in a proinflammatory profile and produces a mainly focused, yet private, T cell receptor (TCR) usage amongst human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B*15:02-positive SJS or TEN patients. Additionally, we show that expression of these CBZ-reactive TCRs in a reporter cell line, lacking endogenous αβTCR, recapitulates the features of TCR activation reported for ASM-treated T cell lines/clones, providing a useful tool for further functional validations. Finally, we conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the HLA-B*15:02 immunopeptidome following ASM (or a metabolite) treatment of a HLA-B*15:02-positive B-lymphoblastoid cell line (C1R.B*15:02) and minor perturbation of the peptide repertoire. Collectively, this study shows that the CBZ-reactive T cells characterized require both the drug and HLA-B*15:02 for activation and that reactivation of memory T cells from blood results in a focused private TCR profile in patients with resolved disease.

Br J Clin Pharmacol 2020; 87:2572-2588. [PMID: 33217013 PMCID: PMC8247401 DOI: 10.1111/bcp.14667] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2020] [Revised: 10/30/2020] [Accepted: 11/13/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Aims Carbamazepine can cause hypersensitivity reactions in ~10% of patients. An immunogenic effect can be produced by the electrophilic 10,11‐epoxide metabolite but not by carbamazepine. Hypothetically, certain single nucleotide polymorphisms might increase the formation of immunogenic metabolites, leading ultimately to hypersensitivity reactions. This study explores the role of clinical and genetic factors in the pharmacokinetics (PK) of carbamazepine and 3 metabolites known to be chemically reactive or formed through reactive intermediates. Methods A combination of rich and sparse PK samples were collected from healthy volunteers and epilepsy patients. All subjects were genotyped for 20 single nucleotide polymorphisms in 11 genes known to be involved in the metabolism or transport of carbamazepine and carbamazepine 10,11‐epoxide. Nonlinear mixed effects modelling was used to build a population‐PK model. Results In total, 248 observations were collected from 80 subjects. A 1‐compartment PK model with first‐order absorption and elimination best described the parent carbamazepine data, with a total clearance of 1.96 L/h, central distribution volume of 164 L and absorption rate constant of 0.45 h−1. Total daily dose and coadministration of phenytoin were significant covariates for total clearance of carbamazepine. EPHX1‐416G/G genotype was a significant covariate for the clearance of carbamazepine 10,11‐epoxide. Conclusion Our data indicate that carbamazepine clearance was affected by total dose and phenytoin coadministration, but not by genetic factors, while carbamazepine 10,11‐epoxide clearance was affected by a variant in the microsomal epoxide hydrolase gene. A much larger sample size would be required to fully evaluate the role of genetic variation in carbamazepine pharmacokinetics, and thereby predisposition to carbamazepine hypersensitivity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this study were to determine the relationship between genetic polymorphisms in gene encodings for CYP3A4 and carbamazepine (CBZ)-induced dose-related side effects in North Indian people with epilepsy. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The current prospective study included 37 patients with CBZ-induced dose-related side effects and 102 patients who did not experience side effects while on CBZ. The genotyping for CYP3A4 allele (CYP3A4*16) was done using real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in Applied Biosystems 7500 RT-PCR System (USA). CBZ was administered in all patients at a dose varying from 15 to 20 mg/kg daily. RESULTS: Various demographic variables were comparable between the groups except that control of seizures was far better in controls. After testing, it was found that none of our patients had the presence of CYP3A4*16 allele. CONCLUSION: CYP3A4*16 allele is not represented significantly in North Indian people with CBZ-induced dose-related side effects.

Unconventional Peptide Presentation by Classical MHC Class I and Implications for T and NK Cell Activation. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21207561. [PMID: 33066279 PMCID: PMC7590165 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21207561] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2020] [Revised: 10/09/2020] [Accepted: 10/10/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
T cell-mediated immune recognition of peptides is initiated upon binding of the antigen receptor on T cells (TCR) to the peptide-MHC complex. TCRs are typically restricted by a particular MHC allele, while polymorphism within the MHC molecule can affect the spectrum of peptides that are bound and presented to the TCR. Classical MHC Class I molecules have a confined binding groove that restricts the length of the presented peptides to typically 8-11 amino acids. Both N- and C-termini of the peptide are bound within binding pockets, allowing the TCR to dock in a diagonal orientation above the MHC-peptide complex. Longer peptides have been observed to bind either in a bulged or zig-zag orientation within the binding groove. More recently, unconventional peptide presentation has been reported for different MHC I molecules. Here, either N- or C-terminal amino acid additions to conventionally presented peptides induced a structural change either within the MHC I molecule that opened the confined binding groove or within the peptide itself, allowing the peptide ends to protrude into the solvent. Since both TCRs on T cells and killer immunoglobulin receptors on Natural Killer (NK) cells contact the MHC I molecule above or at the periphery of the peptide binding groove, unconventionally presented peptides could modulate both T cell and NK cell responses. We will highlight recent advances in our understanding of the functional consequences of unconventional peptide presentation in cellular immunity.

The Mechanistic Differences in HLA-Associated Carbamazepine Hypersensitivity. Pharmaceutics 2019; 11:pharmaceutics11100536. [PMID: 31618895 PMCID: PMC6835980 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics11100536] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2019] [Revised: 10/01/2019] [Accepted: 10/09/2019] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions that resemble acute immune reactions are linked to certain human leucocyte antigen (HLA) alleles. Severe and life-threatening Stevens Johnson Syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis following treatment with the antiepileptic and psychotropic drug Carbamazepine are associated with HLA-B*15:02; whereas carriers of HLA-A*31:01 develop milder symptoms. It is not understood how these immunogenic differences emerge genotype-specific. For HLA-B*15:02 an altered peptide presentation has been described following exposure to the main metabolite of carbamazepine that is binding to certain amino acids in the F pocket of the HLA molecule. The difference in the molecular mechanism of these diseases has not been comprehensively analyzed, yet; and is addressed in this study. Soluble HLA-technology was utilized to examine peptide presentation of HLA-A*31:01 in presence and absence of carbamazepine and its main metabolite and to examine the mode of peptide loading. Proteome analysis of drug-treated and untreated cells was performed. Alterations in sA*31:01-presented peptides after treatment with carbamazepine revealed different half-life times of peptide-HLA- or peptide-drug-HLA complexes. Together with observed changes in the proteome elicited through carbamazepine or its metabolite these results illustrate the mechanistic differences in carbamazepine hypersensitivity for HLA-A*31:01 or B*15:02 patients and constitute the bridge between pharmacology and pharmacogenetics for personalized therapeutics.
