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.

Abstract
Background Asthma and allergic rhinitis (AR) can coexist and cause disabilities. This study aimed to assess the association between AR, asthma control, asthma-related quality of life, and other comorbidities. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in adults with asthma in six hospitals in Thailand. The outcomes were association of asthma control assessed by the asthma control test (ACT), AR, and asthma comorbidities. Not-well-controlled asthma was defined as ACT scores ≤22. The severity of AR was determined by visual analog scale (VAS). Severe AR was defined as VAS ≥5. Asthma-related quality of life (AQLQ), comorbidities, and total IgE were recorded. Results A total of 682 asthmatic patients were included. Median (IQR) age was 58.0 (47.0-64.0) years. 69.9% were female. Not-well-controlled asthma was present in 44.7%. The prevalence of AR was 86.1%. Moderate/severe persistent AR was diagnosed in 21.7% and severe AR was diagnosed in 30.2% of the patients. Inhaled corticosteroid-containing regimens were prescribed in 97.7% of patients. Intranasal corticosteroid and antihistamine were prescribed in 65.7 and 31.7%, respectively. Patients with not-well-controlled asthma had higher body mass index, VAS scores, proportions of pollution exposure, aeroallergen sensitization, severe AR, nasal polyp, urticaria, food allergy, gastroesophageal reflux disease, depression and anxiety, peptic ulcer, and asthma exacerbations, but younger age, lower AQLQ scores, and lower FEV1. Correlation was found between AR severity and ACT (r = -0.461, p < 0.001), AQLQ (r = -0.512, p < 0.001), and total IgE (r = 0.246, p < 0.023). Multiple regression analysis revealed that ACT, AQLQ, and percentage of FEV1/FVC were significantly associated with severe AR. Conclusion Allergic rhinitis is prevalent in Thai asthmatic patients. AR severity is associated with asthma control, quality of life, and pulmonary function. Comprehensive care is essential for patients with uncontrolled asthma, particularly when coexisting with conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diagnosing drug-induced allergy, especially nonimmediate phenotypes, is challenging. Incorrect classifications have unwanted consequences. OBJECTIVE We sought to evaluate the diagnostic utility of IFN-γ ELISpot and clinical parameters in predicting drug-induced nonimmediate hypersensitivity using machine learning. METHODS The study recruited 393 patients. A positive patch test or drug provocation test (DPT) was used to define positive drug hypersensitivity. Various clinical factors were considered in developing random forest (RF) and logistic regression (LR) models. Performances were compared against the IFN-γ ELISpot-only model. RESULTS Among the 102 patients who had 164 DPTs, most patients had severe cutaneous adverse reactions (35/102, 34.3%) and maculopapular exanthems (33/102, 32.4%). Common suspected drugs were antituberculosis drugs (46/164, 28.1%) and β-lactams (42/164, 25.6%). Mean (SD) age of patients with DPT was 52.7 (20.8) years. IFN-γ ELISpot, fixed drug eruption, Naranjo categories, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs were the most important features in all developed models. The RF and LR models had higher discriminating abilities. An IFN-γ ELISpot cutoff value of 16.0 spot-forming cells/106 PBMCs achieved 94.8% specificity and 57.1% sensitivity. Depending on clinical needs, optimal cutoff values for RF and LR models can be chosen to achieve either high specificity (0.41 for 96.1% specificity and 0.52 for 97.4% specificity, respectively) or high sensitivity (0.26 for 78.6% sensitivity and 0.37 for 71.4% sensitivity, respectively). CONCLUSIONS IFN-γ ELISpot assay was valuable in identifying culprit drugs, whether used individually or incorporated in a prediction model. Performances of RF and LR models were comparable. Additional test datasets with DPT would be helpful to validate the model further.

Abstract
The multidisciplinary experts in Thailand developed an asthma management recommendation that was relevant to low-middle income countries (LMICS). Populations level consideration about asthma management is emphasized. The healthcare systems, access to and availability of treatments as well as the asthma populations vary from country to country in LMICS. The feasibility in clinical practice for implementation is also a major issue. For these reasons, the practice guidelines that are relevant to local contexts are essential to improve better asthma control. Furthermore, integrative and collaboration between asthma experts and the public health sector to implement and discriminate such guidelines will help to achieve these challenging goals. The topics covered include the current asthma situation in Thailand and the Asia-Pacific region, the definition of asthma, asthma diagnosis, assessment of asthma patients, asthma treatment - both pharmacological and non-pharmacological, management of asthma exacerbation, management of asthma comorbidities, treatment of asthma in special conditions, severe and uncontrolled asthma, Thai alternative medicine and asthma, and asthma and coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19).

Abstract
PROPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate panels of enzyme-linked immunospot assays (ELISpot) to detect drug-specific mediator releasing cells for confirming culprit drugs in severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs). METHODS Frequencies of drug-induced interleukin-22 (IL-22)-, interferon-gamma (IFN-γ)-, and granzyme-B (GrB)-releasing cells were measured by incubating peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from SCAR patients with the culprit drugs. Potential immunoadjuvants were supplemented to enhance drug-induced mediator responses. RESULTS Twenty-seven patients, including 9 acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP), 10 drug reactions with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms, and 8 Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) were recruited. The average frequencies of drug-induced IL-22-, IFN-γ-, and GrB-releasing cells were 35.5±16.3, 33.0±7.1, and 164.8±43.1 cells/million PBMCs, respectively. The sensitivity of combined IFN-γ/IL-22/GrB ELISpot was higher than that of IFN-γ ELISpot alone for culprit drug detection in all SCAR subjects (77.8% vs 51.9%, P < 0.01). The measurement of drug-induced IL-22- and IFN-γ releasing cells confirmed the culprit drugs in 77.8% of AGEP. The measurement of drug-induced IFN-γ- and GrB-releasing cells confirmed the culprit drugs in 62.5% of SJS/TEN. Alpha-galactosylceramide supplementation significantly increased the frequencies of drug-induced IFN-γ releasing cells. CONCLUSION The measurement of drug-induced IFN-γ-releasing cells is the key for identifying culprit drugs. The additional measurement of drug-induced IL-22-releasing cells enhances ELISpot sensitivity to identify drug-induced AGEP, while the measurement of drug-induced GrB-releasing cells could have a role in SJS/TEN. ELISpot sensitivity might be improved by supplementary alpha-galactosylceramide. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02574988.

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
Atopic dermatitis (AD), a chronic, relapsing dermatitis, is characterized by dry and pruritus skin in patients with a personal or family history of atopy. It affects up to 20% of children and 1-3% of adults in most countries worldwide, and leads to significant treatment costs and morbidity. These guidelines are developed in accordance with evidence-based publications and expert opinions. Following simple algorithms, the guidelines aim to assist adult and pediatric physicians in the better care of patients with AD. As with other diseases, there have been several diagnosis criteria proposed over time. Nonetheless, the classical Hanifin and Rajka criterion with no pathognomonic laboratory biomarkers is still the most widely used worldwide for the diagnosis of AD. The management of AD must be considered case by case to provide suitable care for each patient. Basic therapy is focused on avoiding specific/unspecific provoking factors and hydrating skin. Topical anti-inflammatory treatments such as glucocorticoids and calcineurin inhibitors are suggested for disease flare, and proactive therapy is best for long-term control. Other therapies, including antimicrobial agents, systemic antihistamines, systemic anti-inflammatory agents, immunotherapy, phototherapy, and psychotherapy, are reviewed in these guidelines. Crisaborole, a new topical phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor, can be used twice daily in AD patients over three months old. Dupilumab, a biological drug for patients with moderate-to-severe AD, may be considered in patients with no improvement from other systemic treatments.

Abstract
Aromatic antiepileptic drugs (AEDs)-induced cutaneous adverse drug reactions (cADRs) add up to the limited use of the AEDs in the treatment and prevention of seizures. Human leukocyte antigen-B (HLA-B) alleles have been linked to AEDs-induced cADRs. We investigated the association between cADRs (including Stevens-Johnson syndrome; SJS/toxic epidermal necrolysis; TEN, drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms; DRESS, and Maculopapular eruption; MPE) caused by AEDs (phenytoin, carbamazepine, lamotrigine, phenobarbital and oxcarbazepine) and HLA-B alleles in Thai population. Through the case-control study, 166 patients with AEDs-induced cADRs, 426 AEDs-tolerant patients (AEDs-tolerant controls), and 470 healthy subjects (Thai population) were collected. The HLA genotypes were detected using the polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific oligonucleotide probe (PCR-SSOP) method. We also performed a meta-analysis with these data and other populations. The carrier rate of HLA-B*15:02 was significantly different between AEDs-induced cADRs group and AEDs-tolerant group (Odds ratio; OR 4.28, 95% Confidence interval; CI 2.64-6.95, p < 0.001), AEDs-induced cADRs group and Thai population (OR 2.15, 95%CI 1.41-3.29, p < 0.001). In meta-analysis showed the strong association HLA-B*15:02 with AEDs-induced cADRs (OR 4.77, 95%CI 1.79-12.73, p < 0.001). Furthermore, HLA-B*15:02 was associated with SJS/TEN induced by AEDs (OR 10.28, 95%CI 6.50-16.28, p < 0.001) Phenytoin (OR 4.12, 95%CI 1.77-9.59, p = 0.001) and carbamazepine (OR 137.69, 95%CI 50.97-371.98, p < 0.001). This study demonstrated that genetic association for AEDs-induced cADRs was phenotype-specific. A strong association between HLA-B*15:02 and AEDs-induced SJS/TEN was demonstrated with an OR of 10.79 (95%CI 5.50-21.16, p < 0.001) when compared with AEDs-tolerant group. On the other hand, the carrier rates of HLA-B*08:01, HLA-B*13:01, and HLA-B*56:02 were significantly higher in the DRESS group compared with the AEDs-tolerant group (p = 0.029, 0.007, and 0.017, respectively). The HLA-B*15:02 allele may represent a risk factor for AEDs-induced cADRs.

Abstract
HLA-B*13:01 allele has been identified as the genetic determinant of dapsone hypersensitivity syndrome (DHS) among leprosy and non-leprosy patients in several studies. Dapsone hydroxylamine (DDS-NHOH), an active metabolite of dapsone, has been believed to be responsible for DHS. However, studies have not highlighted the importance of other genetic polymorphisms in dapsone-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCAR). We investigated the association of HLA alleles and cytochrome P450 (CYP) alleles with dapsone-induced SCAR in Thai non-leprosy patients. A prospective cohort study, 16 Thai patients of dapsone-induced SCARs (5 SJS-TEN and 11 DRESS) and 9 Taiwanese patients of dapsone-induced SCARs (2 SJS-TEN and 7 DRESS), 40 dapsone-tolerant controls, and 470 general Thai population were enrolled. HLA class I and II alleles were genotyped using polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific oligonucleotides (PCR-SSOs). CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4 genotypes were determined by the TaqMan real-time PCR assay. We performed computational analyses of dapsone and DDS-NHOH interacting with HLA-B*13:01 and HLA-B*13:02 alleles by the molecular docking approach. Among all the HLA alleles, only HLA-B*13:01 allele was found to be significantly associated with dapsone-induced SCARs (OR = 39.00, 95% CI = 7.67–198.21, p = 5.3447 × 10−7), SJS-TEN (OR = 36.00, 95% CI = 3.19–405.89, p = 2.1657 × 10−3), and DRESS (OR = 40.50, 95% CI = 6.38–257.03, p = 1.0784 × 10−5) as compared to dapsone-tolerant controls. Also, HLA-B*13:01 allele was strongly associated with dapsone-induced SCARs in Asians (OR = 36.00, 95% CI = 8.67–149.52, p = 2.8068 × 10−7) and Taiwanese (OR = 31.50, 95% CI = 4.80–206.56, p = 2.5519 × 10−3). Furthermore, dapsone and DDS-NHOH fit within the extra-deep sub pocket of the antigen-binding site of the HLA-B*13:01 allele and change the antigen-recognition site. However, there was no significant association between genetic polymorphism of cytochrome P450 (CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4) and dapsone-induced SCARs (SJS-TEN and DRESS). The results of this study support the specific genotyping of the HLA-B*13:01 allele to avoid dapsone-induced SCARs including SJS-TEN and DRESS before initiating dapsone therapy in the Asian population.

Abstract
HLA-B*13:01-positive patients in Thailand can develop frequent co-trimoxazole hypersensitivity reactions. This study aimed to characterize drug-specific T cells from three co-trimoxazole hypersensitive patients presenting with either Stevens-Johnson syndrome or drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms. Two of the patients carried the HLA allele of interest, namely HLA-B*13:01. Sulfamethoxazole and nitroso sulfamethoxazole specific T cell clones were generated from T cell lines of co-trimoxazole hypersensitive HLA-B*13:01-positive patients. Clones were characterized for antigen specificity and cross-reactivity with structurally related compounds by measuring proliferation and cytokine release. Surface marker expression was characterized via flow cytometry. Mechanistic studies were conducted to assess pathways of T cell activation in response to antigen stimulation. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from all patients were stimulated to proliferate and secrete IFN-γ with nitroso sulfamethoxazole. All sulfamethoxazole and nitroso sulfamethoxazole specific T cell clones expressed the CD4+ phenotype and strongly secreted IL-13 as well as IFN-γ, granzyme B and IL-22. No secretion of IL-17 was observed. A number of nitroso sulfamethoxazole-specific clones cross-reacted with nitroso dapsone but not sulfamethoxazole whereas sulfamethoxazole specific clones cross-reacted with nitroso sulfamethoxazole only. The nitroso sulfamethoxazole specific clones were activated in both antigen processing-dependent and -independent manner, while sulfamethoxazole activated T cell responses via direct HLA binding. Furthermore, activation of nitroso sulfamethoxazole-specific, but not sulfamethoxazole-specific, clones was blocked with glutathione. Sulfamethoxazole and nitroso sulfamethoxazole specific T cell clones from hypersensitive patients were CD4+ which suggests that HLA-B*13:01 is not directly involved in the iatrogenic disease observed in co-trimoxazole hypersensitivity patients.

Abstract
Drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) occasionally present with severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) which result in a high risk of morbidity and mortality. Although SCARs are rare, the occurrence could lead to a significant increase in healthcare and economic burden, especially when more than one possible culprit drug is implicated. Therefore, the accurate identification of the culprit drug(s) is important for correct labeling and subsequent patient education and avoidance. To date, clinical evaluation using causality assessment has limitations because the assessment may be inaccurate due to the overlapping timelines when multiple drugs are initiated/continued. Moreover, drug provocation tests (DPTs) which is the gold standard in diagnosis, are contraindicated, and in vivo skin tests may also be associated with risks of triggering SCAR. The European Network for Drug Allergy recommended that in vitro tests, if available, should be performed before any in vivo tests. Basophil activation tests and lymphocyte transformation tests, could serve as reliable in vitro tests for both immediate and delayed-type DHR. Many academic medical centers with affiliated laboratory services offer these tests in the diagnostic evaluation of SCARs in clinical practice. This not only complements identification of the culprit drug(s), but may also be used to test for potentially non cross-reactive alternatives, hence avoiding DPTs. In this review, we summarize the roles of in vitro tests in identifying the culprit drug(s) in SCARs, issues with utilization and interpretation of test results, and our experience in clinical practice.

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.

Abstract
Co-trimoxazole (CTX) causes various forms of severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs). This case-control study was conducted to investigate the involvement between genetic variants of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and CYP2C9 in CTX-induced SCARs, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS)/toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) in Thai patients. Thirty cases of CTX-induced SCARs were enrolled and compared with 91 CTX-tolerant controls and 150 people from the general Thai population. Cases comprised 18 SJS/TEN and 12 DRESS patients. This study demonstrated that genetic association of CTX-induced SCARs was phenotype-specific. HLA-B*15:02 and HLA-C*08:01 alleles were significantly associated with CTX-induced SJS/TEN, whereas the HLA-B*13:01 allele was significantly associated with CTX-induced DRESS. In addition, a significant higher frequency of HLA-A*11:01-B*15:02 and HLA-B*13:01-C*03:04 haplotypes were detected in the group of CTX-induced Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) and DRESS cases, respectively. Genetic association of CTX-induced SCARs is phenotype-specific. Interestingly, these association was observed only in HIV-infected patients but not in non-HIV-infected patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To adapted the Drug Hypersensitivity Quality of Life (DrHy-Q) Questionnaire from Italian into Thai and assessed its validity and reliability. DESIGN Prospectively recruited during January 2012-May 2017. SETTING Multicenter; six Thai tertiary university hospitals. STUDY PARTICIPANTS Total of 306 patients with physician-diagnosed drug hypersensitivity. INTERVENTIONS Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were evaluated among 68 participants using Cronbach's ɑ and intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC). The validity of Thai DrHy-Q was assessed among 306 participants who completed World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF-THAI). Construct and divergent validities were assessed for Thai DrHy-Q. Known-groups validity assessing discriminating ability was conducted in Thai DrHy-Q and WHOQOL-BREF-THAI. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Validity; reliability; single vs. multiple drug allergy; non-severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCAR) vs. SCAR. RESULTS Thai DrHy-Q showed good reliability (Cronbach's ɑ = 0.94 and ICC = 0.8). Unidimensional factor structure was established by confirmatory factor analysis (CFI&TLI = 0.999, RMSEA = 0.02). Divergent validity was confirmed by weak correlation between Thai DrHy-Q and WHOQOL-BREF-THAI domains (Pearson's r = -0.41 to -0.19). Known-groups validity of Thai DrHy-Q was confirmed with significant difference between patients with and without life-threatening SCAR (P = 0.02) and patients with multiple implicated drug classes vs. those with one class (P < 0.01); while WHOQOL-BREF-THAI could differentiate presence of life-threatening SCAR (P < 0.01) but not multiple-drug allergy. CONCLUSIONS Thai DrHy-Q was reliable and valid in evaluating quality of life among patients with drug hypersensitivity. Thai DrHy-Q was able to discriminate serious drug allergy phenotypes from non-serious manifestations in clinical practice and capture more specific drug-hypersensitivity aspects than WHOQOL-BREF-THAI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to describe the genetic and clinical risk factors associated with phenytoin-induced cutaneous adverse drug reactions (PHT-induced cADRs) in Thai patients. METHOD A retrospective case-control study was conducted among 88 PHT- cADRs (25 SJS/TEN, 37 DRESS/DIHS and 26 MPE) compared to 70 PHT-tolerant controls during 2008-2017. Genotyping was performed by Taqman RT-PCR (EPHX1 337 T > C, EPHX1 416A > G and CYP2C9*3), pyrosequencing (UGT1A1*28, UGT1A1*6) and polymerase chain reaction-sequence-specific oligonucleotide probe (HLA-B). Chi-squared test and binary logistic regression were used to identify factors associated with PHT-cADRs. RESULTS Multivariate analysis showed that HLA-B*46:01 was significantly associated with all PHT-induced cADRs (OR 2.341; 95% CI, 1.078-5.084; P = .032). Age of ≥60 years showed a significant association with PHT-induced SJS/TEN (OR 3.600; 95% CI, 1.214-10.672; P = .021). CYP2C9*3 was almost reaching statistically associated with an increased risk of PHT-induced SJS/TEN (OR 4.800; 95% CI, 0.960-23.990; P = .056). While HLA-B*56:02/04 was found to have a significant association with PHT-induced DRESS/DIHS (OR 29.312; 95% CI, 1.213-707.994; P = .038). Moreover, female gender and HLA-B*40:01 were associated with an increased risk of PHT-induced MPE at OR 5.734; 95% CI, 0.910-58.351; P = .042 and OR 3.647; 95% CI, 1.193-11.147; P = .023, respectively. CONCLUSION Both clinical (advanced age, female gender) and genetic factors (HLA-B*46:01, CYP2C9*3, HLA-B*56:02/04 and HLA-B*40:01) contributed to the risk of PHT-induced cADRs. Further studies with larger sample size may be warranted to confirm these findings and also the influence of EPHX1 gene.

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 Specific IgE against Solenopsis invicta (imported fire ant) remains the current diagnostic tool for allergy to ants worldwide. However, S. invicta may not be the only cause of ant anaphylaxis in Thai patients. OBJECTIVE To characterize ant species causing anaphylaxis in Thai patients and to test allergenic reactivity to whole body extracts (WBE) of S. geminata (tropical fire ants) in patients with evidence of IgE-mediated ant anaphylaxis. METHODS Thirty-two patients with ant anaphylaxis were identified. The causative ants collected by the patients were subjected to species identification. Twelve patients with ant anaphylaxis and showed positive skin test or serum specific IgE to S. invicta and 14 control subjects were recruited. Whole body extraction from S. geminata was performed for protein characterization using SDS-PAGE and protein staining. IgE-immunoblotting and ELISA-specific IgE binding assays were performed on patients' sera and compared with controls. RESULTS Of 32 patients with ant anaphylaxis, the most common causative ant identified was S. geminata (37.5%). Western blot analysis of crude S. geminata revealed 13 refined protein components that bound to patients' serum IgE. Three major allergens with molecular masses of 26, 55 and 75 kDa were identified. All 12 patients gave positive results for specific IgE to S. geminata with statistically significant higher absorbance units of 0.390 ± 0.044, compared to healthy control group (0.121 ± 0.010), P < 0.01. CONCLUSIONS S. geminata is identified as the most common causative ant anaphylaxis in Thai patients. Its WBE comprises of 13 IgE-binding components and 3 major allergens (26, 55 and 75 kDa), which supported possible IgE-mediated mechanism.

Abstract
All beta-lactam use is associated with a certain rate of adverse reactions. Many of these adverse reactions result in an allergy to the beta-lactam being entered into the patient's medical record. Unfortunately, only a small minority of these recorded allergies are clinically significant immunologically mediated drug hypersensitivity. An unconfirmed allergy to beta-lactams is a significant public health risk, because patients so labeled typically do not receive narrow-spectrum penicillins and cephalosporins when clinically indicated. The alternative antibiotics they receive result in poorer clinical outcomes, increased incidence of serious antibiotic-resistant infections, prolonged hospitalizations, and greater health care utilization. There is a wide variation in beta-lactam allergy incidence and prevalence around the world, based in part on the specific beta-lactams used and overused. There is a wide variation in specific protocols used to confirm current tolerance of beta-lactams and remove these inaccurate allergy reports. Harmonizing testing protocols, when possible, may lead to more widespread use of narrow-spectrum beta-lactams, when clinically indicated, and improve patient safety worldwide. Further research is needed to better understand the regional differences in reporting beta-lactam allergy as this relates to regional differences in beta-lactam use and overuse, the frequency of clinically significant immunologically mediated beta-lactam hypersensitivity, and the optimal testing strategies to confirm current tolerance, based on presenting clinical symptoms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The lymphocyte transformation test (LTT) is a standard laboratory method to identify culprit drugs in patients with a history of drug-induced non-immediate hypersensitivity and is mainly performed during the recovery phase. The measurement of drug-specific interferon γ (IFN-γ)-releasing cells has been introduced to confirm culprit drugs, even during the acute phase of drug allergy. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the capability of the enzyme-linked immunospot assay (ELISpot) to detect drug-specific IFN-γ-releasing cells during the acute phase and the capability of LTT to identify culprit drugs during the recovery phase in patients presenting with severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs). METHODS Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 23 SCAR patients were collected during the acute and recovery phases and assayed for drug-specific IFN-γ-releasing cells and lymphocyte proliferation, respectively. RESULTS Drug-specific IFN-γ-releasing cells were detectable in 73.9% of SCAR subjects (55.6% and 85.7% in patients who were and were not taking systemic steroids, respectively), whereas LTT results were positive in 52.2% of SCAR subjects. The frequencies of drug-specific IFN-γ-releasing cells were significantly higher in patients with positive LTT than in those with negative LTT (260.1 ± 110.0 and 46.6 ± 20.7 cells/106 PBMCs, P = 0.01). A significant correlation between the results of the IFN-γ ELISpot assay and LTT was demonstrated (r = 0.65, P value <0.01). CONCLUSION The IFN-γ ELISpot assay could be a useful tool to identify culprit drugs in SCAR patients when culprit drug identification is urgently needed during the acute phase of drug allergy.

Abstract
Background: Lamotrigine (LTG) is commonly used for treatment of epilepsy and bipolar disorder. It is one of the common cause of cutaneous adverse drug reactions (CADR). Clinical symptoms of LTG-induced CADR range from maculopapular exanthema (MPE) to severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCAR). This study aimed to determine the association of the LTG-induced CADR with human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles in Thai patients. Methods: Fifteen patients with LTG-induced CADR [10 MPE; 4 Stevens–Johnson syndrome; and 1 drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms] and 50 LTG-tolerant controls were included in the study. HLA-A and HLA-B genotyping was performed using polymerase chain reaction-sequence-specific oligonucleotides probes. Results: The proportion of HLA-A∗02:07 and HLA-B∗15:02 allele carriers were significantly higher in the LTG-induced CADR group than in the tolerant controls [odds ratio (OR): 7.83; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.60–38.25; P = 0.013, and OR: 4.89; 95% CI: 1.28–18.67; P = 0.014]. In addition, subjects with HLA-A∗33:03, HLA-B∗15:02, and HLA-B∗44:03 were significantly higher in the LTG-induced MPE group than in the tolerant controls (OR: 8.27; 95% CI: 1.83–37.41; P = 0.005, OR: 7.33; 95% CI: 1.63–33.02; P = 0.005; and OR: 10.29; 95% CI: 1.45–72.81; P = 0.029). In contrast to the LTG-induced MPE group, there were no significant differences between HLA alleles and LTG-induced SCAR group. Conclusion:HLA-A∗02:07 and HLA-B∗15:02 were associated with LTG-induced CADR in Thai patients. We also identified an association between HLA-A∗33:03, HLA-B∗15:02, and HLA-B∗44:03 and LTG-induced MPE in this population. These results suggest that these alleles could be useful screening markers for preventing CADR before LTG treatment in Thai patients, but further replication studies with larger sample sizes are needed.

Abstract
Background Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) overlap syndrome (ACOS) is an increasingly recognized clinical entity. ACOS significantly impacts on patient outcome compared to isolated asthma or COPD. However, ACOS definition and diagnosis criteria have not been well standardized. ACOS prevalence and clinical features in Thailand has never been studied. Objective: To investigate the prevalence and clinical features of ACOS compared to isolated asthma or COPD among patients with clinician-diagnosis of obstructive airway diseases. Objective To investigate the prevalence and clinical features of ACOS compared to isolated asthma or COPD among patients with clinician-diagnosis of obstructive airway diseases. Methods Spirometry, skin prick test (SPT) and allergens specific IgE (sIgE) were done. Serum total IgE, exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and blood eosinophils were measured. High resolution computed tomography (HRCT) was performed. Smoking history, pollution, biomass exposure and symptoms (Asthma Control Test [ACT], COPD assessment test [CAT], Modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale [MMCR]) were assessed. Patients were classified to isolated asthma, COPD or ACOS according to predefined definitions for this study. Results A total 92 patients were enrolled: 58 patients with clinician-diagnosed of late onset asthma and 34 with clinician-diagnosed COPD. The mean age was 67.4 years. Thirty-four asthma patients (58.6%) were considered to have ACOS with postbronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)/forced vital capacity ratio <0.7 and/or presence of emphysema on HRCT. In addition, 10 COPD patients (28.6%) were classified as ACOS if they had bronchodilator reversibility (FEV1 ≥ 12% and ≥ 200 mL) and positive SPT or sIgE. Hence, total of 44 from 92 patients (47.8%) with obstructive airway diseases were found to have ACOS, while isolated asthma and COPD were found in 24 patients equally. No difference in symptoms assessed by CAT, ACT, or MMRC was found between 3 groups of patients. Neither serum total IgE nor blood eosinophils counts distinguished ACOS from asthma and COPD (p = 0.83 and p = 0.40). FeNO was higher in pure COPD than ACOS and asthma (p = 0.03). Conclusion ACOS is prevalent in late-onset asthma or clinician-diagnosed COPD who were treated in tertiary care clinic. However, we found no difference in symptoms, blood eosinophils or serum total IgE between groups.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Skin testing with penicilloyl-polylysine (PPL) and a minor determinant mixture (MDM) were previously recommended for evaluating β-lactam hypersensitivity. However, PPL and MDM have not been commercially available. This study was to determine the negative predictive value (NPV) of skin testing with β-lactam antibiotics for the diagnosis of β-lactam hypersensitivity. METHOD Patients age 1-18 years old with a history of β-lactam hypersensitivity were evaluated by skin tests (a skin prick test, an intradermal test) with penicillin G, ampicillin, amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, and the suspect βlactam. The patients who had a negative skin test were performed with a drug provocation test (DPT) in a 3-dose-graded challenge. The hypersensitivity reactions were classified into immediate and non-immediate reactions. RESULTS A total of 126 patients were evaluated for β-lactam hypersensitivity. Twenty two patients (17.4%) were confirmed with a ?-lactam hypersensitivity. 12 (54.54 %) of them were confirmed by a skin test. There was no systemic reaction occurring after the skin tests. Ten patients (9.6%) from 104 patients with a negative skin test showed reactions after a DPT providing the NPV of the skin test with a 91.2% value. CONCLUSIONS Among those children with a history of β-lactam hypersensitivity, skin testing with penicillin G, ampicillin, amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, and the suspect β-lactam was safe and provided a good NPV when PPL and MDM were unavailable. However, a skin test with β-lactam antibiotics alone did not provide a high sensitivity, thus a DPT procedure was necessary in order to confirm the diagnosis of β-lactam hypersensitivity.

Abstract
Intralesional triamcinolone acetonide injection is indicated for multiple skin conditions such as keloid scars, alopecia areata, and hypertrophic lichen planus. Immediate hypersensitivity reaction remains uncommon. We report on a 24-year-old woman who had received multiple intralesional injections with triamcinolone acetonide (Kenacort) plus lidocaine for keloid scar treatment without any reaction for the previous 10 years. The immediate reaction occurred 15 minutes after injection, with numbness on her face and 5 minutes later with urticaria on her chest wall and upper extremities, together with hypotension (blood pressure of 90/60 mmHg). Allergology workup revealed positive skin prick test for triamcinolone acetonide (Kenacort). Skin tests for other corticosteroids (hydrocortisone, methylprednisolone, and dexamethasone), excipients (carboxymethylcellulose, benzyl alcohol, and polysorbate 80) and lidocaine were negative, including subcutaneous challenge for lidocaine and oral challenge for carboxymethylcellulose. IgE-mediated hypersensitivity reaction must be considered in cases of multiple applications of triamcinolone acetonide injection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Drug provocation tests (DPT) are commonly performed as part of β-lactam (BL) allergy workup, in case of negative skin tests (ST) and in the absence of contraindications. The recommendations of learned societies have created a frame for DPT performance, but protocols vary widely between centres, generating various hypothesis-driven protocols (i.e. empirical dosing, driven by both safety concerns and practical aspects). METHODS The primary objective of this retrospective analysis was to detect eliciting dose thresholds (reactive doses) during BL DPT, using the survival analysis method, in order to suggest optimal step doses. Our secondary objective was to evaluate the safety of our 30-min incremental 1-day protocol. The study included all the patients explored in the Allergy Unit of the University Hospital of Montpellier (France), between September 1996 and July 2015 for a suspicion of drug hypersensitivity reaction to BLs, with negative ST and positive DPT. RESULTS During the study period, 182 positive DPT (accounting for 171 hypersensitive patients) were analysed. We identified eliciting thresholds, and we suggest the following steps for DPT to BLs: 5-15-30-50% of daily therapeutic dose (with additional lower steps for index reactions of anaphylaxis). We confirm the safety of 1-day protocol for immediate and mild nonimmediate reactors, for both children and adults, with a surveillance period of 2 h after the last administered dose, and a prolonged surveillance after discharge of 48 h. CONCLUSION This data-driven approach in designing DPT protocols is a step forward in improving DPT standardization, starting with the most frequently tested drugs, BL antibiotics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The house dust mite (HDM) allergen Der p 13 could be a lipid-binding protein able to activate key innate signaling pathways in the initiation of the allergic response. We investigated the IgE reactivity of recombinant Der p 13 (rDer p 13), its lipid-binding activities, and its capacity to stimulate airway epithelium cells. METHODS Purified rDer p 13 was characterized by mass spectrometry, circular dichroism, fluorescence-based lipid-binding assays, and in silico structural prediction. IgE-binding activity and allergenic potential of Der p 13 were examined by ELISA, basophil degranulation assays, and in vitro airway epithelial cell activation assays. RESULTS Protein modeling and biophysical analysis indicated that Der p 13 adopts a β-barrel structure with a predominately apolar pocket representing a potential binding site for hydrophobic ligands. Fluorescent lipid-binding assays confirmed that the protein is highly selective for ligands and that it binds a fatty acid with a dissociation constant typical of lipid transporter proteins. The low IgE-binding frequency (7%, n = 224) in Thai HDM-allergic patients as well as the limited propensity to activate basophil degranulation classifies Der p 13 as a minor HDM allergen. Nevertheless, the protein with its presumptively associated lipid(s) triggered the production of IL-8 and GM-CSF in respiratory epithelial cells through a TLR2-, MyD88-, NF-kB-, and MAPK-dependent signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS Although a minor allergen, Der p 13 may, through its lipid-binding capacity, play a role in the initiation of the HDM-allergic response through TLR2 activation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Allopurinol is a frequent cause of severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs), such as drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). The reactions can potentially be fatal. As drug rechallenge in patients with a history of drug-induced SCARs is contraindicated, in vitro testing may have a diagnostic role as a confirmation test. OBJECTIVES To study the diagnostic value of interferon (IFN)-γ enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISpot) assay as a confirmatory test in patients with a history of allopurinol-induced SCARs. METHODS Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 24 patients with a history of allopurinol-induced SCAR (13 DRESS, 11 SJS/TEN) and 21 control subjects were incubated with allopurinol or oxypurinol in the presence or absence of antiprogrammed death ligand 1 antibody (anti-PD-L1). The numbers of IFN-γ-releasing cells after stimulation in each group were subsequently measured with ELISpot. RESULTS The numbers of IFN-γ-releasing cells in allopurinol-allergic subjects were significantly higher than in control subjects when stimulating PBMCs with oxypurinol 100 μg mL-1 , especially when adding anti-PD-L1 supplementation. According to the receiver operating characteristic curve results, the optimal discriminatory power of IFN-γ ELISpot in confirming diagnosis of allopurinol-induced SCARs can be obtained using 16 spot-forming cells per 106 PBMCs as a cut-off value upon oxypurinol/anti-PD-L1 stimulation (79·2% sensitivity and 95·2% specificity). CONCLUSIONS The measurement of oxypurinol/anti-PD-L1-inducing IFN-γ-releasing cells yields a high diagnostic value in distinguishing between allopurinol-allergic and control subjects. This technique is beneficial in confirming diagnosis of allopurinol-induced SCARs in patients whose reaction develops while taking multiple drugs.

Abstract
Background Asthma in the elderly is severe and associated with poor treatment outcome. Although atopy has an important role in pathogenesis, its role in the elderly is unclear, partly due to immune senescence. Objective We aimed to examine the associations of Th2-mediated inflammation with asthma severity in the elderly. Methods Consecutive asthmatics older than 60 years without severe exacerbation within 8 weeks were enrolled. Atopic status was determined by positive serum specific IgE or skin prick test to common aeroallergens. Serum total IgE was measured simultaneously to exhaled fractional concentration of nitric oxide (FeNO). Asthma control level was assessed by using Thai Asthma Control Test (ACT) score. Results Total of 44 elderly asthmatic patients were enrolled. The mean age was 68.9 years and mean age of asthma diagnosis was 46.6 years. Seventy-seven percent of patients were female. Atopic status was found in 45.5% of patients. Uncontrolled asthma classified as ACT score < 20 was noted in 25% of elderly asthma, but its association with either high serum total IgE (≥120 IU/mL), high FeNO (≥50 ppb) or atopic status was not detected. Conclusion One-fourth of elderly asthmatics were clinically uncontrolled, while atopy was confirmed in 45.5%. Neither high total IgE, high FeNO nor atopic status was associated with uncontrolled asthma in the elderly. Other factors might play role in asthma severity in the elderly, and has to be further investigated.

Abstract
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the predisposition to different types of allopurinol-induced cutaneous adverse drug reactions (CADR), including Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN; SJS-TEN, n = 13), drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS, n = 10) and Maculopapular eruption (MPE; n = 7), conferred by HLA-B*58:01 in a Thai population. Methods: This case-control association study compares 30 patients with allopurinol-induced CADR, allopurinol-tolerant control patients (n = 100), and a Thai general population (n = 1095). Patients' human leukocyte antigen type B (HLA-B) alleles were genotyped by using a two-stage sequence-specific oligonucleotide probe system. Results: Of a total 30 patients with CADR due to allopurinol, 29 (96.7%) patients were found to be at least heterozygous for HLA-B*58:01, compared to only 4.0% in allopurinol-tolerant patients (p < 0.001). Odds ratio (OR) for the association of HLA-B*58:01 with allopurinol-induced CADR in this population was 696.0 (95% CI: 74.8–6475.0). The HLA-B*58:01 allele was present in all patients with allopurinol-induced SJS-TEN (OR = 579.0, 95%CI: 29.5–11362.7, p < 0.001) and DRESS (OR 430.3, 95%CI: 22.6–8958.9, p < 0.001). Additionally, OR of HLA-B*58:01 was highly significant in the allopurinol-induced MPE patients (OR 144.0, 95%CI: 13.9–1497.0, p < 0.001). Conclusion: In this study we confirmed the association between HLAB*58:01 and allopurinol-induced SJS-TEN in a Thai population. In addition, we identified an association between HLA-B*58:01 and allopurinol-induced DRESS and MPE in this population. Therefore, HLA-B*58:01 can be used as a pharmacogenetic marker for allopurinol-induced CADR including SJS-TEN, DRESS and MPE. These results suggest that screening for HLA-B*58:01 alleles in patients who will be treated with allopurinol would be clinically helpful in preventing the risk of developing CARD in a Thai patients. SummaryRegardless of phenotype, this is the first pharmacogenetic study of allopurinol-induced CADR in patients of Thai ancestry. In this study we confirmed the association between HLA-B*58:01 and allopurinol-induced SJS-TEN, DRESS, and MPE in Thai population. Regarding to our findings, the pharmacogenetic interpretation could be generalized to drug hypersensitivity including DRESS, SJS-TEN, and MPE.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The in-depth characterization of the recently identified house dust mite (HDM) major allergen Der p 23 requires the production of its recombinant counterpart because the natural allergen is poorly extractable from fecal pellets. This study aimed to provide a detailed physico-chemical characterization of recombinant Der p 23 (rDer p 23) as well as to investigate its IgE reactivity in a cohort of HDM-allergic patients from Thailand. METHODS Purified rDer p 23, secreted from recombinant Pichia pastoris, was characterized by mass spectrometry and circular dichroism analyses as well as for its chitin-binding activity. The IgE-binding frequency and allergenicity of Der p 23 were determined by ELISA and RBL-SX38 degranulation assays, respectively. RESULTS Purified intact rDer p 23 carried O-mannosylation and mainly adopted a random coil structure. Polyclonal antibodies to rDer p 23 can detect the corresponding natural allergen (nDer p 23) in aqueous fecal pellet extracts, suggesting that both forms of Der p 23 share common B-cell epitopes. Despite its homologies with chitin-binding proteins, both natural Der p 23 and rDer p 23 were unable to interact in vitro with chitin matrices. Of 222 Thai HDM-allergic patients tested, 54% displayed Der p 23-specific IgE responses. Finally, the allergenicity of rDer p 23 was confirmed by the degranulation of rat basophil leukemia cells. CONCLUSION Our findings highlighted important levels of Der p 23 sensitizations in Thailand. Our study clearly suggested that rDer p 23 is likely more appropriate for HDM allergy component-resolved diagnosis than HDM extracts.
