Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium Guidelines for HLA-B Genotype and Abacavir Dosing

Abstract: Human leukocyte antigen B (HLA‐B) is responsible for presenting peptides to immune cells and plays a critical role in normal immune recognition of pathogens. A variant allele, HLA‐B*57:01, is associated with increased risk of a hypersensitivity reaction to the anti‐HIV drug abacavir. In the absence of genetic prescreening, hypersensitivity affects ~6% of patients and can be life‐threatening with repeated dosing. We provide recommendations (updated periodically at http://www.pharmkgb.org) for the use of abacavi… Show more

“…Specifically, carriers of this variant are thought to have up to a 117-fold increased risk of developing abacavir HSR [71,73]. Epidemiologically, the HLA-B*5701 frequency in Europeans ranges from 1.4-10.3%, and in Asians from 3.8-19.8%; additionally, it ranges 1.1-3.1% in South Americans [74,75]. Consequently, the Infectious Disease Society of America has recommended HLA-B*5701 genotyping prior to starting ISSN: 2474ISSN: -1914 patients on abacavir [72,76].…”

“…Given these limitations as well as the lack of cost-effectiveness data, it is not surprising that the SSRIs are not good candidates for genotype-based pharmacogenomic therapy and, hence, the recommendation of the EGAPP Working Group. Other pharmacogenomic biomarkers could be better candidates for testing association between specific genotype and clinical phenotype [55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63], as indicated by published guidelines. Pharmacogenetic dosing algorithms [37,39] based on the patient's CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genotypes and other nongenetic factors (e.g., age, body size, and concurrent interacting drug) have been used to determine warfarin dosage regimens.…”
