Abstract
<h4>Background</h4>β-lactam antibiotics are associated with a variety of immune-mediated or hypersensitivity reactions, including immediate (type I) reactions mediated by antigen-specific IgE.<h4>Objective</h4>We sought to identify genetic predisposing factors for immediate reactions to β-lactam antibiotics.<h4>Methods</h4>Patients with a clinical history of immediate hypersensitivity reactions to either penicillins or cephalosporins, which were immunologically confirmed, were recruited from allergy clinics. A genome-wide association study was conducted on 662 patients (the discovery cohort) with a diagnosis of immediate hypersensitivity and the main finding was replicated in a cohort of 98 Spanish cases, recruited using the same diagnostic criteria as the discovery cohort.<h4>Results</h4>Genome-wide association study identified rs71542416 within the Class II HLA region as the top hit (P = 2 × 10<sup>-14</sup>); this was in linkage disequilibrium with HLA-DRB1∗10:01 (odds ratio, 2.93; P = 5.4 × 10<sup>-7</sup>) and HLA-DQA1∗01:05 (odds ratio, 2.93, P = 5.4 × 10<sup>-7</sup>). Haplotype analysis identified that HLA-DRB1∗10:01 was a risk factor even without the HLA-DQA1∗01:05 allele. The association with HLA-DRB1∗10:01 was replicated in another cohort, with the meta-analysis of the discovery and replication cohorts showing that HLA-DRB1∗10:01 increased the risk of immediate hypersensitivity at a genome-wide level (odds ratio, 2.96; P = 4.1 × 10<sup>-9</sup>). No association with HLA-DRB1∗10:01 was identified in 268 patients with delayed hypersensitivity reactions to β-lactams.<h4>Conclusions</h4>HLA-DRB1∗10:01 predisposed to immediate hypersensitivity reactions to penicillins. Further work to identify other predisposing HLA and non-HLA loci is required.
