The association with A*33:01 was mediated by large effects for terbinafine-, fenofibrate-, and ticlopidine-related DILI. The variant on chromosome 2 was associated with DILI from a variety of drugs. Further phenotypic analysis indicated that the association between DILI and A*33:01 was significant genome wide for cholestatic and mixed DILI, but not for hepatocellular DILI; the polymorphism on chromosome 2 was associated with cholestatic and mixed DILI as well as hepatocellular DILI. We identified an association between rs28521457 (within the lipopolysaccharide-responsive vesicle trafficking, beach and anchor containing gene) and only hepatocellular DILI (OR, 2.1; 95% CI, 1.6-2.7; P = 4.8 × 10-9). We did not associate any specific drug classes with genetic polymorphisms, except for statin-associated DILI, which was associated with rs116561224 on chromosome 18 (OR, 5.4; 95% CI, 3.0-9.5; P = 7.1 × 10-9). We validated the association between A*33:01 terbinafine- and sertraline-induced DILI. We could not validate the association between DILI and rs72631567, rs28521457, or rs116561224. Conclusions In a GWAS of persons of European descent with DILI, we associated HLA-A*33:01 with DILI due to terbinafine and possibly fenofibrate and ticlopidine. We identified polymorphisms that appear to be associated with DILI from statins, as well as 2 non-drug-specific risk factors.]]> Wed 27 Feb 2019 09:54:18 AEDT ]]> Drug-induced liver injury due to Flucloxacillin: relevance of multiple human leukocyte antigen alleles https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47712 HLA ‐B*57:01 is an established genetic risk factor for flucloxacillin DILI . To consolidate this finding, identify additional genetic factors, and assess relevance of risk factors for flucloxacillin DILI in relation to DILI due to other penicillins, we performed a genomewide association study involving 197 flucloxacillin DILI cases and 6,835 controls. We imputed single‐nucleotide polymorphism and human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genotypes. HLA ‐B*57:01 was the major risk factor (allelic odds ratio (OR ) = 36.62; P = 2.67 x 10−97). HLA ‐B*57:03 also showed an association (OR = 79.21; P = 1.2 x 10−6). Within the HLA ‐B protein sequence, imputation showed valine97, common to HLA ‐B*57:01 and HLA ‐B*57:03, had the largest effect (OR = 38.1; P = 9.7 x 10−97). We found no HLA ‐B*57 association with DILI due to other isoxazolyl penicillins (n = 6) or amoxicillin (n = 15) and no significant non‐HLA signals for any penicillin‐related DILI.]]> Tue 21 Mar 2023 18:39:29 AEDT ]]> Adherence to sofosbuvir and velpatasvir among people with chronic HCV infection and recent injection drug use: The SIMPLIFY study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43014 Fri 09 Sep 2022 16:16:22 AEST ]]>
