Introduction
• Guidelines recommend 3 fixed dose NRTI combinations for initial therapy:- Tenofovir + emtricitabine- Abacavir* + lamivudine- Zidovudine + lamivudine
• Combivir® less attractive due to twice daily dosing and probable association with lipoatrophy
*ABC

Introduction
• Adverse events are a common cause of treatment discontinuation1,2
• ABC HSR occurs in 5-8% individuals3,4
• Strong association between ABC HSR and HLA B*5701 positivity5,6
• Prospective testing has reduced ABC HSR in two cohorts7,8

Aims
• To describe the frequency of the HLA B*5701 allele in our clinic cohort
• To assess the rate of ABC discontinuation with prospective HLA testing
• To compare ABC HSR rates before and after the introduction of routine HLA B*5701 screening
![Page 7: HLA Testing: A Single Centre Experience Laura Waters, Andrea Gritz, Desmond Maitland, Brian Gazzard & Mark Nelson. Research Fellow PKR/SSR St. Stephen’s](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082821/5697bfd91a28abf838cafb79/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Methods
• HLA screening was introduced in August 2005 for:
- all treatment-naïve subjects commencing therapy
- treatment-experienced patients considering a switch to ABC
• ABC avoided if B*5701 positive
• All individuals undergoing HLA testing between 1/8/05 and 1/7/06 were reviewed
![Page 8: HLA Testing: A Single Centre Experience Laura Waters, Andrea Gritz, Desmond Maitland, Brian Gazzard & Mark Nelson. Research Fellow PKR/SSR St. Stephen’s](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082821/5697bfd91a28abf838cafb79/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Methods
• Data collected: - gender, ethnicity- treatment history- adverse events
• Detailed case note review of all subjects discontinuing ABC
• Suspected ABC HSR rate with prospective B*5701 screening compared with historical ABC HSR rate (1/8/04 – 1/8/05)

Statistical Methods
• ABC HSR rates before and after the use of prospective HLA B*5701 testing: Chi-squared test with Yates’ correction
• ABC HSR rates between groups: Chi-squared test with Yates’ correction or Fisher’s exact test

Results
• 739 HLA B*5701 tests performed:
- 735 successful
- 4 test failures
• 54/735 tested HLA B*5701 positive = 7.3%
• 11/111 females HLA B*5701 positive = 9.9%#
• 43/624 males HLA B*5701 positive = 6.9%#

Conclusions
• The introduction of prospective HLA B*5701 screening reduced the incidence of ABC HSR in our cohort
• Despite testing HLA B*5701 negative, 4 individuals (2.0%) discontinued ABC for suspected HSR
![Page 19: HLA Testing: A Single Centre Experience Laura Waters, Andrea Gritz, Desmond Maitland, Brian Gazzard & Mark Nelson. Research Fellow PKR/SSR St. Stephen’s](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082821/5697bfd91a28abf838cafb79/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Conclusions
• 1 HLA B*5701 negative subject developed HSR with a positive SPP and systemic symptoms
• Our data highlight the importance of maintaining clinical vigilance when prescribing ABC regardless of the HLA B*5701 result
