Item Association of Liver Injury From Specific Drugs, or Groups of Drugs, With Polymorphisms in HLA and Other Genes in a Genome-Wide Association Study(Elsevier, 2017-04) Nicoletti, Paola; Aithal, Guruprasad P.; Bjornsson, Einar S.; Andrade, Raul J.; Sawle, Ashley; Arrese, Marco; Barnhart, Huiman X.; Bondon-Guitton, Emmanuelle; Hayashi, Paul H.; Bessone, Fernando; Carvajal, Alfonso; Cascorbi, Ingolf; Cirulli, Elizabeth T.; Chalasani, Naga; Conforti, Anita; Coulthard, Sally A.; Daly, Mark J.; Day, Christopher P.; Dillon, John F.; Fontana, Robert J.; Grove, Jane I.; Hallberg, Pär; Hernández, Nelia; Ibáñez, Luisa; Kullak-Ublick, Gerd A.; Laitinen, Tarja; Larrey, Dominique; Lucena, M. Isabel; Maitland-van der Zee, Anke H.; Martin, Jennifer H.; Molokhia, Mariam; Pirmohamed, Munir; Powell, Elizabeth E.; Qin, Shengying; Serrano, Jose; Stephens, Camilla; Stolz, Andrew; Wadelius, Mia; Watkins, Paul B.; Floratos, Aris; Shen, Yufeng; Nelson, Matthew R.; Urban, Thomas J.; Daly, Ann K.; International Drug-Induced Liver Injury Consortium; Drug-Induced Liver Injury Network Investigators; International Serious Adverse Events Consortium; Medicine, School of MedicineBACKGROUND & AIMS: We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to identify genetic risk factors for drug-induced liver injury (DILI) from licensed drugs without previously reported genetic risk factors. METHODS: We performed a GWAS of 862 persons with DILI and 10,588 population-matched controls. The first set of cases was recruited before May 2009 in Europe (n = 137) and the United States (n = 274). The second set of cases were identified from May 2009 through May 2013 from international collaborative studies performed in Europe, the United States, and South America. For the GWAS, we included only cases with patients of European ancestry associated with a particular drug (but not flucloxacillin or amoxicillin-clavulanate). We used DNA samples from all subjects to analyze HLA genes and single nucleotide polymorphisms. After the discovery analysis was concluded, we validated our findings using data from 283 European patients with diagnosis of DILI associated with various drugs. RESULTS: We associated DILI with rs114577328 (a proxy for A*33:01 a HLA class I allele; odds ratio [OR], 2.7; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.9-3.8; P = 2.4 × 10-8) and with rs72631567 on chromosome 2 (OR, 2.0; 95% CI, 1.6-2.5; P = 9.7 × 10-9). 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.Item Identification of Reduced ERAP2 Expression and a Novel HLA Allele as Components of a Risk Score for Susceptibility to Liver Injury Due to Amoxicillin-Clavulanate(Elsevier, 2023) Nicoletti, Paola; Dellinger, Andrew; Li, Yi Ju; Barnhart, Huiman X.; Chalasani, Naga; Fontana, Robert J.; Odin, Joseph A.; Serrano, Jose; Stolz, Andrew; Etheridge, Amy S.; Innocenti, Federico; Govaere, Olivier; Grove, Jane I.; Stephens, Camilla; Aithal, Guruprasad P.; Andrade, Raul J.; Bjornsson, Einar S.; Daly, Ann K.; Lucena, M. Isabel; Watkins, Paul B.; Drug-Induced Liver Injury Network (DILIN); International Drug-Induced Liver Injury Consortium (iDILIC); Prospective European Drug-Induced Liver Injury (Pro-Euro DILI) Investigators; Medicine, School of MedicineBackground & aims: Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) due to amoxicillin-clavulanate (AC) has been associated with HLA-A∗02:01, HLA-DRB1∗15:01, and rs2476601, a missense variant in PTPN22. The aim of this study was to identify novel risk factors for AC-DILI and to construct a genetic risk score (GRS). Methods: Transcriptome-wide association study and genome-wide association study analyses were performed on 444 AC-DILI cases and 10,397 population-based controls of European descent. Associations were confirmed in a validation cohort (n = 133 cases and 17,836 population-based controls). Discovery and validation AC-DILI cases were also compared with 1358 and 403 non-AC-DILI cases. Results: Transcriptome-wide association study revealed a significant association of AC-DILI risk with reduced liver expression of ERAP2 (P = 3.7 × 10-7), coding for an aminopeptidase involved in antigen presentation. The lead eQTL single nucleotide polymorphism, rs1363907 (G), was associated with AC-DILI risk in the discovery (odds ratio [OR], 1.68; 95% CI, 1.23-1.66; P = 1.7 × 10-7) and validation cohorts (OR, 1.2; 95% CI, 1.04-2.05; P = .03), following a recessive model. We also identified HLA-B∗15:18 as a novel AC-DILI risk factor in both discovery (OR, 4.19; 95% CI, 2.09-8.36; P = 4.9 × 10-5) and validation (OR, 7.78; 95% CI, 2.75-21.99; P = .0001) cohorts. GRS, incorporating rs1363907, rs2476601, HLA-B∗15:18, HLA-A∗02:01, and HLA-DRB1∗15:01, was highly predictive of AC-DILI risk when cases were analyzed against both general population and non-AC-DILI control cohorts. GRS was the most significant predictor in a regression model containing known AC-DILI clinical risk characteristics and significantly improved the predictive model. Conclusions: We identified novel associations of AC-DILI risk with ERAP2 low expression and with HLA-B∗15:18. GRS based on the 5 risk variants may assist AC-DILI causality assessment and risk management.
