    (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.

    BACKGROUND & 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.

    New-onset and relapsed liver diseases following COVID-19 vaccination: a systematic review
    (BMC, 2022-10-13) Alhumaid, Saad; Al Mutair, Abbas; Rabaan, Ali A.; ALShakhs, Fatemah M.; Choudhary, Om Prakash; Yong, Shin Jie; Nainu, Firzan; Khan, Amjad; Muhammad, Javed; Alhelal, Fadil; Al Khamees, Mohammed Hussain; Alsouaib, Hussain Ahmed; Al Majhad, Ahmed Salman; Al-Tarfi, Hassan Redha; ALyasin, Ali Hussain; Alatiyyah, Yaqoub Yousef; Alsultan, Ali Ahmed; Alessa, Mohammed Essa; Alessa, Mustafa Essa; Alissa, Mohammed Ahmed; Alsayegh, Emad Hassan; Alshakhs, Hassan N.; Al Samaeel, Haidar Abdullah; AlShayeb, Rugayah Ahmed; Alnami, Dalal Ahmed; Alhassan, Hussain Ali; Alabdullah, Abdulaziz Abdullah; Alhmed, Ayat Hussain; AlDera, Faisal Hussain; Hajissa, Khalid; Al-Tawfiq, Jaffar A.; Al-Omari, Awad; Medicine, School of Medicine
    Background: Liver diseases post-COVID-19 vaccination is extremely rare but can occur. A growing body of evidence has indicated that portal vein thrombosis, autoimmune hepatitis, raised liver enzymes and liver injuries, etc., may be potential consequence of COVID-19 vaccines. Objectives: To describe the results of a systematic review for new-onset and relapsed liver disease following COVID-19 vaccination. Methods: For this systematic review, we searched Proquest, Medline, Embase, PubMed, CINAHL, Wiley online library, Scopus and Nature through the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta Analyses PRISMA guideline for studies on the incidence of new onset or relapsed liver diseases post-COVID-19 vaccination, published from December 1, 2020 to July 31, 2022, with English language restriction. Results: Two hundred seventy-five cases from one hundred and eighteen articles were included in the qualitative synthesis of this systematic review. Autoimmune hepatitis (138 cases) was the most frequent pathology observed post-COVID-19 vaccination, followed by portal vein thrombosis (52 cases), raised liver enzymes (26 cases) and liver injury (21 cases). Other cases include splanchnic vein thrombosis, acute cellular rejection of the liver, jaundice, hepatomegaly, acute hepatic failure and hepatic porphyria. Mortality was reported in any of the included cases for acute hepatic failure (n = 4, 50%), portal vein thrombosis (n = 25, 48.1%), splanchnic vein thrombosis (n = 6, 42.8%), jaundice (n = 1, 12.5%), raised liver enzymes (n = 2, 7.7%), and autoimmune hepatitis (n = 3, 2.2%). Most patients were easily treated without any serious complications, recovered and did not require long-term hepatic therapy. Conclusion: Reported evidence of liver diseases post-COIVD-19 vaccination should not discourage vaccination against this worldwide pandemic. The number of reported cases is relatively very small in relation to the hundreds of millions of vaccinations that have occurred and the protective benefits offered by COVID-19 vaccination far outweigh the risks.
