Abstract Background Several type B adverse drug reactions (ADRs), especially severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs), are associated with particular human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genotypes. However, pre‐stored HLA information obtained from other clinical workups has not been used to prevent ADRs. We aimed to simulate the preemptive use of pre‐stored HLA information in electronic medical records to evaluate whether this information can prevent ADRs. Methods We analyzed the incidence and the risk of ADRs for selected HLA alleles (HLA‐B*57:01, HLA‐B*58:01, HLA‐A*31:01, HLA‐B*15:02, HLA‐B*15:11, HLA‐B*13:01, HLA‐B*59:01, and HLA‐A*32:01) and seven drugs (abacavir, allopurinol, carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, dapsone, methazolamide, and vancomycin) using pre‐stored HLA information of transplant patients based on the Pharmacogenomics Knowledge Base guidelines and experts' consensus. Results Among 11,988 HLA‐tested transplant patients, 4092 (34.1%) had high‐risk HLA alleles, 4583 (38.2%) were prescribed risk drugs, and 580 (4.8%) experienced type B ADRs. Patients with HLA‐B*58:01 had a significantly higher incidence of type B ADR and SCARs associated with allopurinol use than that of patients without HLA‐B*58:01 (17.2% vs. 11.9%, odds ratio [OR] 1.53 [95% confidence interval {CI} 1.09–2.13], p = 0.001, 2.3% versus 0.3%, OR 7.13 [95% CI 2.19–22.69], p |
