Abstract EN
Background.
HLA-B∗38:02 has been shown to be associated with antithyroid drug-induced agranulocytosis in Asian patients.
Methods.
HLA-B∗38:02 was analyzed by sequence-based typing in 21 patients who developed antithyroid drug-induced agranulocytosis and in 81 controls.
Results.
Frequency of HLA-B∗38:02 was 52.4% in agranulocytosis patients compared to 3.7% in controls (OR = 28.6, 95% CI = 6.8–120.2).
Conclusions.
HLA-B∗38:02 is a significant risk factor for agranulocytosis in Kinh Vietnamese patients treated with antithyroid drug.
