Genetic testing prevents abacavir hypersensitivity in HIV patients
The genetic risk of abacavir hypersensitivity in HIV patients can be established in whole blood samples using a new microarray based on EUROArray Direct technology. The DNA test identifies the presence of the HLAB* 57:01 allele, which is the main genetic factor associated with adverse reactions to abacavir-containing drugs. The EUROArray HLA-B*57:01 analysis is fast […]
