Impact of HLA-DQA1*05 Genotype in Immunogenicity and Failure to Treatment with Tumour Necrosis Factor-alpha Antagonists in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: HLA-DQA1*05 carriage has been associated with an increased risk of immunogenicity in patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases treated with tumour necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-a] antagonists. Results have shown an inconsistent association with a loss of response [LOR] in patients with inflammatory bowel disease [IBD], which could be modified when using proactive optimisation and association...
