DETECTION OF HUMAN LEUKOCYTE ANTIGEN-A*32:01 IN CONNECTION WITH DETERMINING DRUG REACTION WITH EOSINOPHILIA AND SYSTEMIC SYMPTOMS (DRESS) AND METHODS OF TREATING BACTERIAL INFECTION IN A SUBJECT WITH VANCOMYCIN-INDUCED DRESS

摘要

Methods of detecting a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A*32:01 allele in a subject as disclosed are useful, for example, to determine whether the subject is at risk for developing or has vancomycin-induced drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS). Methods of treating bacterial infection in a subject with vancomycin-induced DRESS are also disclosed.
