dc.description.abstractABSTRACT: Introduction: Treatment of Chagas disease frequently causes distress to patients due to a high incidence of adverse effects. Different preemptive tests have been researched to prevent these effects and to allow focus to be given to certain predisposed patients. Benznidazole is the most prescribed Chagas disease treatment in Spain. In this work, we analyzed the genetic markers HLA-B*35 allele group and HLA-B*35:05 allele specifically, as well as an allergy patch test, as benznidazole’s most frequent adverse effects are cutaneous. Methods: HLA-B intermediate-resolution genotyping was performed followed by a high-resolution level analysis. Cutaneous allergies were tested using strips impregnated with a mixture of benznidazole and placed on the upper back of patients before starting treatment. Results: In our sample of more than 400 patients, there was almost no relationship between any kind of side effect and either of the HLA-B alleles studied. The patch testing was quickly discarded as a preemptive test due to its low sensitivity (16.7%). Conclusion: In conclusion, we were unable to replicate and corroborate genetic markers identified by other groups and there is currently no test that can anticipate the adverse effects of benznidazole, therefore, more investigation should be carried out in this field.es
dc.description.abstractRESUMEN: Introducción: El tratamiento de la enfermedad de Chagas causa frecuentemente angustia a los pacientes debido a su alta incidencia de reacciones adversas. Se han investigado algunos test para anticiparnos y poner especial foco en aquellos pacientes susceptibles de sufrir estos efectos. Benznidazol es el tratamiento más prescrito para la enfermedad de Chagas en España. En este trabajo hemos analizado la familia alélica HLA-B*35, y específicamente HLA-B*35:05, así como un test alérgico epicutáneo (patch test), teniendo en cuenta que el efecto adverso más frecuente son reacciones cutáneas. Métodos: El HLA-B de los pacientes se genotipó con resolución intermedia y después se analizó mediante alta resolución. Antes del tratamiento, se testó una posible hipersensibilidad cutánea mediante tiras impregnadas con una solución de benznidazol adheridas en la parte alta de la espalda de los pacientes. Resultados: En nuestra muestra de más de 400 pacientes no se detectó relación entre ningún tipo de efecto adverso y ningún alelo de HLA-B estudiado. La prueba de patch test se canceló al poco de empezar el estudio debido a su baja sensibilidad (16,7%).es
