Background The usefulness of the drug patch testing for Stevens–Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) is still controversial. Recent studies have shown that HLA-B*1502 is strongly associated with CBZ-SJS/TEN in Chinese and Southeast Asian populations.
Objective To evaluate the usefulness of patch tests for patients with carbamazepine (CBZ)-induced SJS, TEN and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) and the cross-reactivity in patch tests among the aromatic antiepileptic drugs.
Methods We measure the frequency of positive patch test reactions and cross-sensitivity to structure-related aromatic anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) for patients after ...
