It is now known that there is a strong genetic association be-tween human leukocyte antigens and drug-induced SJS/TEN. Thesegenetic associations are not only drug and phenotypic specic, butare also ethnic specic as well. The aim of this review is to sum-marize existing epidemiological data on SJS/TEN within Southeast(SE) Asia.
Geography of SE Asia
SE Asia is a diverse regionmade up of 10member countries (Brunei,Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines,Thailand, Singapore, and Vietnam). It covers a land area of 4.5million km2 and has a population of approximately 600 millionpeople of diverse ethnicities.6 Many of the data on SJS/TEN in thisregion have been derived from publications originating fromMalaysia, Philippines, Singapore, and Thailand and these will besummarized in this review.

phenytoin (PHT; 9%), nonsteroidal anti-inammatory drugs (8%),lamotrigine (2%), phenobarbital (1%), and b-lactam antibiotics(13%). The distribution of reported cases and causal drugs aresummarized in Table 1 and Figure 1. High-risk drugs, as identied in
origin. However, such medications are poorly regulated and theconstituents of these medications are not always known. Comple-mentary medications have been associated with 4% of cases inSingapore and 5% of reported cases from Malaysia (Dr M.M. Tang,Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, personal communication) and reports ofthese medications being adulterated by phenylbutazone have beenreported.21,22
Occupational trigger
Occupational exposure to trichloroethylene has occasionally beenreported as a trigger of SJS/TEN and DRESS in SE Asia and Asia, withcases being reported in Singapore, Thailand, Philippines, Japan,Taiwan, and China.23e25 Trichloroethylene is an organic solvent thatis used widely as a degreasing solvent in developing countries.Typically, patients present with the cutaneous eruptions from 2weeks to 2months after occupational exposure. In the evaluation ofsome of these cases, environmental levels, urinary trichloroethy-lene concentrations, as well as airborne exposure concentrationswere found to be higher than the standard threshold limits.

Variations in SE Asia drug causality
CBZ and PHT induced SCAR
The proportion of CBZ and PHT-induced SJS/TEN in SE Asia issignicantly higher, accounting for 26% of all cases (Figure 1), asopposed to 12% in European populations.20 Although variations inclinical practice, prescribing patterns, and incidence of disease mayplay a role, it is believed that pharmacogenetic variations betweendifferent ethnicities is a major factor.
Complementary medications
The use of traditional/complementary medications such as tradi-tional Chinese medications and jamuda form of Indonesian/Malayherbal preparationdis widespread within the region and isculturally acceptable and perceived to be safe due to its herbalFigure 1 Distribution of StevenseJohnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, and assoinammatory drugs.Idiopathic cases
It is being increasingly recognized that a signicant proportion ofSJS/TEN are not drug related. From 15% to 25% of cases of SJS/TENhad no prior drug history or occurred in circumstances inwhich thedrug causality was deemed to be unlikely.2e20 In Singapore, about10% of SJS/TEN cases were not drug related. In a series of 106 pa-tients, there were three cases attributed to infections with myco-plasma, three cases were associated with systemic lupuserythematosus, and ve cases had no drug trigger.19 Similar pro-portions of non-drug-induced cases were also reported in thePhilippines (3/31).14
Pharmacogenetic epidemiology of SJS/TEN
Genetic susceptibility for SJS/TEN has been proposed. It has beenclaried that such genetic risks are specic for the type of reactionas well as for the drug and ethnicity. The pharmacogenetic risks ofSJS/TEN are best demonstrated in the models of HLA-B*1502 andHLA-B*5801 for CBZ and allopurinol respectively.26,27ciated causal drugs (according to published case series).

Since the initial study by Chung et al,26 which showed the strongassociation between HLA-B*1502 and SJS/TEN in Han Chinese inTaiwan, these results have been replicated in other Asian countriesincluding those within SE Asia such as Thailand,28,29 Malaysia,30
and Singapore (submitted for publication). In the original andfollow-up studies on Han Chinese in Taiwan, the odds ratio were2504 [95% condence interval (CI) 126e49,522] and 1357 (95% CI193e8838), respectively.26,31 In the other SE Asian populations,odds ratio were 16.2 (95% CI 4.6e62.0) for Malays in Malaysia and54.76 for Thais in Thailand (95% CI 14.6e205.1). The association inCaucasian populations is more tenuous. Lonjou et al32 evaluated 12patients with CBZ-induced SJS/TEN; only four patients carried theHLA-B*1502 allele and all had Asian ancestry. In Asian populations,the allele frequency of HLA-B*1502 is much higher compared toCaucasian populations (Table 2). This variation in allelic frequencymay, in part, explain the variation in incidence of carbamazepineinduced SJS/TEN in SE Asia and Taiwan compared to otherpopulations.
Allopurinol
The link between HLA-B*5801 and allopurinol SCAR was rst re-ported byHung et al,27 who demonstrated the presence of the allelein 100% (51/51) of patients who developed allopurinol SCAR butonly in 15% (20/135) of controls. Similar ndings have been seen inThai populations where 100% (27/27) of patients with allopurinolSCAR carried the HLA-B*5801 allele whereas only 13% (7/54) of thecontrols carried the allele.33 A meta-analysis of nine studies thatanalyzed associations studies of HLA-B*5801 and SCAR (four
