Abstract

Among 34,351 patients living with human immunodeficiency virus with available HLA-B*57:01 included in the Dat'AIDS cohort, 194 patients (0.56%) had a history of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) and 1,746 (5.08%) were carriers of HLA-B*57:01. The frequency of HLA-B*57:01 was similar among patients with history of PML compared with patients without a history of PML (6.19% [95% confidence interval, CI 2.8%-9.6%] vs. 5.08% [95% CI 4.8%-5.3%]; p = .48). Among patients with PML, clinical and biological characteristics at PML diagnosis and the PML outcome were not different according to HLA-B*57:01 status.
