Text Correction.
In the published article, there was an error. Several “rs” numbers were written incorrectly.
A correction has been made to Abstract. This sentence previously stated:
“A custom assay for rs106235 identified HLA-A*31:01 with 100% sensitivity and 95% specificity. The slight reduction in specificity for the latter was owing to another haplotype (HLA-A*33:03) also being detected. While any positive call using the rs106235 assay could therefore be further investigated, as the presence of the HLA-A*31:01 haplotype confers adverse drug reaction risk, the absence of false negatives (indexed by sensitivity) is more important than false positives.”
The corrected sentence appears below:
“A custom assay for rs1061235 identified HLA-A*31:01 with 100% sensitivity and 95% specificity. The slight reduction in specificity for the latter was owing to another haplotype (HLA-A*33:03) also being detected. While any positive call using the rs1061235 assay could therefore be further investigated, as the presence of the HLA-A*31:01 haplotype confers adverse drug reaction risk, the absence of false negatives (indexed by sensitivity) is more important than false positives.”
A correction has been made to Results, TaqMan Assay Analytical Validation, Paragraph 3. This sentence previously stated:
“The assay targeting rs17179220, C__33414939_10, identified HLA-A*31:01 with 100% sensitivity and 100% specificity.”
The corrected sentence appears below:
“The assay targeting rs17179220, C__33415939_10, identified HLA-A*31:01 with 100% sensitivity and 100% specificity.”
A correction has been made to Discussion, Paragraph 4. This sentence previously stated:
“Assay C__33414939_10 for rs17179220 had 100% sensitivity and specificity for HLA-A*31:01.”
The corrected sentence appears below:
“Assay C__33415939_10 for rs17179220 had 100% sensitivity and specificity for HLA-A*31:01.”
The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
