Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibody (Anti-CCP Ab) ( IA0028 )

Description

Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibody (Anti-CCP Ab) test detects highly specific autoantibodies directed against citrullinated peptides and is a key marker for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Anti-CCP antibodies often appear early in the disease course—even before radiologic changes—and are associated with more aggressive joint damage and erosive disease.

Measured commonly by ELISA/CLIA, Anti-CCP testing supports early diagnosis, prognosis assessment, and differentiation of RA from other inflammatory arthritides. When interpreted with rheumatoid factor (RF), ESR/CRP, and clinical findings, Anti-CCP provides strong diagnostic confidence and helps guide timely disease-modifying therapy.
