Anti-CCP

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common systemic autoimmune disease that affects 0.5-1.0% of the world’s population. RA is characterized by chronic inflammation of the synovium which can lead to progressive joint destruction, disability and mortality.

An anti-CCP test is able to detect autoantibodies against citrullinated proteins which have relatively high sensitivity for rheumatoid arthritis and extremely high specificity (around 90%).

Its high specificity explains why the anti-CCP test has become an important part of the process of diagnosing RA.
