The CCP Antibody test, also known as the Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide test, is a blood test used to detect antibodies directed against cyclic citrullinated peptides. These antibodies are highly specific markers for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and may appear in the blood years before clinical symptoms develop. Detecting CCP antibodies helps in early diagnosis, monitoring disease progression, and guiding treatment decisions. A positive result, especially when combined with elevated rheumatoid factor, strongly indicates RA. Early detection through CCP testing allows for timely intervention, reducing joint damage and improving long-term outcomes.
