Highly specific test for rheumatoid arthritis — positive results strongly support RA diagnosis. The Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide (Anti-CCP) antibody test is one of the most specific markers for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), with a specificity of approximately 95%. Unlike rheumatoid factor (RF), which can be elevated in many conditions, a positive anti-CCP result is highly indicative of RA and can appear years before symptoms develop. This test is invaluable for early diagnosis, allowing treatment to begin before joint damage occurs. **Clinical use:** Inflammation and autoimmune biomarkers help identify systemic inflammation, suspected autoimmune disease, and disease activity in known autoimmune conditions. ## Who should order it? Anyone with unexplained joint pain, rashes, fatigue, or recurrent fevers; patients with known autoimmune disease monitoring flares; or individuals with strong family history of autoimmune conditions. ## Biomarkers measured - Anti-CCP Antibodies ## Price by lab | Lab | Test price | All-in (with $6 fee) | Notes | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Quest Diagnostics | $32.99 | $38.99 | Choose at checkout; walk-in patient service centers nationwide (not NY/NJ) | | Labcorp | $32.99 | $38.99 | Choose at checkout; walk-in patient service centers nationwide (not NY/NJ) | Rhode Island is not served.
