Blood test could replace painful bone marrow biopsy for rare disease
NCT ID NCT07562542
First seen May 02, 2026 · Last updated Jun 19, 2026 · Updated 10 times
Summary
This study is testing whether a blood test can diagnose systemic mastocytosis, a rare disease where too many mast cells build up in the body. Currently, diagnosis requires a painful bone marrow biopsy. Researchers will compare the blood test results to bone marrow samples from 50 adult volunteers to see if the blood test is accurate enough to replace the biopsy.
