New study screens for hidden genetic marker in mysterious mast cell disorders
NCT ID NCT07143669
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 13, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study aims to find how common the KIT D816V mutation is in people with suspected clonal mast cell disease. Researchers will collect blood samples from 450 participants and test them using two sensitive methods. The results may improve understanding and diagnosis of these rare conditions.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could help doctors better identify which patients have a specific genetic mutation linked to mast cell diseases, potentially guiding future treatments.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational screening study, not a treatment trial. It will not directly improve health, and results may not apply to all patients or lead to new therapies.
This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Key Inclusion Criteria: * Cohort 1 participants must meet inclusion criteria for either SMAC-A or SMAC-B: 1\. SMAC-A * Documented anaphylaxis due to Hymenoptera venom with cardiovascular symptoms or * History of at least one event of anaphylaxis as determined by the Investigator's clinical assessment and judgment based on available medical history, clinical presentation, and supporting documentation without a clearly identifiable trigger(s) or allergen(s) (otherwise idiopathic anaphylaxis) OR * SMAC-AGS: History of anaphylaxis after eating mammalian meat (e.g. pork, beef) AND history of elevated alpha-gal (galactose-alpha 1, 3 galactose) serum IgE as determined by the Investigator's clinical assessment and supporting medical history documentation 2. SMAC-B * Episodic or recurrent signs and symptoms consistent with mast cell activation without known triggers or allergens in at least 2 of the following organ systems: skin, respiratory/naso-ocular, gastrointestinal tract, or cardiovascular. * Any clinical response on one or more optimally dosed therapies intended to mitigate mast cell mediators, as determined by the Investigator. * Cohort 2 participants must have confirmed, known diagnosis of 1 of the following criteria: 1. Either hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome or documented history of hypermobility spectrum disorder. 2. Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome with one or more systemic symptoms. 3. Early onset (≤50 years old) osteoporosis or osteopenia. * Cohort 3 participants must have documented diagnosis of 1 of the following, according to World Health Organization 5th edition criteria: chronic myelomonocytic leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm not otherwise specified. * Cohort 4 participants must have documented diagnosis of Mastocytosis in the Skin (MIS) with previously undetected KIT D816V mutation in peripheral blood (PB) or bone marrow (BM) OR Diagnosed cutaneous mastocytosis or physical examination findings indicative of "cutaneous mastocytosis". Key Exclusion Criteria: * Participants previously diagnosed with any of the following: 1. Monoclonal mast cell activation syndrome with a known KIT mutation 2. Any subtype of systemic mastocytosis 3. Mast cell sarcoma * Cohort 2 only: Osteopenia or osteoporosis attributed to known genetic, endocrine, nutritional, or other medical conditions. Note: Additional protocol-defined criteria apply.
