What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study is testing whether a simple blood test can accurately diagnose systemic mastocytosis, a rare disease where too many mast cells build up in the body. Currently, diagnosis requires an invasive bone marrow biopsy. The blood test looks for a specific genetic mutation (KIT-D816V) using a highly sensitive method called ddPCR. If it works, it could make diagnosis easier and less painful for patients.

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 could replace invasive bone marrow biopsies with a simple blood test for diagnosing systemic mastocytosis.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage observational study with only 50 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The blood test might not be as accurate as the standard biopsy.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study population consists of two main cohorts: adult patients presenting with symptoms indicative of suspected systemic mastocytosis (SM) who require diagnostic evaluation, and a control cohort of adult patients diagnosed with non-SM hematologic diseases. Participants will be recruited from the clinical setting during their standard care visits.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age \>= 18 years. * Presenting with recurrent idiopathic anaphylactic reactions (e.g., hypotension, syncope), mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS)-related symptoms (flushing, abdominal pain, diarrhea), urticaria pigmentosa, or histopathological findings of mast cell aggregation. * No prior treatment with KIT inhibitors or drugs affecting mast cell function (e.g., corticosteroids, interferon, immunosuppressants). * Willingness to undergo bone marrow examination and peripheral blood KIT-D816V testing, consent to biannual clinical follow-up for 6 months, and signing of the informed consent form. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients from whom specimens cannot be obtained (e.g., due to comorbidities or coagulation abnormalities preventing sufficient peripheral blood collection or bone marrow biopsy). * Prior diagnosis of other clonal hematologic diseases (e.g., other types of leukemia or lymphoid malignancies) that could interfere with the specificity of the KIT-D816V mutation assessment. * Treatment with targeted KIT drugs (e.g., imatinib, avapritinib) within the last 3 months. * Systemic corticosteroid, interferon, or immunosuppressive therapy within the last 1 month. * Refusal to participate or inability to complete follow-up due to severe comorbidities or other personal reasons.
