Interpretive Data

Anti-glycan serologic markers may serve as an aid in the diagnosis of Crohn disease (CD) and an indicator of disease prognosis. Anti-saccharomyces cerevisiae antibody (gASCA) has the highest diagnostic value and anti-chitobioside carbohydrate antibody (ACCA) has the highest association with more-aggressive disease. Both ACCA and gASCA are associated equally with the need for surgery. When found in combination, these markers have the best diagnostic potential. A combination of two or more of the four anti-glycan markers have a significant association with complications and the need for surgery than any single marker alone. A negative result does not rule out CD.

This test was developed and its performance characteristics determined by ARUP Laboratories. It has not been cleared or approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. This test was performed in a CLIA certified laboratory and is intended for clinical purposes.
