Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Presenting with at least one of the three criteria below as evidence of systemic mast cell activation:
  • Involvement of 2 or more organ systems, characterized by skin (pruritus, urticaria, flushing and angioedema), cardiovascular (tachycardia, syncope, and hypotension), gastrointestinal (diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and gastrointestinal cramping) or respiratory/naso-ocular (wheezing, conjunctival injection, and nasal stuffiness) AND serum basal tryptase levels ≥8 ng/ml. One of the organ systems must be the cardiovascular system.
  • Severe anaphylaxis (Ring and Messmer grading ≥II) due to Hymenoptera sting, regardless of serum basal tryptase levels.
  • Severe anaphylaxis (Ring and Messmer grading ≥II), with cardiovascular involvement and documented event-related tryptase elevation fitting the formula 20% of baseline plus 2 ng/ml evaluated in at least 1 event.

Exclusion criteria

  • Patient previously diagnosed with any of the following WHO systemic mastocytosis (SM) sub-classifications: mastocytosis in the skin, indolent SM, smoldering SM, SM with associated hematological neoplasm, aggressive SM, mast cell leukemia, mast cell sarcoma

Treatment and study plan

Screening

Other

After providing informed consent, relevant medical history data, and blood and buccal swab samples will be collected at a single visit from patients presenting with systemic mast cell activation symptoms

    Time frame: Day 1

Secondary outcomes

  1. Mean KIT D816V mutated allele fraction in peripheral blood

    Time frame: Day 1

  2. Proportion of patients with increased tryptase Alpha/ Beta 1 (TPSAB1) alpha-tryptase gene copy number (GCN) in buccal mucosa

    Time frame: Day 1
