- Data underscore the potential to leverage comprehensive epigenomic profiling from a simple blood test to explore central nervous system disease biology
BOSTON, Sept. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Precede Biosciences, a company impacting the development and use of precision medicines with a first-in-class comprehensive epigenomic liquid biopsy platform, today shared the company’s scientific poster presentation from the European Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis (ECTRIMS) 2024 Annual Meeting taking place from September 18 to 20, 2024 in Copenhagen, Denmark.
“Gaining patient-specific insight into CNS immunopathology from a simple blood test is a much sought after goal in the management of MS patients as such insight could ultimately be used to guide therapeutic decisions,” said Laura Airas, MD, PhD, Professor of Neuroimmunology at the University of Turku, Finland. “Our exploratory study highlights the potential for comprehensive epigenomic profiling to reveal MS-specific biology, including peripheral immune signals that may associate with PET imaging of CNS inflammation.”
“These exploratory data in MS add to the growing scientific evidence supporting the potential of our platform to elucidate disease-specific biology that may be relevant to drug development efforts,” said Carl Barrett, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer of Precede Bio.
Data presented at the ECTRIMS 2024 Annual Meeting can be found in the presentations section of the company website and below:
