Ferhan Qureshi, SVP – Biomarker R&D, Octave Bioscience, Menlo Park, CA, discusses the MOVING-MS study, in which the Octave precision care solution was used to monitor patients with relapsing/remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). This system uses a multifaceted approach to characterize the biological, imaging, and clinical trajectories of people with MS, aiming to better inform clinical decision making. In a series of patients enrolled in MOVING-MS, use of the precision care tool was able to capture clinically actionable events in between clinic visits, informing treatment course modification or continuation. Additionally, disease activity scores, calculated based on an extensive protein biomarker panel, were sensitive to symptom change and treatment within a short time interval. Dr Qureshi also mentions an ongoing assessment of physician satisfaction scores and healthcare utilization costs associated with the Octave platform within MOVING-MS. This interview took place during the annual ACTRIMS Forum 2024.
