The granted patent US12059453B2 outlines a method aimed at enhancing muscle regeneration to alleviate symptoms associated with various muscle disorders characterized by muscle degeneration. Central to this method is the administration of a specific Plasma Fraction, identified as plasma fraction IV-1 paste suspension, in an effective amount to promote muscle recovery. The claims detail that this method can be applied to subjects diagnosed with muscle disorders resulting from acute injuries, dystrophies, or other conditions such as muscle atrophy and weakness. Notably, the patent specifies that the method can be tailored to address specific types of dystrophies, including Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy, among others.

Additionally, the patent describes the use of a Pulse Dose dosing regimen for administering the Plasma Fraction, which may enhance the effectiveness of the treatment. The claims further encompass a broad range of muscle disorders, including those resulting from sports-related injuries and various neuromuscular conditions. The method not only aims to improve muscle regeneration but also focuses on reducing or potentially eliminating the symptoms associated with these disorders, thereby offering a therapeutic approach for individuals suffering from muscle degeneration.
