Patent No. EP3199172 (titled "Dosing Regimen For Multiple Sclerosis") was filed by Yeda Research on Aug 19, 2010. The application was issued on Jul 11, 2018.
Reducing the frequency of subcutaneous glatiramer acetate injections from daily to three times a week for treating relapsing multiple sclerosis to improve tolerability without compromising efficacy. The lower frequency regimen is three injections over seven days with at least one day between each injection. This reduces post-injection reactions and improves patient compliance compared to daily injections.
