Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 34 words
The use of a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of a dsRNA-deficient disease state, provided that the disease state is not an HIV infection or a cancer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 34 words
The use of a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of a dsRNA-deficient disease state, provided that the disease state is not an HIV infection or a cancer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 24 words
The use of a dsRNA according to claim 1 wherein the dsRNA-deficient disease state is due to an immune disorder or a viral infection.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 19 words
The use of dsRNA according to claim 1 wherein the dsRNA-deficient disease state is due to chronic fatigue syndrome.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
