Abstract: Methods for treating Wilson Disease with bis-choline tetrathiomolybdate therapy are provided. The methods may include administering 15 mg or between 30 and 90 mg of bis-choline tetrathiomolybdate once daily to a patient exhibiting NCCcorrected, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), hemoglobin, platelets, or neutrophils levels meeting specified criteria. The methods may include modifying treatment by decreasing or increasing the daily dose of bis-choline tetrathiomolybdate or discontinuing treatment for a period of time.

Abstract: A method for producing a bundle of biopolymer fibers. Biopolymer is dissolved in acid in a closed container made of materials inert to the acid and to the collagen to form a biopolymer solution. The solution is stirred, then centrifuged to degas it. The degassed solution is put into syringes on a holder. The number of syringes equals the number of fibers in the bundle. The syringes are mounted in a rotatable holder. Essentially equal quantities of degassed solution are extruded from the syringes to produce fibers, which are gathered and fed into a formation buffer bath. The fibers are kept taught after extrusion and dehydrated in a dehydrating solution in a dehydrating bath. The fibers are wound a collector to collect the bundle.
