Application Number:	US18/392,545
Patent Claims:	1. A method of administering a long-acting compstatin analog (LACA) to a human subject, the method comprising administering a dose of said LACA to an eye of the subject by intravitreal injection, wherein the amount of said dose is between about 15 mg and 20 mg, wherein the LACA comprises two compstatin analog moieties, wherein each compstatin analog moiety comprises a cyclic peptide having an amino acid sequence as set forth in SEO ID NO: 28, wherein the LACA has the structure: and wherein the n results in a PEG having an average molecular weight of about 40kD. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the amount of said dose is about 15 mg. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the dose comprises the LACA at a concentration of from about 100 to about 200 mg/mL. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein the dose comprises the LACA at a concentration of about 150 mg/mL. 5. The method of claim 2, wherein the dose comprises the LACA at a concentration of about 150 mg/mL in a volume of 100 microliters. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein the dose is administered using a thin wall needle. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the dose is administered using a 29 gauge thin wall needle. 8. The method of claim 6, wherein the dose is administered using a 27 gauge needle. 9. The method of claim 1, comprising administering a composition comprising the dose of said LACA, wherein the composition further comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the pharmaceutically acceptable carrier is water.
