5. Subject has Stage 1 to 3 EDB muscle preservation determined by MRI.
6. Subject has a forced vital capacity ≥ 25% confirmed within 3 months from Day One.

4. Subject has evidence of nocturnal hypoventilation (mean oxygen saturation at night of ≤ 94%) confirmed via overnight sleep study at Visit One (as screening procedure) or within 3 months of Visit One by overnight sleep study.
5. Subject has severe respiratory insufficiency defined by the need for invasive or non-invasive mechanical ventilation (does not include nocturnal ventilatory support).

10. Subject has had surgery within 3 months of study entry or planned for anytime during study.
11. Subject has active significant illness at time of study entry.
12. Subject has is unable to undergo MRI testing (viz., has metal implants).

14. Subject has any known allergies to products likely to be used in the study (viz.,antiseptics, anaesthetics).
