Exclude criteriaPatients who meet any of the following criteria are not included. 1) Disease or (including laboratory values) that may be influenced by the interpretation of data or safety, or the protocol evaluation cannot be performed safely, as the investigator or co-author decides Patients with clinically significant abnormalities. 2) Patients who have significant dehydration as judged by the principal investigator or co-investigator 3) Patients with pericardial fluid, ascites and pleural effusion 4) Patients participating in another clinical trial within 30 days before obtaining consent 5) Clinical signs seen at initial screening are the final stage of Werner syndrome progression, and safe completion of the study and patients judged to be difficult to assess, including: - Patients who received continuous or intermittent home oxygen therapy for 6 months before obtaining consent - Patients who received at least 2 hospitalizations for pneumonia during the 12 months prior to obtaining consent - Patients who show at least 10% net weight loss and do not recover as stated on the chart.
