The mRNA and cDNA are patentable, but why would you assume that means someone has no rights? Xenotransplantation is rare and risky, but has been taking place for over 60 years. These people haven't lost any rights while being somewhat transhuman.
Are you implying the patent owners now own these humans? The patents only provide them with manufacturing and sales exclusivity. I imagine if someone tried to extract the new DNA from their body to produce some kind of product they could sue you for that.
