Approved Human Study Sets Up Pivotal Test for Aging Theory from Harvard’s David Sinclair

In a major proving ground test for the longevity field, the FDA has given its approval for a human trial for a gene therapy attempting a near-total rejuvenating reset of cells.

The FDA has greenlighted Life Biosciences’ first human trial testing whether their gene therapy can confer a near-total rejuvenating reset of cells.

Clinical Trials

Model: 20-month-old male C57BL/6 mice 
Dosage: 3,000 to 4,000 µg of ouabain dissolved in 27,000 to 36,000 µL of PBS injected twice per week every third week over a period of three months

AI Analyzes Millions of Molecular Profiles to Uncover Overlooked Aging Interventions

Harvard and MIT scientists analyze decades of publicly available molecular studies with a new AI platform to uncover hundreds of previously hidden anti-aging strategies, like the drug ouabain.

A new AI platform has uncovered hundreds of pro-longevity agents based on the reanalysis of millions of mouse and human gene expression samples.

Aging &amp; Longevity

Participants: Healthy middle-aged to older adults (average age: ~53 years)
Dosage: 1,000 mg/day of urolithin A for 28 days

Supplementing healthy adults with urolithin A —a compound produced by our gut bacteria— counters signs of age-related immune system decline.
