Description

Note that the investigational product will be administered at a site outside of the U.S. which is not under FDA jurisdiction, and only non-treatment pre/post outcome assessments (e.g., cognitive assessments or blood sample collection) occur at the U.S. site.

Participants will take part in cognitive and health testing before and after administration of plasmid-delivered Klotho gene therapy. The method of administration will be subcutaneous injection into abdominal fat deposits. Klotho may improve cognitive function, kidney function, healthspan, and lifespan. Healthy volunteers will partake in a series of blood draws, health screenings, questionnaires, brain perfusion/function measures, and cognitive testing multiple times before and after the intervention.
