ANEW's preliminary data indicates that maintaining high Klotho levels in the body could result in longer, healthier lives.

ANEW also intends to explore other age-related disorders associated with reduced Klotho levels.

ANEW's development plans encompass FDA Clinical Trials, Klotho Diagnostics, and Age-Related Disorders. Dr. Shalom Hirshman, M.D., Chief Medical Advisor and Board member, expressed that ANEW is well-positioned to significantly impact the treatment of ALS, Alzheimer's, and other neurodegenerative disorders.

Even tech companies like Synchron Inc., backed by Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates, are entering the fray with plans to treat Parkinson's and epilepsy.
今年6月,Eli Lilly收到了针对阿尔茨海默病的Kisunla疗法的FDA批准。此外,他们还通过加入一个临床前ALS、痴呆前途的其它神经产品,扩大了他们的神经治疗项目。甚至像由Jeff Bezos和Bill Gates支持的Synchron公司这样的科技公司也计划治疗帕金森病和癫痫。
