Excited to be working with the HUNT Biobank and Age Labs as we expand BioAge’s platform to better understand aging biology through longitudinal human data. By uncovering new targets, we aim to develop therapies to treat/prevent chronic disease to improve healthspan for patients.
BioAge is excited to kick off a new initiative with Norway’s HUNT Biobank - one of Europe's most comprehensive population health studies - to map how molecular changes across decades shape healthy aging. https://t.co/blfQtoXlad Through our collaboration with Norwegian

Happy to announce that we are working with Eli Lilly and Lilly Chorus on an exciting clinical trial in obesity, where effective treatments can directly improve health in an aging population and also decrease the incidence of a variety of age-related diseases linked to obesity.
We are pleased to announce plans to initiate a Ph2 trial of our drug azelaprag co-administered with tirzepatide for treatment of obesity, in collaboration with @EliLillyandCo's Chorus organization, to start in mid-2024. https://t.co/Oi5bLPCX8h Keep reading to learn more (🧵1/7)

So happy to share results from our Ph1b trial of BGE-105 showing protection against muscle atrophy. This also validates BioAge's platform, where BGE-105's target was linked to longevity and preserved physical function with aging. This has been a huge team effort. Thank you all!
BioAge is pleased to announce positive topline Phase 1b data showing that our apelin receptor agonist BGE-105 prevented muscle atrophy in healthy volunteers aged ≥65 years on bed rest. https://t.co/yFMUZpeqwy Keep reading to learn why we’re so excited about this. (🧵 1/6)

Really looking forward to doing some great science with Karl @karltk and Arne at @age_labs that will move the field forward.
Exclusive access to data from a European aging biobank — via our new partnership with @age_labs — will accelerate BioAge’s ability to discover and target the causes of aging with our diverse and growing portfolio of drugs. https://t.co/joUVxswBCD

I had a wonderful time leading this discussion around clinical development strategy in aging. It was great to hear different perspectives from Joan, Jamie, and Jimmy about development for age-related indications—and to feel their ongoing enthusiasm for the field.
BioAge COO Dr. Eric Morgen leading a panel at @longevityleader Congress today. The wide-ranging conversation spanned indications & endpoints for aging drugs, interactions with regulators, and the “existential risk” of trial failures. Thanks to our marvelous panelists!
