Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This trial is designed to study the effects of monthly transfusions of young healthy male donor plasma on biological age as assessed by DNA methylation levels, and changes in cognitive, renal, and pulmonary function, muscle strength, telomere length, testosterone, estrogen, DHEAS, IGF-1, high resolution C-Reactive protein, and expression of P16INK4a in peripheral blood T lymphocytes and skin biopsies.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Aging is a process for which there is no cure. Plasma transfusions, based on extensive animal studies, have the potential to reverse many, systemic age-related changes in the human body as well as age related chronic diseases. This is a non-randomized, uncontrolled phase I/II study to study the effects of monthly transfusions of young healthy male donor plasma on biological age as assessed by DNA methylation levels, and changes in cognitive, renal, and pulmonary function, muscle strength, telomere length, testosterone, estrogen, DHEAS, IGF-1, high resolution C-Reactive protein, and expression of p16INK4a in peripheral blood T lymphocytes and skin biopsies. To determine the safety and tolerability of monthly, 2-unit transfusions of young (\<25 years of age) healthy male donor plasma for 6 months in patients older then 40 years of age.

* Current clinically significant viral infection;
* Major surgery within four weeks prior to Screening;
* Any contraindication to monthly plasma transfusions, including but not limited to:
* History of significant transfusion complications;

* Treatment with another investigational drug or participation in another interventional clinical trial within 3 months of Screening;
* Treatment with any human blood product, including IV immunoglobulin, during the 6 months prior to Screening or during the trial;
* Pregnant or lactating;
