Brief Summary

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

ICOPE could constitute the reference model of care for healthy aging. More specifically, our hypothesis is that the intervention implemented in ICOPE may directly or indirectly prevent immuno-senescence, the loss of mobility and the cognitive decline. In future Geroscience clinical trials, ICOPE-Intense could become a benchmark to reduce the rate of aging with a strong non-pharmacological intervention and state a reference intervention to compare with new gerotherapeutic drugs.

Detailed Description

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

In this pilot study, the concept of prevention proposed by the WHO, for everyday life is taken to the extreme to be able to judge what is the maximum effect size on key functions of aging (mobility, cognition, immunity) that can be expected and achieved by a nonpharmacological intervention. The results obtained will constitute reference data for the future, during the investigation on new gerotherapeutic drugs or other nonpharmacological interventions. Taking into account the hypothesis of a synergistic effect between Ketones and non-pharmacological intervention, the intense ICOPE program makes it possible to study the effect size of Ketones under optimal experimental conditions.
