On September 8, 2026, Rentosertib, an AI-generated drug developed by InSight AI, was first introduced into human clinical trials. This drug is targeted at idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and aims to extend lifespan by delaying the aging process. A total of 43 patients participated in the trial. After 12 consecutive weeks of medication, the predicted age calculated based on cell, tissue, and organ functions decreased significantly, and all six “aging clock” measurements showed reduced predicted ages for the patients. One study noted that this was the first study to clearly demonstrate that predicting biological age can reduce it. Although the sample size was small and the drug was not tested in healthy populations, experts said this study provides a model for future research in longevity.
