Getting older affects every part of our health. As we age, our bodies gradually work less efficiently, making us more tired, less able to bounce back from illness or injury, and more likely to develop health problems that shorten our healthy years. This happens because our bodies become less effective at repairing and maintaining themselves over time, leading to accumulated wear and tear on our cells and organs.
Common signs of aging include a weakened immune system, and loss of muscle strength—both of which can reduce our quality of life and the number of years we stay healthy and active.
Novatrials is looking for healthy adult volunteers to join a clinical study of a potential new treatment focused on improving immune and muscle strength to promote healthy aging and support overall physical and cognitive function.
You may be eligible to join the study if you are:
- aged between 19 and 80 years, especially those aged 65+
- in good health with a BMI between 18 and 40 (calculate your BMI here: https://www.heartfoundation.org.au/bmi-calculator)
- not pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to conceive
- a non-smoker
- able to attend weekly appointments at our Charlestown clinic during the 8-week study period.
Participants receive study-related medical care and medication at no cost, from a dedicated team of health professionals. Participants also receive a reimbursement to cover the cost of travel for attending visits at our Charlestown clinic.
