An American company is planning to offer an unregulated anti-ageing gene therapy at overseas clinics outside US jurisdiction, bypassing FDA approval. The therapy, which has not been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration, raises significant ethical and safety concerns about unregulated longevity treatments being offered to consumers in regulatory gray zones.
