Crowdfunding Project Looks for a “Better Rapamycin”

That’s probably the most important part as it’s what driving the sales. People are betting on owning a share of a FDA approved drug for aging?

Yes something like this. Not all of the drugs on Pump are FDA approved. The great thing about the Rapamycin + Doxycycline combo is both are FDA approved so it could be fast tracked compared to Omipalisib + Doxycycline.

Have you personally tried the combo regimen?

Personally as in taken it myself? No. I take rapamycin 6mg once a week. I’m open to adding in doxycycline low dose alongside this. It’s something I’ve been considering, and given the incredible lifespan data we have seen from this on previous tests it just adds credence to the combination.

I think you misunderstood my question. I meant FDA approved for aging. How is the drug or combination expected to be monetized after human trials?

As a general observation, people can parent unique combinations of generic drugs for new indications, and then sell it as a new drug.

The long term value of any of the trading is always in expectation of that. It’s the return. I don’t see why that shouldn’t be primary in any marketing.

The 301 mTOR modulator compounds tested in the first half of the mTOR modulator lifespan study have been added to the Rapamycin Longevity Lab Longevity Intervention Database (LID): Rapamycin Longevity Lab - It's time to speed things up!
To see them, enter “RLL” into the ‘Tags’ field.

Thanks for sharing, @AustraliaLongevity! And big thanks for all the great support in the project. Now the next goal is to get the last remaining 300 compounds screened as well in phase 2 of the project. Please reach out if you want to support or if you know someone who may be interested in doing so. Just to give a thumbs up or share the social media post is also a great way to support the project if you are not able to financially help out :pray:

A suggested combo regimen of rapamycin and doxy by perplexity:

*** Rapamycin:**

  • Role: Inhibits mTOR, inducing autophagy and metabolic stress.
  • Suggested Use: 1–2 mg daily or 5–10 mg weekly (common in research for mTOR inhibition). Low, intermittent doses may reduce side effects while maintaining efficacy.
  • Timing: Once weekly (e.g., Monday) to sustain mTOR suppression, as effects were reversible after short-term treatment in the study.
    *** Doxycycline:**
  • Role: Disrupts mitochondrial function, enhances mitophagy, amplifies metabolic stress.
  • Suggested Use: 100 mg daily (standard antimicrobial dose, often used in cancer studies for mitochondrial targeting). Continuous low-dose may align with study’s long-term treatment efficacy.
  • Timing: Daily, morning or evening, to maintain mitochondrial disruption and synergize with rapamycin’s autophagy induction.
    *** Weekly Stack Example:**
  • Monday: Rapamycin (5–10 mg, single dose) + Doxycycline (100 mg daily, continue through week).
  • Tuesday–Sunday: Doxycycline (100 mg daily).
  • Rationale: Rapamycin’s weekly pulse sustains mTOR inhibition; daily Doxy maintains mitochondrial stress and mitophagy, as seen in ~2/3 cell line efficacy.
