The Challenge

Lifespan is rising. Healthspan is not.

An aging world

The population over 60 is set to double within a generation, placing unprecedented demand on individuals and health systems alike.

A widening gap

People are living longer, but too many of those added years are spent in declining health rather than good health.

Few real options

Many of the most burdensome conditions of aging are still managed symptomatically, with no therapy that modifies the underlying disease.

Our Belief

Longevity is only meaningful when paired with vitality.

Our Approach

A shared biology of aging — and a way to intervene.

A growing body of science points to common cellular drivers underlying many age-related diseases. Vivat is advancing a novel, proprietary small-molecule program designed to target that biology — with the potential to modify disease across several major indications.
