The problem with NMN and NAD+ activators in general is that these don't[1] seem to increase (even) the mouse lifespan in ITP trials[2], which is more or less a benchmark for preclinical testing of longevity-modulating substances. On the other hand, there is a handful of substances that passed this trial with evidence of some positive influence over lifespan, at least in mice, and as such are interesting candidates for human trials: [3][4][5][6]. There is also a very interesting class of substances that seem not only to extend lifespan in mice but even to rejuvenate some aspects of their physiology upon a short course of treatment: senolytics[7][8].
