I work on senescence in adult stem cells, for whatever that's worth. We have found 72-year-olds whose viable fractions were greater than those of 26-year-olds, but as far as we can tell (with sample sizes in the dozens instead of dozens of thousands, this isn't going to be much), there aren't a ton of good predictors save chemo & radiation.
YMMV
