Reply to Einstein’s theory helps to reveal Jupiter’s distant duplicate. A near-identical twin of Jupiter discovered around a distant star is the first planet to be found from space using a gravitational effect called microlensing. by MistWeaver80

4.4 au from its sun, about a 13 year orbit, it's 17000 light years away, and it doesn't quite transit the star as seen from Earth.

Reply to comment by IDownvoteUrPet in As many as a fifth of all asteroids in the asteroid belt may have been formed out on the fringes of the solar system. Findings suggest that both Ryugu and the CI chondrites originate from the same region of space, and could even have shared the same parent body. by marketrent

Not an actual full size planet, no. "Ryugu is thought to have originated from a ~100 km-diameter parent body" that was warm enough to be soaking wet on the inside. Some of the rocks marinated in the hot groundwater. "After aqueous alteration, the parent body was catastrophically disrupted by an impact; part of the material re-accumulated to form a rubble pile asteroid, Ryugu."
