研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this research study is to compare an oral dose of psilocybin and an intravenous (IV) infusion of psilocybin to assess differences in how the drug is absorbed by the body, the psychedelic experience, and any side effects when taken by healthy adult participants. Participants can expect to be in the study for approximately 12 weeks.
详细描述
Psilocybin, when delivered to screened and prepared participants in a controlled environment, has shown strong evidence of positive effects in treating cancer-related psychiatric distress, depression and anxiety, treatment-resistant depression, and nicotine or alcohol addiction. Psilocybin therapy is generally safe and well-tolerated when conducted under controlled conditions. Psilocybin is very rapidly transformed to the active metabolite psilocin, which is considered the active agent from psilocybin administration. Oral and IV psilocybin are expected to have similar pharmacokinetic and psychedelic effects, as well as safety profiles, while IV psilocybin will achieve more consistent blood levels than are possible with oral psilocybin.

Difference in the maximum concentration (Cmax) between psilocybin administration methods.
时间窗: Day 8, Day 22
Cmax will be determined after oral and IV psilocybin doses to assess for more consistent blood concentration.
Difference in the time to maximum plasma concentration (Tmax) between psilocybin administration methods.
时间窗: Day 8, Day 22
Tmax will be determined after oral and IV psilocybin doses to assess for more consistent blood concentration.
