- The efficacy of the single administration of the psilocybin + trazodone 30 mg combination at 1 month will be assessed by the mean difference of Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) scores between M1 (V6) and Baseline (V2), between the following groups: psilocybin + trazodone 30 mg (Group 3) and placebo + trazodone (Group 4).
