研究概览
简要总结
This open-label pilot study seeks to investigate the safety and efficacy of psilocybin in persons with chronic anorexia nervosa (AN). Psilocybin has previously been demonstrated to decrease depression and anxiety and increase long-term positive behavior change in other populations. The investigators seek to determine whether similar changes can be safely produced in people with AN when psilocybin is administered in a supportive setting with close follow-up. The investigators' primary hypotheses are that psilocybin is safe to administer in people with AN, that it will reduce measures of anxiety and depression, and that it will lead to increased quality of life. The investigators will also assess a number of exploratory measures related to eating disorder pathophysiology.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in health related quality of life as assessed by the Eating Disorder Quality of Life Scale (EDQLS)
时间窗: 2 months post final psilocybin session
This is a 40-item self-report measure of health related quality of life that is specifically developed for eating disorder populations. Each question is rated on a 5 point scale from 1-5, with higher scores indicating better quality of life.
Change in Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) Score
时间窗: 1 week post final psilocybin session
The HADS is a 14-item self-report questionnaire that assesses both anxiety (7 questions) and depression (7 questions). Each question is scored on a 4-point Likert scale from 0-3, with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms.
次要结局
- Change in Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE-Q) score(1 month post final psilocybin session)
- Change in Eating Disorder Examination (EDE) score(1 month post final psilocybin session)
- Change in Body mass index (BMI)(3 months post final psilocybin session)
- Change in Anorexia Nervosa Stages of Change Questionnaire (ANSOCQ) score(1 month post final psilocybin session)
