研究概览
简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if MDMA-assisted therapy is safe and effective at reducing PTSD symptoms in people with at least severe PTSD.
The main question it aims to answer is:
Do three open-label sessions of MDMA-assisted therapy reduce PTSD symptoms?
Participants will receive three non-drug preparatory sessions followed by three sessions of MDMA-assisted therapy. Each MDMA-assisted therapy session is followed by three non-drug integrative therapy sessions.
详细描述
This multi-site, open-label, Phase 2, lead-in study assesses the safety and effect of MDMA-assisted therapy in participants diagnosed with at least severe posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Therapy teams that have been identified and trained to work on the sponsor's planned Phase 3 studies will treat at least one open-label participant in this study.
This study will compare the effects of three open-label manualized Experimental Sessions of psychotherapy assisted by flexible doses of MDMA. Initial doses per Experimental Session include 100 mg or 125 mg of MDMA compounded with lactose, followed 1.5 to 2 hours later by a supplemental half-dose (50 mg or 62.5 mg). Total amounts of MDMA to be administered per Experimental Session range from 100 mg to 187.5 mg. This ~12-week Treatment Period is preceded by three Preparatory Sessions. During the Treatment Period, each Experimental Session is followed by three Integrative Sessions of non-drug psychotherapy.
The primary outcome measure is the change in the Clinician Administered PTSD Scale for DSM 5 (CAPS-5) total severity scores from Baseline to Visit 19. The secondary outcome measure is the change in the customized version of the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) for PTSD for the MAPS studies total scores from Baseline to Visit 19.

结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline to Primary Endpoint in Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale for DSM-5 (CAPS-5) Total Severity Score
时间窗: Baseline (Visit 3) to Primary Endpoint (Visit 19,18 weeks post enrollment)
The Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale for DSM-5 (CAPS-5) is a clinician administered and scored assessment of PTSD symptoms via structured interview based upon PTSD diagnosis in DSM-5. It contains symptom subscales, a CAPS-5 total severity score, and a diagnostic score. The total severity score is a sum of symptom frequency and intensity scores for the subscales B (re-experiencing), C (avoidance) and D (hypervigilance) and ranges from 0 to 136, with higher scores indicating greater severity of PTSD symptoms.
次要结局
- Change From Baseline to Primary Endpoint in Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS for PTSD for MAPS) Total Score(Baseline (Visit 3) to Primary Endpoint (Visit 19, 18 weeks post-enrollment))
