排除标准
- •1.Pregnancy or lactation
- •2.BMI < 15
- •3.Recent or current use of illicit drugs including methamphetamine, heroin, and synthetic cannabinoids. Other non-prescribed drugs will prompt exclusion at the discretion of the study physician
- •4.Unable to give adequate informed consent
- •5.Upon review of past and current drugs/medication must not be taking a medication that is exclusionary (see Study Reference Manual), or has stopped taking an exclusionary drug for less than the requisite washout period (see Study Reference Manual)
- •6.Liver function test >3 times the upper limit of normal or creatinine clearance <30 mL/min
- •7.Upon review of medical or psychiatric history must not have any current or past diagnosis that would be considered a risk for participation in the study. Any participant presenting current serious suicide risk, as determined through psychiatric interview, responses to C-SSRS, and clinical judgement of the investigator will be excluded; however, history of suicide attempts is not, in itself, exclusionary. Any participant who is likely to require hospitalization related to suicidal ideation and behaviour, in the judgement of the Study physician will not be enrolled. Any participant presenting with the following on the Baseline C-SSRS will be excluded:
- •- Suicidal ideation score of >4 within the last month, at a frequency of once a week or more
- •- Suicidal ideation score of 5 within the last 6 months
- •- Any suicidal behaviour, including suicide attempts or preparatory acts, within the last 6 months. Participants with non-suicidal self-injurious behaviour may be included if approved by the Study physician
- •8.Have a history of any medical condition that could make receiving a sympathomimetic drug harmful because of increases in blood pressure and heart rate. This includes, but is not limited to, a history of myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident, or aneurysm. Participants with other mild, stable chronic medical problems may be enrolled if the site physician, CI, and Study physician agree the condition would not significantly increase the risk of MDMA administration or be likely to produce significant symptoms during the study that could interfere with study participation or be confused with side effects of the IMP. Examples of stable medical conditions that could be allowed include, but are not limited to diabetes mellitus (Type 2), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), etc. Any medical disorder judged by the investigator to significantly increase the risk of MDMA administration by any mechanism would require exclusion.
- •9.Have uncontrolled essential hypertension using the standard criteria of the American Heart Association (values of 140/90 milligrams of mercury [mmHg] or higher assessed on three separate occasions).
- •10.Have a history of ventricular arrhythmia at any time, other than occasional premature atrial contractions (PACs) or premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) in the absence of ischemic heart disease.
- •11.Have Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome or any other accessory pathway that has not been successfully eliminated by ablation.
- •12.Have a history of arrhythmia, other than occasional PACs or PVCs in the absence of ischemic heart disease, within 12 months of screening. Participants with a history of atrial fibrillation, atrial tachycardia, atrial flutter or paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia or any other arrhythmia associate
