Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study will examine MDMA-assisted psychotherapy in individuals aged 18 years or older diagnosed with PTSD, with PTSD symptoms not improving after trying at least one treatment. This objective of this study is to determine whether three eight-hour long sessions of MDMA-assisted psychotherapy, scheduled three to five weeks apart, can be safely administered to participants with PTSD, and whether combining a fully therapeutic dose of MDMA with psychotherapy, when compared with a low ("active placebo") dose of MDMA, will reduce PTSD symptoms. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive the full dose of MDMA (125 mg) or assigned to receive a low or "active placebo" dose of MDMA (25 mg) during each of three experimental sessions.

Detailed Description

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) occurs after experiencing a traumatic event or events. PTSD is a public health problem that causes a great deal of suffering.

This study will examine MDMA-assisted psychotherapy in individuals aged 18 years or older diagnosed with PTSD, with PTSD symptoms not improving after trying at least one treatment. This objective of this study is to determine whether three eight-hour long sessions of MDMA-assisted psychotherapy, scheduled three to five weeks apart, can be safely administered to participants with PTSD, and whether combining a fully therapeutic dose of MDMA with psychotherapy, when compared with a low ("active placebo") dose of MDMA, will reduce PTSD symptoms. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive the full dose of MDMA (125 mg) or assigned to receive a low or "active placebo" dose of MDMA (25 mg) during each of three experimental sessions.

People who receive the low dose of MDMA have the opportunity to take part in a second "open label" study continuation, wherein the participants will undergo three MDMA-assisted sessions, with the participant and the researchers knowing that a full dose of MDMA is being administered. People who receive the full dose of MDMA, and any person who received low-dose MDMA and does not undergo the open-label study continuation will have PTSD symptoms measured six and twelve months after the third session. People who take part in the open label study continuation have their PTSD symptoms assessed six and 12 months after the third Phase II MDMA-assisted session.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment

Drug: 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (125 mg)
Participants will receive an initial dose of 125 mg MDMA orally and, if investigator and participant deem appropriate, 2.5 hours later they will receive 62.5 mg MDMA orally.
Other Names:
  • MDMA
  • Behavioral: Therapy
    Non-directive therapy performed by a team of two co-therapists

    Three 8-hour sessions of MDMA-assisted therapy with 25 mg of MDMA, followed by a supplemental dose of 12.5 mg MDMA

    Drug: 3,4-methyelendioxymethamphetamine (25 mg)

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From Baseline to Primary Endpoint in Clinician Administered PTSD Scale for DSM-IV (CAPS-IV) [Less than 4 weeks before first experimental session (Baseline) to 3 weeks post 3rd experimental session (Primary Endpoint)]

      The CAPS-IV is a structured clinical interview designed to assess the symptoms and severity of PTSD. The CAPS-IV provides a means to evaluate the frequency and intensity dimensions of each symptom, the impact of symptoms on the patient's social and occupational functioning, the overall severity of the symptom complex, global improvement since baseline, and the validity of the ratings obtained. Total severity scores range from 0 to 136, with higher scores indicating greater severity of PTSD symptoms.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From Baseline to Primary Endpoint in Posttraumatic Stress Diagnostic Scale (PDS) [Less than 4 weeks before first experimental session (Baseline) to 3 weeks post 3rd experimental session (Primary Endpoint)]

      The Posstraumatic Stress Diagnostic Scale (PSD) is a 49-item self-report instrument to aid in the diagnosis of PTSD. Questions are asked about symptoms experienced and participants respond on a scale from 0 ("not at all or only one time") to 3 ("5 or more times a week/almost always"). Items are summed to create a total score that ranges from 0 to 51, with higher scores indicating more PTSD symptoms.
