Effects of Single Dose of Ayahuasca or Esketamine on PTSD: a Double-blinded Study

Based on the public registry summary, this study is trying to understand: Double-blind, randomized trial comparing a single dose of oral ayahuasca or esketamine in patients with posttraumatic stress disorder. The study team can confirm the exact objective and what it means for you.

This appears to be a medication / drug study involving Ayahuasca, Esketamine. The listed phase is PHASE2. Ask the study team what that means in practice for safety, monitoring, and criteria.

This study may concern people with ptsd; age range: From 18 Years to 65 Years. The criteria appear fairly specific, but you should not assume you are eligible. The study team must confirm diagnosis, age, exclusions, available locations, and next steps.

You may need to take a study treatment and have regular medical follow-up. The listed study locations suggest that at least part of participation may involve a physical site. Ask whether some steps can be done remotely.

If the study involves a medication, ask whether it is already approved, experimental, or being tested for a new use. Check possible side effects, interactions with current treatment, dose changes, monitoring, and what happens if you feel worse. For any mental health study, also ask who to contact if you feel worse, whether participation may affect current treatment, whether you can stop, and who confirms eligibility.

The listed study locations suggest that at least part of participation may involve a physical site. Ask which sites are open, how many visits are expected, whether any steps can be done remotely, and whether travel costs or compensation are listed.

This study is sponsored by University of Sao Paulo, which appears to be a university. If available, it can be useful to check the sponsor website, collaborators, investigator affiliation, and the official registry before deciding. HopeStage does not judge the quality of a sponsor or researcher, but helps you identify what to verify.

The registry indicates that this study is currently recruiting. This does not mean you are eligible: the study team must confirm the criteria, available locations, and next steps. The registry lists an estimated enrollment of 10 participants.
