Official title

Psilocybin-assisted Psychotherapy in the Management of Anxiety Associated With Stage IV Melanoma.

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

This study is to find out about whether two sessions of psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy are safe and will help people who are anxious as a result of having stage IV melanoma and will involve two sessions of psychotherapy combined with either 4 or 25 mg psilocybin. The study will measure anxiety, depression, quality of life and spirituality before and after psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy, natural killer cells (a type of immune cell) will be counted from blood samples taken the day after psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy, and people will keep daily diaries reporting on how anxious they feel for each day in the study.
