NCT ID NCT07469098

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether group-based MDMA-assisted therapy works as well as individual sessions for people with PTSD linked to the October 7, 2023 events. 168 participants will receive MDMA in either a group or individual setting, along with therapy sessions. The goal is to see if group therapy is a safe and effective option to help more people access treatment.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

MDMA (also known as ecstasy or molly)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that group therapy with MDMA is as safe and effective as individual sessions, making treatment more accessible for people with PTSD.

What could go wrong

This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 168 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. MDMA can cause side effects like anxiety, nausea, and increased heart rate, and the therapy is still experimental.
