NCT ID NCT07072728

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

Summary

This study tests whether a single dose of NPX-5 (a psilocybin drug) combined with talk therapy can reduce severe anxiety in people who have trouble adjusting to a cancer diagnosis. About 87 adults aged 18–80 with moderate-to-severe anxiety will receive one of three doses (25 mg, 10 mg, or 1 mg) during an 8-hour therapy session. The goal is to see if the treatment safely lowers anxiety and improves quality of life.
