NCT ID NCT07386730
First seen Feb 04, 2026 · Last updated May 20, 2026 · Updated 18 times
Summary
This early-stage study looks at how two drugs, psilocybin and dextromethorphan, affect brain activity in healthy adults aged 50-85 who report low well-being. Researchers want to see if these drugs change brain wave patterns and inflammation markers, and whether those changes relate to early signs of Alzheimer's disease. The study does not aim to treat or cure any condition, but to gather knowledge about brain function and Alzheimer's risk.
