Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of group-based MDMA-assisted therapy compared to individual MDMA-assisted therapy in participants with PTSD, who were diagnosed following the events of 7 October 2023. The main questions it aims to answer are: safety and tolerability? effectiveness? Researchers will compare group-based MDMA-assisted therapy to individual MDMA-assisted therapy to see if group-based MDMA-assisted therapy is not inferior to individual MDMA-assisted therapy, in terms of safety and effectiveness.

Participants will be randomized to one of two study arms: group-based MDMA-assisted therapy or individual MDMA-assisted therapy receive MDMA HCl administered orally in a divided dose. Participate in preparatory sessions, MDMA dosing sessions, and integration sessions. Be monitored for adverse events and suicidality (C-SSRS). Be monitored by an external Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB).
