  • Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Study Summary

MLS101 is being developed as a low dose psilocybin, that can be administered to treat various neurological and psychiatric conditions.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to assess how safe and tolerated MLS101 is; to see how MLS101 is distributed and cleared by the body (pharmacokinetics); and to assess the psychedelic effects of MLS101 in healthy adult participants.

Study Description

In recent years, high-dose psilocybin has gained attention for its potential therapeutic benefits in many psychiatric indications, however existing clinical data for low psilocybin doses are limited.

Microdoses are generally considered to be those absent of profound sensory and cognitive effects that would interfere with normal everyday functioning, but only a small number of prospective studies have evaluated microdoses and/or low doses in a controlled manner.

As a foundational study of the therapeutic use of low doses of psilocybin, this study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and sensorial effects using a prospective, controlled, single ascending dose/multiple ascending doses in healthy volunteers.
