About this study

Official title: Phase 1, Open-Label, One-Treatment, Single-Dose, One-Period, Pharmacokinetic Study of Psilocin 4 mg as Its Mucic Acid Salt (L-130) Form, in Healthy Subjects Under Fasted Conditions

Psilocin is the active metabolite of psilocybin a natural material found in several types of fungi. The bioavailability of psilocybin, the prodrug of psilocin, has been reported to be over 60%. However, pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of psilocin mucate has not been reported. This Phase I "First in Man" study of psilocin mucate is designed to determine its safety, pharmacokinetics, and bioavailability. The study is conducted under the supervision of physicians and psychiatrists who also will administer a mini-mental state evaluation and report observable anti-anxiolytic effect of the dosage. Safety and possible indications of efficacy will be tracked during the study period, a week following the dose administration and one month after.

Read the detailed description

This study is designed to assess the bioavailability and pharmacokinetic parameters and to monitor the safety and tolerability of Psilocin 2 mg as its Mucic Acid Salt (L-130) form, a proprietary drug candidate of Lobe Sciences Ltd., in healthy subjects under fasted conditions.

The study will be conducted in compliance with the protocol and applicable regulatory requirements, GCP and GLP principles and guidelines: Declaration of Helsinki as amended by the 64th WMA General Assembly, Fortaleza, Brazil, November 2013, FDA Guidelines for Bioavailability \& Bioequivalence Studies and OECD Principles of Good Laboratory Practice will be observed.

The study population will consist of 10 Healthy Subjects aged between 21 and 50 years (inclusive), body mass index 18.5 to 30.0 kg/m2 inclusive (minimum of 50 kg weight for males and 45 kg for females), nonsmokers or quit smoking 24 hours prior to dosing.

The investigational test product L-130 Capsules containing 2 mg of psilocin as its Mucic Acid Salt of Lobe Sciences Ltd. consisted of single oral dose containing 2 mg of Psilocin (equivalent to 4 mg as Psilocin Mucate salt).

Each dose will be administered orally, with 240 mL of water in sitting position under sodium light to healthy subjects after an overnight fast of at least 10 hours in the morning of study dosing day. The study will be conducted as an open label study. Therefore, blinding will not be done. However, the bioanalysis will be performed blinded with regard to the sequence of product administration. Each subject will have a pre-dose sample of 8 ml collected and 13 additional 8 ml samples collected over a 24 hour period.

The principal and/ or clinical investigator and study staff will monitor subjects throughout the hospitalization periods. Blood pressure and heart rate will be measured before dosing and at scheduled intervals after dosing. The principal and/ or clinical Investigator will be available throughout each hospitalization period. During outpatient phases, study staff will be available during regular working hours.

Subjects' safety will be observed at scheduled intervals of before dosing (-1.00) and 0.50, 0.75, 1.00, 2.00, 3.00, 5.00, 8.00, 12.00, 16.00 and 24.00 hours after drug administration. Subjects will be queried on adverse events. In addition, voluntary reporting of adverse events by subjects will be reported.

Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) score will be assessed to dosed subjects by CI/PI approximately two hours after drug administration, and the results will be tabulated in the final report. Subjects will be asked to report changes in their mood, or other observations during and following the study period. Subjects will also be followed up by phone call after one week and four weeks of dosing to assess if they are experiencing changes in feeling or having improved mood, and the outcomes of the phone calls will be tabulated in the final report.

Following the collection of blood samples and appropriate processing, each sample will be analyzed with a validated analytical method to determine the pharmacokinetic profile of psilocin mucate in plasma.

All clinical laboratories test results of screening lab tests will be summarized by descriptive statistics. Follow up lab tests will also be summarized by descriptive statistics.

The aim of the study is to assess the bioavailability and pharmacokinetic parameters and to monitor the safety and tolerability of the formulation in healthy subjects under fasting conditions after a single oral dose of L-130 Capsules containing 2 mg of psilocin as its Mucic Acid Salt. The final report will provide safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of the test product. The study will also report patient reported pharmacology.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Psilocin in people with Side Effect of Drug, run by Lobe Sciences Ltd. at 1 site in Jordan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 25 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Jordan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Determination of adverse events (time frame: 28 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Sep 2023.
