Ptsd Post Traumatic Stress Disorder

Objectives of this study are to provide continued safety assessment for the ReStore system, and to gain further estimates of the effect size of Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) therapy with Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE) compared to PE with placebo (sham) stimulation in participants with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

The Redefine Study (COMP202) is testing COMP360 to see if it may reduce post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms when administered alongside monitoring and support from a trained study team. COMP360 is a lab-made form of the naturally occurring chemical compound psilocybin.

Despite being exposed to a high level of potentially traumatic experiences due to exposure to combat, military veterans have poor response rates to traditional PTSD treatments, in some reports, just 1/3 of veterans recover using traditional treatments. In recent years 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), a psychedelic drug has demonstrated a significant treatment potential for severe and treatment resistant PTSD though not specifically in a veteran population. Additionally, even in groups where participants receive a placebo, the effect of the psychedelic treatment formulation, intensive, focused and respectful structure, appears to have promising effects. Indeed, in the current psychedelic literature, the setting and mind with which participant approach psychedelic therapy, significantly contributes to the treatment effect. The current study proposes to address the major gaps in the theoretical literature by examining the proposed mechanisms by which MDMA enhances the "window of tolerance" for PTSD therapy, specifically in those with comorbid symptoms of moral injury; namely by reducing hyperarousal and enhancing connection (to self and others) and whether MDMA assisted therapy is more successful in reducing PTSD in veterans compared to a matched somatic experiential PTSD treatment, Somatic Experiental Acceptance Intensive Trauma-based therapy, (SEA-IT) which builds upon the promising placebo results, enhancing them with somatic and acceptance based treatment protocols.

The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the use of sedative ketamine to treat depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in Veterans with mild to moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Efficacy of ketamine to reduce symptoms of depression and/or PTSD * Safety of ketamine to treat depression and/or PTSD in TBI Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either ketamine or midazolam (active placebo) twice a week for 3 weeks. During participation, subjects will be interviewed, have lab tests, and complete rating scales, and questionnaires.
