CYB004, or CYB-004, also known as deuterated dimethyltryptamine (dDMT), is a serotonergic psychedelic related to dimethyltryptamine (DMT) which is under development for the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder. [1] [4] [2] [3] It is administered by inhalation or intravenous injection. [1] [2]
[6] [7] [8] They can completely block or reduce the effects of hallucinogens [6] or they can simply provide anxiety relief and sedation. [3] Examples of trip killers, in the case of serotonergic psychedelics , include serotonin receptor antagonists , like antipsychotics and certain antidepressants , and benzodiazepines .
[162] [164] [165] Similarly to DMT, 5-MeO-DMT is a biased agonist of the serotonin 5-HT 2A receptor, with minimal β-arrestin2 recruitment, and likewise has been associated with little tolerance to its hallucinogenic effects. [166] [140] As DMT has been shown to have slightly better efficacy (EC 50) at human serotonin 2C receptor than at the 2A ...
These two studies are some of the first large controlled studies measuring the effects of psychedelic therapy on depression and anxiety in cancer patients. [64] Across clinician-ratings and self-ratings, the psychedelic treatment produced statistically significant lowered anxiety and depression, with sustenance for at least 6 months.
Several derivatives of isoDMT have been developed, including the non-hallucinogenic psychoplastogens 5-MeO-isoDMT and AAZ-A-154 (DLX-001; (R)-5-MeO-α-methyl-isoDMT) and the hallucinogen and psychoplastogen 6-MeO-isoDMT.
To date studies have explored the utility of psilocybin in a variety of diseases, including TRD, [14] [15] smoking addiction, [16] [17] and anxiety and depression in people with cancer diagnoses. [18] LSD is being tested in phase 2 trials for cluster headaches and anxiety. [19] DMT is being studied for depression. [20]
6-MeO-DMT, or 6-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine, also known as 6-OMe-DMT, is a serotonergic drug of the tryptamine family. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is the 6- methoxy derivative of the serotonergic psychedelic N , N -dimethyltryptamine (DMT) and is a positional isomer of the serotonergic psychedelic 5-MeO-DMT .
It is also used as a treatment for depression and in pain management. [19] Ketamine is an NMDA receptor antagonist which accounts for most of its psychoactive effects. [20] At anesthetic doses, ketamine induces a state of dissociative anesthesia, a trance-like state providing pain relief, sedation, and amnesia. [21]
