Significant reductions were found in 2 trials with 2 anxiety scales (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory\u2013State, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory\u2013Trait) and in 1 trial with 2 additional anxiety scales (Hamilton Rating Scale\u2013Anxiety, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale\u2013Anxiety). Significant reductions were found in 2 trials in 2 depression scales (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale\u2013Depression, Beck Depression Inventory) and in 1 trial with an additional depression scale (Hamilton Rating Scale\u2013Depression). Two studies assessed for clinically relevant reductions in anxiety and depression scores, and they occurred much more commonly in psychedelic-treated patients than those given placebo.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Relevance to Patient Care and Clinical Practice:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>There is a new potential option for treating patients with anxiety and depression along with cancer, which is important given the generally lackluster benefits with traditional antidepressants. Only a few sessions may also provide benefits extending out for 6 to 12 months and possibly beyond that. However, the studies were small, had many methodological limitations, and there were increases in blood pressure and heart rate.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Psychedelics have a unique mechanism of action that might be well suited for treating anxiety and depression associated with cancer.
