The goal of this interventional study is to learn about the effect of Medicinal Cannabis (Bedrocan®) on Fibromyalgia patients with pain resistant to conventional therapy. The main question the trial aims to answer are: - Is Bedrocan® effective for treating fibromyalgia-related pain in patients resistant to conventional therapy? - Can a low dosage of medical cannabis taken as a decoction reduce fibromyalgic pain? All patients were trained on how to make the decoction: therapy was started with 100 mg/day (1 folder) and increased to 200 mg/day (2 folders) in non-responders.
Cannabis use is increasing and will only further escalate with legalization of recreational and medical cannabis use in western countries , with a prevalence greater than 30 % in the US and most European countries for individuals between 16 and 24 years of age. Approximately 9 % of those who use cannabis will become addicted. The number goes up to about 1 in 6 among those who start using cannabis as teenagers and to 25 to 50 % among those who smoke cannabis daily. The consequences of cannabis abuse in the most prone population (14-25 years of age) are extremely serious, and may include addiction, altered brain development, poorer educational outcomes, cognitive impairment, lower income, greater welfare dependence, unemployment and lower relationship and life satisfaction. There are no available pharmacological treatments of cannabis use disorder (CUD). Thus, the development of safe and effective medications for the treatment of CUD is an urgent public health priority. The preclinical efficacy and available ADMET (Administration, Distribution, Metabolism, Elimination and Toxicology) in animal and human data suggest that AEF0117, an investigational new study drug, could constitute a very efficacious and safe treatment for cannabis abuse disorders. The purpose of this research is to study how AEF0117 influences the subjective effects of cannabis in subjects with CUD. AEF0117 acts in the same parts of the brain as THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the active ingredient of marijuana, and may temporarily alter some of cannabis's effects. This will be a Phase 1, open-label, nonrandomized, single-dose study in healthy male subjects. Potential subjects will be screened to assess their eligibility to enter the study within 28 days prior to the dose administration. Subjects will be admitted into the study site on Day 1. On the morning of Day 1, all subjects will receive a single oral dose of 2 mg containing approximately 100 μCi of [4-14C]AEF0117 approximately 1 hour after completion of a low fat breakfast.
This study will be a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter trial conducted to evaluate whether PP-01 mitigates the withdrawal symptoms associated with discontinuing cannabis in participants with moderate to severe Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD). The study will enroll approximately 225 participants with moderate to severe CUD and will include 5 arms, including a placebo arm, to help assess the incidence and severity of withdrawal symptoms in heavy long-term users of cannabis. Participants receive study medication for 34 days and participate in 11 visits (7 at a clinic and 4 telemedicine).
The purposes of this study are 1) to determine if the administration of different low doses of oral CBD (20 mg, 50 mg, 100 mg and 200 mg) result in detectable subjective pleasant drug effect compared to placebo and 2) to qualitatively explore whether low dose of oral CBD is associated with effects that are not detected with the available research tools.
The purpose of this pilot study is to conduct research into the value of using the T-Break Guide for assisting people taking a tolerance break from cannabis. The hope is that this initial research will yield some insights and benchmarks into the Guide's efficacy, and provide a foundation for a later randomized control study. The following are some key research questions: 1. How did participants use the Guide? (Eg: daily; read once; 'a la carte') 2. How did using the Guide increase fidelity to tolerance break (starting, continuing, completing a break)? 3. Did using the Guide yield any benefits beyond tolerance break fidelity? (Eg: insight into patterns of use)
The CanCope Study is a micro-randomized trial conducted to gather evidence about and compare the effectiveness of a momentary intervention to help young adults cope with cannabis cravings as they attempt to reduce their use.
Lots of people, including athletes and people who like to exercise regularly, enjoy marijuana. Some people believe marijuana might improve their ability to exercise. There are no recent, up-to-date scientific studies to suggest that this belief is right or wrong. The goal of this study is to determine the influence of marijuana on exercise performance.
This study will recruit healthy volunteers who use cannabis infrequently. Each participant will attend the laboratory on five occasions: an initial visit to check that they are safe to join the study and four days of testing. Participants will be administered, in a randomized order, vaporized cannabis containing one of four different ratios of CBD:THC (0:1, 1:1, 2:1, 3:1). The cannabis administration will follow a standardised inhalation procedure using a medical-grade vaporizer device. Participants will complete a series of tasks measuring cognition, psychosis, anxiety and other subjective experiences. The study will be carried out at the NIHR-Wellcome Trust Clinical Research Facility at King's College Hospital.
Medical cannabis (MC) is a standard treatment in Israel to adults with resistant Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS). While small randomized control trials assessed THC efficacy on tics and premonitory urge, only small retrospective studies assessed MC efficacy and tolerability in GTS. Herein, By using an open-label, prospective design, our aim is to determine the preferred method of use, efficacy and tolerability of 12 weeks of treatment with MC in adult patients with GTS.
