Hand Osteoarthritis Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Randomized Controlled Trial of Topical Cannabidiol for the Treatment of Thumb Basal Joint Arthritis
Rationale: CBD is commonly being used as an over-the-counter treatment for arthritis-related pain, however no clinical trial has been performed to establish efficacy. Hypothesis: CBD is more effective than placebo for relieving pain and improving patient-reported outcomes for thumb basal joint arthritis. Study Design: The study design with be a double-blind, randomized controlled trial with crossover. Treatment will be blinded to the subjects and investigators. Patients will be randomly assigned 2 weeks of the CBD or control and then crossover to the other condition for 2 additional weeks. Patients will apply the cream at the thumb base twice daily for 1 hour. Subjects will be advised to observe for physiologic changes, skin changes, or other adverse effects.

Primary | Change in hand strength during intervention and at follow-up. | Grip, appositional, and oppositional pinch strength (kg). | Every 2 weeks during intervention and 1 week washout, up to 5 weeks. | |
Primary | Number of participants with change in The PROMIS-29 (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System) during intervention and at follow-up. | PROMIS-29 will measure health-related quality of life and is a validated, 29 question survey divided into seven sub-domains of function including physical functioning, social function, pain interference, pain intensity, sleep, depression, and anxiety, where a higher score indicates more pain interference. | Every 2 weeks during intervention and 1 week washout, up to 5 weeks. | |
Primary | Number of participants with change in the PROMIS upper extremity tests during intervention and at follow-up. | The Patient Reported Outcome Information System (PROMIS) Upper Extremity Computer Adaptive Test (CAT) is a computerized assessment measuring the physical function of the upper extremity. It is scored using a T-score, and the average is 50 for the U.S. population. In a given PROMIS, a T-score above 50 represents more of the measured variable than the average. For this variable, a T-score above 50 indicates greater physical function than the average population. | Every 2 weeks during intervention and 1 week washout, up to 5 weeks. | |
Primary | Change in Kapandji score | Kapandji score (ranging 0 to 10) is validated measures in past studies as outcomes for hand disability. The Kapandji score is a tool useful for assessing the opposition of the thumb, based on where on their hand the patient is able to touch with the tip of their thumb. A score of 0 indicates no opposition, a score of 10 indicates maximal opposition. | Every 2 weeks during intervention and 1 week washout, up to 5 weeks. | |
Primary | Change in hand range of motion | metacarpal phalangeal (MP) and interphalangeal (IP) range of motion. | Every 2 weeks during intervention and 1 week washout, up to 5 weeks. | |
Secondary | Rate of side effects using novel CBD cream. | Side effects will be assessed at each encounter clinical evaluation by patient report in a Symptom Diary. All side effects thought to be secondary to CBD will be documented. | Daily during intervention and 1 week washout, up to 5 weeks. |
