CBD for Individuals at Risk for Alzheimer's Disease

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This is a double-blind, randomized controlled trial designed to test the effects of cannabidiol (CBD) on validated biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression, and behavioral, neurocognitive, and clinical measures, with putative mechanisms of action.

Clinical Trial Description

To better understand the effects of hemp-derived CBD with and without a small amount of THC, we propose a Phase II randomized clinical trial (RCT) to examine the clinical effects of Full Spectrum CBD (fsCBD, contains less than 0.3% THC) vs. Broad Spectrum CBD (bsCBD, does not contain THC), vs. a matching placebo in a population of individuals diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study designed to assess the efficacy of fsCBD and bsCBD, compared to a placebo control, on biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease progression, cognitive function, pain, sleep quality, anxiety, oxidative stress, and inflammation. If eligible for the study, subjects will be randomized to receive one of the conditions for 24 weeks. The current study will test the hypothesis that a moderate dose of CBD will improve measures of Alzheimer's disease progression, cognitive function, pain, sleep quality, anxiety, oxidative stress, and inflammation as compared to placebo. The study will also test whether endocannabinoids mediate the effects of CBD on these outcomes. ;
