This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of a single dose of CBD for acute anticipatory anxiety in patients with advanced breast cancer undergoing computed tomography (CT) scan to assess tumor burden. The research study investigates use of CBD to manage anxiety prior to an

Cannabis is a very popular drug for both recreational and medicinal use. An estimated 20% of adults in the United States report using cannabis in the past month, and this number continues to increase each year. As of 2018, medicinal use of cannabis is legal in 33 states and the District of Columbia.

CIPN is a common complication of many effective cytotoxic agents that can negatively impact patients' treatment course and quality of life.

Background and Significance of the Proposed Project Over 80% of Americans are exposed to a significant trauma sometime during their lifetime and approximately 7% will meet for a threshold diagnosis of posttraumatic stress disorder. PTSD is the most costly anxiety-related disorder and confers

The aim of this trial is to examine the neurochemical mechanisms associated with Cannabidiol (CBD) versus placebo for chronic non-cancer pain. Participants will include individuals with chronic pain, who will be randomized into one of two intervention conditions: low THC/high CBD or placebo. In

Investigators propose a study consisting of a series of N-of-1 trials comparing 3 different active cancer-related symptom management treatments against a placebo treatment in terms of effectiveness and safety. Using formal statistical modeling, effectiveness will be assessed for single patients, for

This is a 6-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group design trial followed by an open-label extension phase of 12 weeks, to evaluate tolerability of medical cannabis oil to reduce chronic pain intensity. Consecutive adult patients between the ages of 18 and 75, male and

Several studies have shown a potential anti-tumor role for cannabinoids by modulating cell signaling pathways, inhibiting angiogenesis, inducing apoptosis, and overcoming chemotherapy resistance. In phase I trials, cannabinoids have been shown to enhance the uptake of chemotherapy into malignant

The National Center for Health Statistics reports that approximately 76 million Americans suffer from chronic pain, affecting the lives of more Americans than cancer, diabetes, and heart disease combined. Perhaps because of its ubiquity and the challenge to its treatment, relief from chronic pain is

The overall aim of this study is to examine the effects of Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and Cannabidiol (CBD) on chronic pain symptoms, specifically we will examine the effects of different doses of THC/CBD on symptoms of chronic pain and life functioning. Participants will include individuals

The aim is to investigate the effect of the cannabinoids THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol) on energy- and protein intake and lean body mass in patients with pancreatic cancer. A metabolomics analysis is conducted to determine the simultaneous and quantitative intracellular metabolites
