CBD (Cannabidiol)/THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) Solution as a Pharmacological Strategy for Patients With Fibromyalgia (FibroCann)
Fibromyalgia is considered a chronic pain syndrome, non-inflammatory, of unknown etiology, which manifests itself in the musculoskeletal system in up to 2.5% of the general population, predominantly in females, mainly between 35 and 44 years old, having a direct impact on the quality of life of their patients (JUNIOR; GOLDENFUM; SIENA, 2012; HEYMANN et al., 2017). In 1990, eighteen (18) specific sites were defined as tender points which are used to better diagnose fibromyalgia (WOLFE et al., 2010). Due to its clinical and exclusion diagnosis, treatment usually starts late, which allows the progression of symptoms and corroborates its low efficiency in the long term (DE SOUSA BRAZ et al., 2011). Due to the ineffective results and significant side effects that conventional treatment with drugs such as antidepressants, analgesics and anti-inflammatory drugs can provide, patients, physicians and researchers are looking for new main or adjuvant treatments, pharmacological and non-pharmacological (DE SOUSA BRAZ et al. al., 2011). In this context, it has been seen that the use of Cannabis sativa as a therapeutic option in fibromyalgia is promising, especially in reducing the pain caused by the disease and also the adjuvant symptoms, such as depression and sleep disorders (YASSIN; ORON; ROBINSON, 2019). This result must occur due to the action of cannabinoids, such as CBD and THC, on cannabinoid receptors distributed in peripheral nerves, spinal cord and supraspinal region, sites responsible for the reception, transmission and perception of pain (STE-MARIE et al., 2012). Currently, cannabinoids are considered safe analgesics with considerable efficacy, which demonstrates potential as a therapeutic option in the treatment of chronic pain, particularly in patients refractory to other treatments (HAUSER et al., 2018). In addition to its action on the painful mechanisms of fibromyalgia, the antidepressant effects of Cannabis are of great value in the treatment of fibromyalgia. These effects are explained by the modulation on serotonin 5-HT1A receptors, which has its effect exerted especially by CBD (ESPEJO-PORRAS et al., 2013).
Considering that research has reported the effects of phytocannabinoids on the painful symptoms of fibromyalgia (HAUSER et al., 2018), the hypotheses of the present study are:
Primary hypothesis: The dose-response curve and ED50 for the primary outcome, which is related to pain intensity, will be determined in the dose range between 0.1 and 10mg/day. The sensation of pain will be significantly reduced in participants receiving oral solution containing CBD/THC 10mg/day compared to those who will receive placebo.
Secondary hypothesis: There will be a reduction in pain catastrophizing, as well as an improvement in the acceptance and action rate related to pain, a reduction in depression, an improvement in sleep latency and quality, a reduction in insomnia and an increase in the quality of life in patients treated with oral solution containing CBD/THC 10mg/day compared to those receiving placebo.
Supporting Hypothesis: The tested CBD/THC solution will show efficacy and safety with no serious adverse effects.

Cannabidiol Effects on Learning and Anxiety
To examine the extent to which Cannabidiol (CBD) enhances fear conditioning extinction in college undergraduates who show elevated social anxiety. Undergraduates who display elevated social anxiety on standard assessments will be recruited at the University of Connecticut. All participants will be put in a standard fear conditioning paradigm where they are conditioned to fear a face that occasionally is followed by a shock to their wrist. The other face never is paired with a shock. After everybody learns this, half of the participants will receive 600 mg CBD Isolate Gel Capsules one time, and the other half will receive a placebo dose. Participants will then be presented with the faces with no shocks, and the rate and duration of extinction as measured by electrodermal response as well as subjective fear ratings via a visual analogue scale will be examined. It is hypothesized that participants that receive CBD will display enhanced extinction compared to the placebo group, as evidenced by reduced electrodermal response and reduced visual analogue fear ratings.

Effects of Cannabis/Alcohol on Driving Performance and Field Sobriety Tests
The overarching aim of this study is to examine the impact of acute cannabis and alcohol administration on driving performance, as well as identify methods for detecting driving under the influence of these substances. One-hundred twenty-five healthy volunteers will be randomized into one of 5 conditions; those who receive 1) low dose alcohol and placebo cannabis, 2) low dose alcohol and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), 3) high dose alcohol and placebo cannabis, 4) placebo alcohol and THC, and 5) double placebo. Cannabis inhaled ad libitum and/or ingested alcohol will take place at the beginning of the day followed by the completion of driving simulations, components of the Drug Recognition Expert (DRE) evaluations, and bodily fluid draws (e.g., blood, oral fluid/saliva, breath) over the subsequent 4 hours after ingestion. The purpose of this study is to determine (1) the impact of Δ9-THC on driving performance with and without concurrent alcohol ingestion (2) the duration of driving impairment in terms of hours from initial use, (3) the relationship between performance on the DRE measures and cannabis/alcohol ingestion, and 4) if saliva or expired air can serve as a useful adjunct to the field for blood sampling.

Clinical Trial of Nabilone for Aggression in Adults With Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities
Innovative treatments are urgently needed for severe behavioural problems (SBPs) in adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Although a synthetic cannabinoid, nabilone may be a plausible and safe alternative to treat SBP, safety and efficacy of nabilone in people with IDD has never been evaluated. The investigators propose to conduct this first-ever Phase I pre-pilot open-label clinical trial to collect data on the tolerability and safety profile of nabilone in adults with IDD, and explore changes in SBP pre- and post-treatment. The results will inform a next-stage pilot randomized controlled trial, followed by a fully powered trial eventually.

Influence of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) on Oxycodone Induced Ventilatory Depression in Healthy Volunteers
Rationale:
Opioid misuse and abuse are common problems in the Western world. The rate of unintentional drug overdose is rapidly increasing, not only in the Unites States but also in the Netherlands. Additionally, it is well known that opioids are often used (and abused) in combination with other legal or illicit substances, for example cannabis, including medicinal (i.e. doctor prescribed) cannabis. A major opioid-induced adverse effect is respiratory depression and there are no data that show how oxycodone interacts with cannabis on the ventilatory control system. An appreciable effect is possible given the sedative effects of cannabis. Moreover, investigators previously showed that combining even a low dose of oxycodone (20 mg) with ethanol increased the likelihood of an apneic event (van der Schrier et al. Anesthesiology 2017; 102: 115-122). Because of this side effect and also due to the rising number of addicted chronic opioid users, there is an increasing imminent societal, political and medical interest in advancing research on opioids, opioid-drug interaction and alternatives for the treatment of various chronic illnesses and chronic pain.
Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that cannabis will amplify the ventilatory depressant effect of oxycodone (primary end-point).
Objective: The objective of the study is to quantify the interactive effect of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and oxycodone on ventilatory control.
Study design: Double blind, randomized cross-over, placebo-controlled design.
Study population: Healthy human volunteers between the age of 18 and 45 years old.
Intervention:
Visit A: placebo capsule at t = 0 min + Bedrocan (22.4 mg THC) at t = 90 and 270 min; Visit B: oxycodone 20 mg at t = 0 min + Bedrocan (22.4 mg THC) at t = 90 and 270 min.
Main study parameters/endpoints:
Primary endpoint: The effect of inhaled THC on ventilation at an end-tidal PCO2 = 55 mmHg without and with concomitant intake of 20 mg oxycodone immediate release (IR) capsule in healthy volunteers 120 min after oxycodone intake.
Secondary endpoints: (1) Outcome of Bowdle and Bond & Lader questionnaires; (2) Level of sedation; (3) Pain Pressure Threshold; (4) slope of the hypercapnic ventilatory response; (5) plasma concentrations of THC, 11-OH-THC and oxycodone; a secondary analysis will be performed on the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data (PKPD modeling).

Treatment With Cannabis Oil Containing CBD, THC, CBDV or CBG vs. Placebo of Persons With ADHD
ADHD is the most frequent neuro-developmental disorder in childhood and often continues into adolescence and adulthood.
Indicated drug treatments for ADHD fall into 2 categories: stimulants (such as methylphenidate and amphetamines) and non-stimulants (such as atomoxetine, guanfacine and clonidine) but some persons cannot tolerate their secondary effects or find them non-effective.
In the last decade, medical cannabis products have been researched as possible treatment for neurological and mental diseases such as: Post trauma disorder (PTD), autism (ASD), epilepsy, fibromyalgia (FM) and more.
Data on the effects of cannabidiol rich cannabis extract use for ADHD seems promising but is still limited. The aim of this study is to investigate if oral cannabinoids given to adults with ADHD affect the symptoms of the disorder.
The main objectives of the study are: 1) to characterize the effects of treatment with cannabis oil on symptoms of ADHD; 2) to compare safety and efficacy of cannabis oil products with different CBD,Cannabidivarin (CBDV), cannabigerol (CBG) and THC ratio; 3) and to measure endocannabinoids, THC and CBD and metabolites levels in the blood of the participants.
In this study, participants diagnosed with ADHD will be treated with canabidiol-rich cannabis oil and will follow up weekly during approx.1 month (the study period). Blood tests will be performed before and after treatment. Blood tests include blood count, blood chemistry, hormones profile, phyto- and endo- cannabinoids and their metabolites. Test of Variables of Attention test (TOVA) will be administrated before and after treatment

The Effects of Medical Cannabis in Children With Autistic Spectrum Disorder
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) commonly exhibit comorbid symptoms such as aggression, hyperactivity and anxiety. Data on the effects of cannabidiol rich cannabis extract use for ASD is promising but still limited. The aim of this study is to investigate if oral cannabinoids treatment to children and young adults with ASD affect the comorbidities of autism, including sleep and eating problems, anxiety and violence.
The main objectives of the study are: 1) to characterize the effect of treatment with cannabis oil on comorbid symptoms of ASD; 2) to compare safety and efficacy of different cannabis products with identical CBD:THC ratio; 3) to investigate the effect of treatment on cognitive and adaptive behavior; and 4) to measure THC and CBD and metabolites levels in the blood of the patients.
In this study, patients diagnosed with ASD will be treated with cannabidiol-rich cannabis oil (CBD:THC ratio of 20:1). The researchers will collect parental reports on ASD comorbid symptoms before and bi-weekly during 6 months of the study period. Blood tests will be performed before and after three months of treatment. Blood tests include blood count, blood chemistry, hormones profile, phyto- and endo- cannabinoids and metabolites. Cognitive evaluation will be done before and after six months of treatment. Electroencephalogram (EEG) to exclude epilepsy will be performed before and after six months of treatment.

Medical Cannabis Against Chronic Musculoskeletal Pain: a Mixed Methods Study.
Despite many pharmaceutical options, there are no optimal treatments for Chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP). Although many Canadians use medical cannabis (MC; legally authorized) to relieve their pain, there are no firm conclusions on the efficacy and safety of MC against CMP. In order to increase knowledge on this topic, it is essential to describe the current use of MC against CMP by Canadians and to understand patients' and physicians' perceptions and attitudes. Objectives: This study will evaluate the use of MC against CMP among adults and aims at: 1-Describing the use of MC in Canada, and the main characteristics of users and prescribers; 2-Identifying the therapeutic and adverse effects of MC from the users' perspective; 3a- Identifying the psychosocial, organizational, socio-demographic and health-related factors that influence the use and prescription of MC; and 3b- Quantifying the impacts of these factors on the use and prescription of MC in the management of CMP. Methods: 1) We will analyse available data on the users and prescribers of MC from Health Canada and from the Registre Cannabis Québec; 2) We will use mixed methods to collect data from patients affected by CMP and their physicians. Data from Health Canada will allow to document the prevalence and recent evolution of MC use. The qualitative phase of the second part of the study will identify obstacles and facilitators for the use AND for the prescribing of MC against CMP, including the need for more information in patients suffering from CMP and in physicians. Reasoned samples of patients and physicians will be recruited; information will then be collected by semi-structured interviews. For the quantitative phase, a pan-Canadian survey will be conducted, using a questionnaire built with the results of the qualitative phase of the study. The proposed study will describe the current use of MC against CMP in Canada and will allow to better understand the motivations and expectations of physicians and patients.
