简要总结
This study will assess the analgesic, appetite-stimulating, and subjective effects of cannabigerol (CBG) alone and in combination with THC.
详细描述
The overall aim of this double-blind, placebo-controlled, within-subject study in healthy, occasional cannabis smokers is to ascertain the dose-dependent analgesic and appetite-stimulating effects of ecologically relevant doses of cannabigerol (CBG) alone and in combination with a sub-analgesic / sub-appetite stimulating, minimally psychoactive dose of THC and an analgesic, appetite-stimulating, but intoxicating dose of THC.

If a medication is taken once a participant is enrolled, sessions will be suspended for 14 days or 5 half-lives after administration (whichever is longer)
- •If medical history, physical and psychiatric examination, or laboratory tests performed during the screening process are not within the normal range and / or reveal any significant illness (e.g., hypertension) as judged by the study physician and to put the participant at greater risk of experiencing adverse events due to completion of study procedures.

结局指标
主要结局
Analgesia
时间窗: 7 hours
Pain threshold and pain tolerance assessed with the Cold Pressor Test - time to report first feeling pain (0-180 seconds) and remove the hand from the cold water (0-180 seconds). Increased duration means increased pain tolerance and pain threshold.
Appetite stimulation
时间窗: 7 hours
Subjective ratings of hunger assessed with a visual analog scale (0-100 mm; 0 mm = no effect, 100 mm = maximum possible effect). Higher ratings indicate higher ratings of hunger / appetite stimulation.
Abuse liability
时间窗: 7 hours
Subject ratings of "Good Drug Effect" as measured using a visual analog scale (0-100 mm; 0 mm = no effect, 100 mm = maximum possible effect). Higher ratings indicate higher ratings of abuse liability.
次要结局
- Subjective ratings of intoxication(7 hours)
- Subjective ratings of pain(7 hours)
