简要总结
The purposes of the study are 1) to know the concentrations of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabidiol (CBD) and other cannabinoids in blood, urine, oral fluid and sweat after the experimental administration of a standardized cannabis preparation orally (decoction and oil) and vaporized 2) to evaluate the pharmacological acute effects and tolerability
详细描述
Medical cannabis" encompasses the use of cannabis and cannabinoids for therapeutic purposes. Includes drugs approved by regulatory agencies and pharmaceutical products. Recently, many countries have authorized the use of cannabis flower cups with a standardized amount of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabidiol (CBD) and their acidic precursors (Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid A [THCA] and cannabidiol acid [ CBDA]) for the treatment of different diseases. In Italy since January 2017 there has been for sale a standardized cannabis preparation produced by the Military Pharmaceutical Institute of Florence. This medicinal variety of cannabis sativa, known as FM2 has a variable THC and CBD percentage of between 5-8% and 7-12% respectively. To date, there are no studies on the pharmacokinetics of THC, CBD and other minor cannabinoids in conventional and unconventional biological matrices after oral administration of cannabis tea, cannabis oil and vaporized with the same medicinal preparation (FM2). The main objective is to know the concentrations of THC, CBD and metabolites, and other cannabinoids in blood, urine, oral fluid and sweat after the experimental administration of a standardized cannabis preparation orally (two formulations: cannabis tea and cannabis oil) and vaporized. In addition, the acute pharmacological effects and tolerability will be evaluated. Healthy recreational cannabis users with experience in oral use of cannabis will participate

Minor or specific variations of the limits of normality are admitted if, in the opinion of the Principal Investigator, taking into account the state of science, they do not have clinical significance, do not pose a risk to the subjects and do not interfere with the evaluation of the product. These variations and their non-relevance will be specifically justified in writing.
