简要总结
Short-term, hospital-based, open-label comparative study designed to assess the effectiveness and safety of adding Cannabidiol (CBD) to standard Opioid Agonist Treatment (OAT) in reducing craving, withdrawal symptoms, and anxiety in individuals with opioid dependence. The study aims to recruit 70 male patients (aged 18-60) diagnosed with Opioid Dependence (ICD-11: 6C43.20). These participants will be randomized into two groups for the 10-day study period: Group 1 (n=35) receiving 800mg CBD plus OAT (T. Buprenorphine 2 mg + T. Naloxone 0.5 mg), and Group 2 (n=35) receiving OAT alone.The core objectives are to compare the reduction in opioid craving, withdrawal symptoms, and anxiety levels between the two groups at five specific time points: baseline, 2 hours post-dose on Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, and on Day 10. A comprehensive set of validated scales will be used for measurement: craving will be assessed by the Heroin Craving Questionnaire-Short Form 14 (HCQ-SF-14), Desire for Drug Questionnaire (DDQ), and Obsessive Compulsive Drug Use Scale (OCDUS); withdrawal severity will be tracked with the Clinical Opioid Withdrawal Scale (COWS); and anxiety will be quantified using the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A). The Systematic Assessment for Treatment Emergent Events (SAFTEE) will also be employed to monitor side effects. This research is significant as it seeks to provide formal clinical evidence for CBD in the context of the unique treatment challenges and high prevalence of opioid use in India.
