简要总结
The goal of this open label clinical trial is to reduce the effects of restless leg syndrome. The main it questions it aims to answer are:
- Reduce or eliminate the symptoms of restless leg syndrome.
- Improve the quality of life of participants with restless leg syndrome.
Participants will be asked to apply the topical cream to the affected area 30 to 45 minutes before bedtime for 14 consecutive days.
详细描述
Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS) is multifactorial disease state with many different potential pathophysiological mechanisms, which includes dysfunctions from the cerebral cortex and spinal cord to mechanosensitive channels at the musculoskeletal periphery.1 Most therapeutic agents' effectiveness focuses on the CNS (e.g., dopaminergic drugs) or Renshaw cells. To our knowledge, therapeutic agents that are focused on the periphery were not very effective.
This technology focuses on the peripheral musculoskeletal component of the disease and is directed at treatment modalities that correct the dysfunction of mechanosensitive channels. By combining what is known about cannabinoids activity at the transient receptor potential channel of ankyrin 1 (TRPA1)2 and the role TRPA1 plays in regulating the shape and rigidity of the surrounding membrane structure at the Piezo channels3, an effective therapy at the site of discomfort should emerge. Moreover, the lessening of membrane tension is imparted by molecules that readily penetrate the membrane4, which Chylobinoid, the topical active ingredient, is uniquely designed to do.

研究组 & 干预措施
Benefits of a Cannabidiolic Acid Topical Cream for the Treatment of Restless Leg Syndrome
Topical of application of cream to effected area 30-45 minutes before bedtime
干预措施: Chylobinoid Topical Cream (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Change of Restless Leg Syndrome
时间窗: 14 days
Severity of restless leg syndrome will be measured using the international restless leg syndrome questionnaire. It is a 10 question scale that is scored from 0 to 5 with 4 representing the most severe symptoms and 0 representing the least.
次要结局
- Patient Quality of Life in response to treatment(14 days)
