To Characterize the Acute and Short-term Effects of Cannabidiol (CBD) Administration on Cue-induced Craving in Drug-abstinent Heroin-dependent Humans
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating CBD 400 mg, CBD 800 mg, and 1 other intervention for Opiate Addiction. Completed, enrolled 45 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Despite the current available therapies for opioid-dependent patients, most patients relapse. This research project focuses on the development of a novel compound, cannabidiol, to modulate opioid craving in humans based on animal models showing its selective effectiveness to inhibit drug-seeking behavior. The development of a targeted treatment for opioid relapse would be of tremendous medical and public health value.
