What this record can show
This locally preserved record separates the registered protocol from source-reported registry results. Neither is a treatment recommendation.
Registry facts
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.

Eligibility
primary outcomes
Time frame: 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.
Time frame: 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.
Time frame: 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.
secondary outcomes
Time frame: 7 hours
Subject ratings of "High" 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 intoxication.
Time frame: 7 hours
Subject ratings of Painfulness and Bothersomeness of the Cold Pressor Test. Scale is from 0 (Not painful / bothersome at all) to 10 (The most painful / bothersome feeling imaginable), higher ratings indicate greater painfulness and bothersomeness.
