Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of CHI-914 in Healthy Participants
United States30 participantsStarted 2022-08-09
Plain-language summary
The purpose of the present study is to examine the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of cannabigerol (CBG; CHI-914), a naturally occurring chemical constituent of the cannabis plant formulated for oral consumption, in healthy adults. The study will utilize a within-subjects, placebo-controlled, double-blind, ascending-dose design.Upon enrollment, participants will complete 5 oral dosing conditions (placebo, 25, 50, 100, and 200 mg CBG). Each condition will consist of a single acute drug exposure, followed by an 8-hour period to evaluate acute pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic drug effects. This work will provide novel data on the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamic effects, and safety of acute oral CBG dose administration in humans.

. Be in good general health based on a physical examination, medical history, vital signs, and screening urine and blood tests.
. Test negative for recent cannabis use in urine at the screening visit and again upon admission for the experimental sessions.
. Test negative for other drugs of abuse, including alcohol, at the screening visit and upon arrival for the experimental session.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.

Behavioral task performance as assessed by the DRUID app
. Have a body mass index (BMI) in the range of 18 to 30 kg/m2.
. Blood pressure at Screening Visit does not exceed a systolic blood pressure (SBP) of 150 mmHg or a diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of 90 mmHg.
Exclusion criteria
. Non-medical use of psychoactive drugs other than, nicotine, alcohol, or caffeine in the 30-days prior to the Screening Visit.
. History of or current evidence of significant medical or psychiatric illness judged by the investigator to put the participant at greater risk of experiencing an adverse event due to exposure or completion of other study procedures.
. Endorse suicidal intent as indexed by endorsement of questions #4 and #5 on the C-SSRS.
. Use of an over-the-counter, systemic or topical drug(s), herbal supplement(s), or vitamin(s) within 14 days of experimental sessions; which, in the opinion of the investigator or sponsor, will interfere with the study result or the safety of the subject.
. Use of a prescription medication (with the exception of birth control prescriptions) within 14 days of experimental sessions; which, in the opinion of the investigator or sponsor, will interfere with the study result or the safety of the subject.
. History of clinically significant cardiac arrhythmias or vasospastic disease (e.g., Prinzmetal's angina).
. Enrolled in another clinical trial or have received any drug as part of a research study within 30 days prior to dosing.
. Epilepsy or a history of seizures.
