Evaluating Efficacy and Safety of CBD TPM Capsules for Use in Insomnia
Australia519 participantsStarted 2024-05-16
Plain-language summary
Insomnia is a common sleep disorder in which a person has difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep or getting good quality sleep. Consequences of insomnia include daytime sleepiness, poor memory function, decline in concentration with negative impacts on social and work activities. Although medical cannabis and cannabis products are widely used worldwide for the management of symptoms associated with insomnia, there is little clinical data available to support the efficacy or utility of CBD in the management of sleep disorders. The proposed study will assess whether nightly doses of 75mg or 150mg of an 8 week period are able to improve patient reported sleep quality when compared to a placebo.

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.
What they're measuring
1
Mean change from study baseline of insomnia severity index (ISI) score at 8 weeks
Timeframe: 8 weeks
2
Mean change from study baseline in subject sleep efficiency (sSE) at 8 weeks
. Subjects must have clinical insomnia symptoms as classified by an insomnia severity index (ISI) Score of ≥15.
. Confirmation of current insomnia symptoms as determined from the Sleep Diary completed on at least 7 consecutive mornings (minimum 5 of 7 for eligibility), such that sSOL ≥30 minutes on at least 3 of the 7 nights and/or sWASO ≥30 minutes on at least 3 of the 7 nights.
Exclusion criteria
. Significant insomnia caused during another sleep-wake disorder, including narcolepsy, a breathing-related sleep disorder, a circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorder, a parasomnia, restless leg syndrome, or an exclusionary score on the Sleep Disorders Screening Battery, or Epworth Sleepiness Scale score as follows:
. Reports symptoms potentially related to narcolepsy that in the clinical opinion of the Investigator indicates the need for referral for a diagnostic evaluation for the presence of narcolepsy.
. Reports a history of sleep-related violent behavior, or sleep driving, or any other complex sleep-related behavior, e.g., making phone calls, or preparing and eating food while asleep.
