B.C.’s leading agency in cancer research is looking for patients to take part in a clinical trial to study the effectiveness of cannabis oils in treating cancer-related symptoms and pain management.
Eligible participants must be at least 19 years old, and commit to not taking any other cannabis products or consuming alcohol for the duration of the study, roughly 16 to 48 days.
The study will be looking at how oils treat nausea, sleep disturbance and anxiety, as well as pain.
Those who are pregnant or are currently receiving chemotherapy or radiation treatment are ineligible for the clinical trial. Anyone with allergies to cannabis, olive oil, rosemary oil or coconut also won’t be allowed to participate.
