A Study Testing the Effects of Different THC Doses on Psychological and Biological Function
NCT07346690 · Status: NOT_YET_RECRUITING · Phase: PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 24
Last updated 2026-01-16
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how a investigational medicinal product (THC) affects psychological and physical responses in healthy adults with prior cannabis use experience. The main questions it aims to answer are:
\- How do different dose levels of the investigational medicinal product (THC) influence short-term subjective and physiological responses?
Researchers will compare three dose levels of the study drug to a placebo (a look-alike substance with no active ingredient) to see how responses vary across sessions.
Participants will:
* Attend four in-person study visits, each involving a single dose of either the study drug or placebo
* Complete questionnaires about their moment-to-moment experiences
* Have their heart rate, blood pressure, and other physical measures monitored
* Undergo serial blood sampling to measure circulating biomarkers
Conditions
- Evaluate PK Profile
- Evaluate PD Profile
- Healthy Adults
- Safety and Tolerability in Healthy Volunteers
Interventions
- DRUG
-
AVCN319301b (6mg)
AVCN319301b is a standardized oral capsule containing a precise dose of Δ9-THC.
- DRUG
-
AVCN319301b (9mg)
AVCN319301b is a standardized oral capsule containing a precise dose of Δ9-THC.
- DRUG
-
AVCN319301b (15mg)
AVCN319301b is a standardized oral capsule containing a precise dose of Δ9-THC.
- DRUG
-
The matched placebo is an oral capsule identical in appearance to the active study drug and contains the same non-medicinal ingredients but no Δ9-THC. It is manufactured to match the active capsules in size, color, taste, and packaging to maintain blinding for participants and study staff.
