Testing THC and myrcene effects on the brain and behavior
Treatments studied
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This Phase 1 study tests how inhaled THC and a natural plant chemical called myrcene affect behavior, thinking, and safety in healthy adults. You may help researchers understand potential brain/behavior effects before larger studies.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 18 to 55 years old and agree in writing to join the study
- Be healthy overall based on exam, medical history, urine and blood tests, and usual body measures
- Have no drug or alcohol use at the study check-in (breath alcohol negative and other drugs negative, except cannabis as allowed)
- Not be pregnant or breastfeeding (if you could become pregnant, you must have a negative pregnancy test)
- Have BMI between 18 and 36, and blood pressure not above 150/90
- Be able to pass thinking/computer-style tests at screening (for example, scoring above the study’s PASAT target)

This study looks at how a cannabis extract affects brain activity in healthy young adults who use cannabis occasionally. It uses brain scans to understand changes and may help guide future treatments.
This study tests how inhaling cannabis changes your thinking and mood. It may help you understand how cannabis affects your brain.
This early-stage study tests whether THC and CBD affect memory in people who have used marijuana only occasionally in the last year. You may be asked to complete memory-related tasks and screening tests, including a urine test and an MRI scan if you can safely have one.
This trial looks at how marijuana and tobacco work together in your body. If you regularly use both cannabis and tobacco, you may help researchers understand their combined effects.
This study follows people who currently or used to smoke cannabis to see how cannabis use may change certain MRI scan signals in the brain over time. You may help researchers understand the effects of cannabis smoking and how brain imaging changes can be measured safely.
This Phase 2 study looks at how THC (from cannabis) changes brain signals during working memory tasks. It uses EEG and MEG (noninvasive brain recording) to understand changes in “neural noise” and how well information moves through memory networks.
