Cannabis compounds for brain protection after concussion
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision, Injuries & trauma, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests whether natural cannabis compounds can help protect the brain after a concussion in male contact-sport athletes. It requires you to be healthy, not a regular cannabis user, and free of certain medical conditions.

This study tests how a natural compound found in plants, called myrcene, affects the body's response to THC (the active ingredient in cannabis). It may help us understand how these substances work together.
This study looks at how a single session of exercise affects brain function and memory in regular cannabis users compared to non-users. You will exercise on a bike or watch a movie, and then do memory tests and a blood draw.
This early study tests whether a brain-stimulation method can help after recovery from a mild to moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI), sometimes called concussion. It also may include healthy volunteers to compare safety and computer-based brain measures.
This study looks at how cannabis use affects brain activity and attention. It compares heavy users and non-users to understand the effects on memory and focus.
This study compares three treatments for persistent headaches that start after a head injury: a nerve-stimulating device (gammaCore), a cannabis-derived product (CBD), and standard care. It aims to see which treatment works best to reduce headache days and pain.
