Key points:
- 112 clinical trials of medical cannabis, cannabis extracts, or THC were identified in the clinicaltrials.gov database
- 43 different medical conditions were tested in the clinical trials. The diversity of diseases that have been tested with medical cannabis has greatly increased in the last decade.
- Trials of multiple sclerosis and neuropathic pain have decreased over the last decade, but there was a 140% increase in clinical trials of other diseases.
- Only 2% of trials were funded solely by the US federal government. The majority of funding came from non-US governments, nonprofits, or industry.
