Brain Cancer Research-2006 Jul

In 2006, the first clinical study aimed at assessing cannabinoid antitumoral action, specifically a pilot phase in which nine patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme were administered THC. Background: Patients had previously failed standard therapy (surgery and radiotherapy) and had clear evidence of tumour progression. The primary end point of the study was to determine the safety ..

Skin Cancer-2003 Jan

In 2003, study shows that the CB1 and the CB2 receptor are expressed in normal skin and skin tumors of mice and humans. Background: The expression of cannabinoid receptors in epidermal cell lines, normal skin, and skin tumors of mice and humans was examined by Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry.
