COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Jan. 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- (NASDAQ OTC: CBIS) Cannabis Science, Inc., a U.S. Company specializing in cannabis formulation-based drug development, proudly announces plans for international observational studies and research in 2014.
Cannabis Science is a cannabinoid portfolio company. Plans announced by Cannabis Science to launch an observational clinical research study in 2014 will focus on patient driven use of cannabis and cannabis based products and the clinical outcomes of such use for a variety of medical conditions. Cannabis Science will seek additional funding partners as well as academic and clinical collaborators for this project.
Cannabis Science has been continuously conducting research into on cannabis and cannabinoids and in 2013 has also filed an application of a cannabinoid based patent and believes there is an enormous potential for the extension of its portfolio and filing of further patents.
The direction of Cannabis Science is supported by Dr. Sanjay Gupta's reversing his original position on cannabis from believing that it was harmful to supporting the use of medical cannabis. Further, the overall medical industry is moving towards accepting cannabis and cannabinoid based products as medicines. The number of cannabinoid-based products in pharmaceutical development is increasing, and Cannabis Science plans to join the ranks with its own products.
"This observational study will focus on applied cannabis based medication for a number of diseases. We will work with full authorization of the regulatory authorities and, most importantly, with the approval from patients, in order to show that Cannabis Science products are the best choice on the market," stated Prof. Robert Melamede, Ph.D., President of Cannabis Science, Inc.
