Publication number: 20210052512Abstract: Cannabidiol (CBD) is a cannabinoid designated chemically as 2-[(1R,6R)-3-Methyl-6-(1-methylethenyl)-2-cyclohexen-1-yl]-5-pentyl-1,3-benzenediol. Its empirical formula is C21H30O2 and its molecular weight is 314.46. CBD is a cannabinoid that naturally occurs in the Cannabis sativa L. plant. CBD is a white to pale yellow crystalline solid which is insoluble in water and soluble in organic solvents. The present invention encompasses the surprising recognition that certain CBD preparations which are prepared from a botanical origin are more effective in treating diseases or disorders than preparations of CBD which are synthetic or purified to the extent no other impurities in the form of other cannabinoids are present. Prior CBD compositions have been prepared such that no psychoactive components, e.g., tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), remain in the final CBD preparation. Surprisingly, the absence of such minor impurities reduces the efficacy of CBD treatment.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2019Publication date: February 25, 2021Inventors: Geoffrey GUY, Volker KNAPPERTZ, Benjamin WHALLEY, Marie WOOLLEY-ROBERTS, James BRODLE, Katarzyna LACH-FALCONE, Alan SUTTON, Royston GRAY, Rohini Rajyalaxmi RANA

Publication number: 20190282816Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for renal neuromodulation using a pulsed electric field to effectuate electroporation or electrofusion. It is expected that renal neuromodulation (e.g., denervation) may, among other things, reduce expansion of an acute myocardial infarction, reduce or prevent the onset of morphological changes that are affiliated with congestive heart failure, and/or be efficacious in the treatment of end stage renal disease. Embodiments of the present invention are configured for extravascular delivery of pulsed electric fields to achieve such neuromodulation.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 28, 2019Publication date: September 19, 2019Inventors: Mark Deem, Denise Zarins, Douglas Sutton, Hanson Gifford, III, Howard R.
