Patent number: 11865102Abstract: Cannabidiol (CBD) is a cannabinoid designated chemically as 2-[(IR,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: GrantFiled: November 17, 2021Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: GW Research LimitedInventors: Geoffrey Guy, Volker Knappertz, Benjamin Whalley, Marie Woolley-Roberts, James Brodie, Katarzyna Lach-Falcone, Alan Sutton, Royston Gray, Rohini Rajyalaxmi Rana

Patent number: 11752111Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of cannabidivarin (CBDV) in the treatment of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and ASD-associated disorders such as Fragile X syndrome (FXS); Rett syndrome (RS); or Angelman syndrome (AS). In a further embodiment the invention relates to the use of CBDV in the treatment of schizophrenia. CBDV has been shown to be particularly effective in improving cognitive dysfunction in rodent models of ASD, FXS, RS, AS and schizophrenia. The CBDV is preferably substantially pure. It may take the form of a highly purified extract of cannabis such that the CBDV is present at greater than 95% of the total extract (w/w) and the other components of the extract are characterised. Alternatively, the CBDV is synthetically produced.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 2017Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: GW RESEARCH LIMITEDInventors: Geoffrey Guy, Stephen Wright, James Brodie, Marie Woolley-Roberts, Rafael Maldonado, Daniela Parolaro, Livio Luongo, Joanna Neill

Publication number: 20230263744Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of cannabidiol (CBD) in the treatment of Angelman syndrome (AS). CBD has been shown to be particularly effective in improving anxiety in rodent models of AS. The CBD is preferably substantially pure. It may take the form of a highly purified extract of Cannabis such that the CBD is present at greater than 98% of the total extract (w/w) and the other components of the extract are characterised. Alternatively, the CBD is synthetically produced. Alternatively, the CBD may be used as a botanical drug substance (BDS) from a Cannabis plant in which CBD is the predominant cannabinoid. The CBD may also be present in combination with other cannabinoids and non-cannabinoid components such as terpenes. In use the CBD may be used concomitantly with one or more other medicaments. Alternatively, the CBD may be formulated for administration separately, sequentially or simultaneously with one or more medicaments or the combination may be provided in a single dosage form.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 2, 2023Publication date: August 24, 2023Inventors: Geoffrey Guy, Stephen Wright, James Brodie, Marie Woolley-Roberts, Livio Luongo

Patent number: 3969025Abstract: A wax applicating device adapted for applying a coating of melted wax to the lower surface of skis, toboggans, or the like. The subject device avoids the problems normally associated with the application of solid wax to a surface of a ski, particularly at the skiing site. To achieve this, the subject invention provides a portable device adapted to apply a coating of melted wax to a surface to be waxed. The wax applicating device according to the subject invention comprises a holder adapted to receive a quantity of solid wax; a wax applicating head adapted to engage a surface to be waxed; and heater means operatively associated with the holder. The heater means is adapted to melt solid wax situated in the holder, whereby melted wax passes through an opening in the holder to the wax applicating head for application to a surface to be waxed.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 1975Date of Patent: July 13, 1976Inventor: James A.
