Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of phytocannabinoids in the treatment of cancer. More particularly it relates to the use of phytocannabinoids in the treatment of tumour cell invasion and cell migration or metastases. Cancers, where invasion and cell migration plays a key role in prognosis include brain tumours, more particularly gliomas, and most particularly Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and breast cancers. The phytocannabinoids tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) and cannabidivarin (CBDV) alone or in combination with each other and/or other phytocannabinoids, particularly cannabidiol (CBD), tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabigerol (CBG) or their respective acids are of particular use.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of one or more cannabinoids in combination with one or more anti-psychotic medicaments for use in the prevention or treatment of psychosis and psychotic disorders. Preferably the one or more cannabinoids are taken from the group: cannabidiol (CBD); cannabidiolic acid (CBDA); tetrahydrocannbidivarin (THCV); tetrahydrocannbidivarinin acid (THCVA); cannabichromene (CBC); cannabichromenic acid (CBCA); cannabigerol (CBG) and cannabigerolic acid (CBGA). Preferably the anti-psychotic medication is an atypical anti-psychotic medication.

Abstract: In one aspect, the invention provides a method for preventing the transmission of HIV from one individual to another. In accordance with the method, a pharmacologically-acceptable composition including at least one resorcinol derivative compound and/or cannabinoid (e.g., cannabinol derivatives, &Dgr;8-THC derivatives, cannabichromene derivatives, cannabidiol derivatives, cannabigerol derivatives) (including combinations thereof) is administered topically to a first individual harboring HIV, or to a second individual at risk of infection with HIV, proximate in time with contact between the first individual and the second individual. The invention also provides topical formulations of at least one resorcinol and/or cannabinoid and water insoluble polymers as hydrogels.

Abstract: The invention is a product and a process wherein Medicinal Delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (?9-THC) and potentially other cannabinoids (medicinal cannabis substances) associated with decarboxylated cannabis, including yet not necessarily limited to cannbidiols, and cannabigerol are rendered into a fatty foodstuff and then molded into a mold that also acts as a package. The best mode of the invention is a blister pack containing a plurality of voids or receptacles of desired sizes. A product that is characterized by a controlled amount of medicinal cannabis per unit volume of a fatty foodstuff base material is inserted into the mold, then cooled, and finally sealed. Each void or receptacle contains a known amount of medicinal cannabis that are independently dispensable.

Abstract: The invention is a product and a process wherein cannabinoids such as Medicinal ?9-THC and/or other substances associated with medicinal cannabis, including yet not necessarily limited to cannbidiols, cannabigerol are contained or processed into foodstuffs or medicinal compounds in controlled ways and with specific characteristics. First a medicinal substance with a known about of medicinal cannabis is mixed into a foodstuff such that the medicinal cannabis is distributed uniformly in the foodstuff. Foodstuffs consistent with this invention include baked goods, hard candies, ice cream, bases, ice cream, and yogurt. The product is characterized by a controlled amount of cannabinoids per unit volume of the foodstuff. Another provision of the invention is providing controlled amounts or ratios of ?9-THC as compared to CBD in a foodstuff.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method, compounds, and compositions for treating a disease associated with immune dysfunction.

Also provided are methods of making the complex mixtures, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the complex mixture, and methods of using the pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of mast cell-related immune disorders, including allergy and atopy (allergic asthma, eczema, rhinitis), mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), physical and chemical urticarias, idiopathic urticaria, Crohn's disease, inflammatory bowel disorder, dermatitis and contact dermatitis, arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, canine mastocytosis, and allergy and inflammation in cattle, swine, etc. The methods of the present invention further relate to the treatment of various basophil-mediated immune disorders.

Abstract: A method of relieving analgesia and reducing inflammation using a cannabinoid delivery topical liniment composition containing from about 97.5% to about 99.5% by weight a 70% monohydric alcohol solution, and from about 0.5% to about 2.5% by weight of a synergistic cannabinoid mixture extracted from the female plant Cannabis sativa L, including in combination: 9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC), 9-THC Propyl Analogue (THC-V), Cannabidiol (CBD), Cannabidiol Propyl Analogue (CBD-V), Cannabinol (CBN), Cannabichromene (CBC), Cannabichromene Propyl Analogue (CBC-V), Cannabigerol (CBG), terpenoids, and flavonoids. The liniment is applied topically, preferably by spraying, and the constituents of the mixture are absorbed through the skin and interact with cannabinoid receptors in the body and tissues of a human patient to produce therapeutic analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects without undesirable psychotropic side effects.
