This study is a randomized, controlled clinical trial to examine the therapeutic potential of cannabinoids for treating veterans with PTSD and suicidal ideation.
In this clinical trial, we will recruit veterans with PTSD who report using cannabis or have interest in trying cannabis for symptom relief. Veterans will be randomized into one of four different groups: THC (∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol), CBD (cannabidiol), THC+CBD, and Placebo, and undergo a 12-week treatment phase where they will be asked to smoke their assigned cannabis dose every day for 12 weeks. Participants will complete weekly questionnaires regarding their mood, behavior and drug consumption. Furthermore, there is a laboratory component that will assess cognition, fear conditioning, and other PTSD-related measures.

| Assessing change in PTSD diagnosis and its symptom severity from pre-treatment to post-treatment using the CAPS-5 assessment. | PTSD diagnosis will be assessed using the Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale (CAPS-5) for DSM-5 Total Severity Score, a well-validated, semi-structured clinician interview that determines the presence and severity of PTSD symptoms and diagnosis consistent with the DSM-5 and allows for assessing changes in symptom severity over time. | Administered at a pre-treatment visit (at the initial screening visit); and at the four post-treatment visits (one week post-treatment and 3-, 6-, and 9-months post-treatment visits). |
| Assessing change in PTSD diagnosis and its symptom severity throughout the study using the PCL-5 assessment | The PCL-5 is a 20-item self-report measure that assesses DSM-5 symptoms of PTSD. The PCL-5 is used to monitor symptom change during and after treatment, screen individuals for PTSD, and make a provisional PTSD diagnosis. This assessment will also be used as a safety measure at all visits by assessing PTSD symptom severity. | Administered at every study visit: both pre-treatment visits (the initial screening and baseline visit); during the 12-week treatment phase (all twelve weekly visits); and the four post-treatment visits (one week post-treatment and 3-, 6-, and 9-months |
| Assessing Suicidality over time using the C-SSRS assessment. | The Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) is a clinician-administered interview assessing suicidal thoughts and behaviors over time. A baseline form is used to assess lifetime suicidal ideation, intensity, and behavior, and can be compared to current suicidal ideation and intensity assessed over the clinical trial. | Administered at a pre-treatment visit (at the initial screening visit); and at the four post-treatment visits (one week post-treatment and 3-, 6-, and 9-months post-treatment visits). |
| Assessing Suicidality throughout the study using the SBQ-R assessment. | The Suicide Behavior Questionnaire-Revised (SBQ-R) is a brief (4-item), self-administered questionnaire that taps into four dimensions of suicidality (lifetime ideation/attempt, frequency of recent ideation, risk of suicide attempt and self-reported likelihood of future suicidal behavior). This assessment will also be used as a safety measure at all visits by assessing suicidality. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Assess emotional state pre- and post-treatment using the PANAS questionnaire. | The Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) is a 20-item self-report questionnaire, widely used measure of emotional state, which has excellent psychometric properties. | Administered at a pre-treatment visit (at the baseline visit); and at the first post-treatment visit (one week post-treatment). |
