Notes: CBD, a non-psychoactive component of cannabis, has been explored for its potential therapeutic effects in cancer treatment, including anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and anti-nausea properties, as well as possible direct anti-tumor effects. While preclinical studies have shown promising results, including inhibition of tumor growth and synergistic effects with chemotherapy in models of glioblastoma and other cancers, conclusive evidence from clinical trials is needed to fully understand its efficacy and optimal use in cancer treatment.
