NCT03699527

Brief Summary

The overall goals of this research is to describe the 1) natural history of current use and disposition of medical cannabis products including Cannabidiol (CBD) products, being administered to children as standard of care for the treatment of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), 2) understand the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics of medical cannabis products and 3) provide educational feedback on what is learned to families and care providers to provide evidenced based dosing guidance for these products to the pediatric community.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Number of children with ASD who use medical cannabis

    The primary objective is to create a registry that will describe the natural history and landscape of medical cannabis and CBD use in the pediatric ASD population.

    5 years

  • Maximum Cannabinoid concentrations in pediatric patients with ASD

    The PK profile of select medical cannabis products in pediatric patients with ASD will be assessed. PK sampling may be performed in the home or at a CHOP site. All Subjects will undergo PK sampling at predetermined times for the determination of cannabinoid concentrations based on the formulation that is being consumed (e.g. If a subject is taking only CBD, Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) concentrations will not be measured). PK samples will be obtained either using a micro-sampling approach (home or CHOP) or from an indwelling catheter (CHOP site

    5 years

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of families who complete the educational program to assess epidemiologic outcomes

    5 years
