Glioma is a brain cancer which is very aggressive and long term survival rates are low because the standard treatments for glioma are largely unsuccessful.
It is known that cannabinoids can specifically inhibit glioma growth and neutralize part of the cancer process. This study set out to determine the effect of treating glioma cancer cells with THC and CBD.
These in vitro results demonstrated that glioma cells are more susceptible to radiation therapy after being treated with both THC & CBD, and that there is a potential clinical benefit of these 2 modalities for glioma patients.
