AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Medical Cannabis Access & Education: Ohio’s cannabis executive director says legalization has shifted the fight to accurate, science-based risk education—especially for youth and pregnancy—after polling found rising use and falling perceived risk. Clinical Research & Trials: PleoPharma won a $6.5M NIDA grant to run a Phase 3 trial of PP-01 for cannabis withdrawal in patients with cannabis use disorder, while separate trial coverage highlights plant-derived CBD extract improving OCD symptoms and oral THC reducing PTSD nightmare frequency. Policy & Regulation Watch: FDA is asking for help monitoring marijuana and hemp posts on TikTok, Reddit, and Instagram, as regulators push for tighter oversight of online promotion. Industry Dealmaking: Christina Lake Cannabis entered a non-binding LOI to be acquired in a proposed $15M equity deal, with a court-approved plan of arrangement expected if talks proceed. Public Safety & Enforcement: TikTok ads allegedly promoted illegal drugs and controlled substances without prescriptions, and UK police seized a £500k underground cannabis grow near Coventry. UK Medical Milestone: Billy Caldwell, whose medicinal cannabis case helped legalize access in Britain, turns 21 and credits the treatment with ending his seizures.
