A Phase 1 Open-Label, Fixed-Sequence Pharmacokinetic Drug Interaction Trial to Investigate the Effect of Cannabidiol on the CYP1A2 Probe Caffeine in Healthy Subjects.

This pharmacokinetic (PK) drug-interaction trial investigated the effects of repeated dosing of a plant-derived pharmaceutical formulation of highly purified cannabidiol (CBD; Epidiolex in the United States and Epidyolex in Europe; 100 mg/mL oral solution) on caffeine clearance via modulation of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2 activity in healthy adults. In this phase 1 open-label, fixed-sequence trial, all subjects received a single 200 mg caffeine dose and placebo on day 1. Subjects then titrated CBD from 250 mg once daily to 750 mg twice daily between days 3 and 11 and took 750 mg CBD twice daily between days 12 and 27. On day 26, subjects received a single 200-mg caffeine dose with their morning CBD dose. Plasma concentrations of caffeine and its CYP1A2-mediated metabolite, paraxanthine, were determined on days 1 and 26 and PK parameters derived using noncompartmental analysis. Safety was monitored throughout. Sixteen subjects enrolled, and 9 completed treatment. When caffeine was administered with steady-state CBD, caffeine exposure increased by 15% for C
