To evaluate the safety and efficacy of SCI-210 in the treatment of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)

Подробное описание

The innovative compound SCI-210 consists of CBD oil combined with CannAmide (PEA formulation) using the "entourage effect" to enhance efficacy of CBD. It is believed that PEA potentiates anandamide responses in non-vascular tissues. This effect is called "entourage effect". The "entourage effect" can be achieved by enhancing the action of endogenous anandamide through an increase in the affinity for receptors and/or a decrease in enzymatic degradation of anandamide (primarily by fatty acid amide hydrolase, FAAH). Thus, the combination of CBD oil with PEA is believed to be more effective than CBD oil alone, while AEs are not increased by the addition of the natural substance PEA.

SCI-210 has not been tested in clinical trials before, but anecdotal evidence of combined use of CBD and CannAmide in ASD patients has been accumulated in recent months. The evidence suggests the beneficial effects of the combination in alleviating ASD symptoms with no reported adverse events associated with the treatment.
