The goal of this pilot study is to explore the feasibility and acceptability of a medicinal
cannabis clinical trial into easing the symptoms of children undergoing palliative care for
non-oncological conditions. The trial will evaluate the study design including recruitment
strategy, medication tolerability, duration and outcomes to determine acceptability and
feasibility for participating families. The data collected will then be used to design a
full-scale multi-centre trial.
Participants will be randomly allocated to receive one of two medicinal cannabis products.
Neither the participants nor researchers will know the study drug allocation until the end of
the trial.
