There has been a lot of interest into whether cannabinoids might be useful as a cancer treatment. The scientific research done so far has been laboratory research, with mixed results, so we do not know if cannabinoids can treat cancer in people.

A Cochrane review in 2015 looked at all the research available looking into cannabis-based medicine as a treatment for nausea and sickness in people having chemotherapy for cancer. It reported that many of the studies were too small. Or not well run to be able to say how well these medicines work. They say that they may be useful if all other medicines are not working.

Claims that cannabis oil cures cancer are anecdotal and largely unsupportable, based on scant research done in mice and in labs. Side effects can include memory and attention loss. Perhaps most important, there is evidence that cannabis compounds may inhibit enzymes that patients need to metabolize other anticancer drugs, thereby increasing their toxicity or reducing their effectiveness.

The hype: Laetrile, first popularized as a cancer therapy in Russia and the United States more than a century ago, is the trade name for a purified form of amygdalin, an extract derived from apricot pits and some nuts and plants. Intestinal enzymes break down Laetrile to produce cyanide, which proponents claim kills cancer cells and leaves normal tissue unharmed. Some also claim that Laetrile is actually a vitamin called B-17 and that deficiencies can cause certain cancers. Banned in the United States, an oral form of Laetrile is available in other countries.

Meanwhile, hemp seed oil comes from the seeds of the Cannabis sativa plant. The seeds do not contain CBD, but they still have a rich profile of nutrients, fatty acids, and useful bioactive compounds that can also have health benefits.

Cancer Research UK does not have an organisational policy on the legal status of cannabis, its use as a recreational drug, or its medical use diseases other than cancer. But we are supportive of properly conducted scientific research into cannabis and its derivatives that could benefit cancer patients and we will continue to monitor developments in the fields and evidence as it emerges.

Cannabis is a plant grown and cultivated commercially across the globe. It is known by many names depending on its preparation and quality, including marijuana, trees, pot, dank, grass, green, kush, weed, hemp, hash, loud, and herb. These usually refer to the dried form or resin of the flowers or leaves of the plant.

This is why some researchers think that cannabinoids have the potential to control some of the most common and debilitating symptoms of cancer and its treatments, including nausea and vomiting, loss of appetite, and pain.

In the past, Cancer Research UK has funded research into cannabinoids, notably the work of Professor Chris Paraskeva in Bristol investigating the properties of cannabinoids as part of his research into the prevention and treatment of bowel cancer. He has published a number of papers detailing lab experiments looking at endocannabinoids as well as THC, and written a review looking at the potential of cannabinoids for treating bowel cancer.

This is because most people who use cannabis smoke it mixed with tobacco, a substance that we know causes cancer. Data from 2016 has shown that 77% of UK people surveyed (who smoke weed) reported normally mixing it with tobacco.

In some parts of the world, medical marijuana has been legalised for relieving pain and symptoms (palliative use), including cancer pain. But one of the problems with using herbal cannabis is managing the dose. Smoking cannabis or taking it in the form of tea often provides an inconsistent dose, which may make it difficult for patients to monitor their intake. So, researchers are turning to alternative dosing methods, such as mouth sprays, which deliver a reliable and regulated dose.

But we are supportive of properly conducted scientific research into cannabis and its derivatives that could benefit cancer patients and we will continue to monitor developments in the fields and evidence as it emerges.

If someone chooses to complete reject conventional cancer treatment in favour of unproven alternatives, they may miss out on treatment that could save or significantly lengthen their life. They may also miss out on effective symptom relief to control pain or other problems.

We understand the desire to try every possible avenue when conventional cancer treatment fails. But there is little chance that an unproven alternative treatment bought online will help, and it may well harm. We recommend that cancer patients talk to their doctor about clinical trials that they may be able to join, giving them access to new drugs in a safe and monitored environment.

This myth is unjust to the thousands of scientists, doctors and nurses working as hard as they can to beat cancer, and to the many thousands of people in the UK and beyond who give up their time and money to fund our work.

History shows that the best way to beat cancer is through rigorous scientific research. This approach has helped to change the face of cancer prevention, diagnosis, treatment, leading to increased survival in the last few decades.

As a research-based organisation, we want to see reliable scientific evidence to support claims made about any cancer treatment, be it conventional or alternative. This is vital because lives are at stake. Some people may think that a cancer patient has nothing to lose by trying an alternative treatment, but there are big risks.

I think it is the antidotal nature of the reports and the general lack of documentation that raises my suspicions on the credibility of the stories. Since being involved in this area over the past four years, we have been unable to substantiate a single case of cannabis curing or even substantially impact on the course of a cancer diagnosis. There have been many cases that sound promising, and we have wanted to do case reports on his individuals. However, as we dug into the stories and saw some documented evidence it never panned out. The most common outcomes were the cancer patients continue to do the standard of care treatment, together with cannabinoids, and their outcome was what one would expect. In these cases, the patient believed it was the cannabinoids and not the standard of care that was responsible for the improvement [even in the face of well-documented evidence that their conventional treatment was expected to give them the result they wanted]. The other situation we have seen has been patients who think they still have cancer after their standard of care treatment and that the cannabinoid therapy cured them of the remaining disease. However, in these cases, there was no evidence of disease following standard care treatment. I am a fan of cannabinoids and think we are just scratching the surface of its medical benefits [i.e. it has only been approved for very few things so far], but stories that tout miracle-like cures muddy the water, create false hope and is consistently used against those who want to take an evidence-based approach, making our jobs more difficult, not easier.

I find your point around not much evidence of human trials, insulting as maybe you need to dig a little deeper, and look into the cancer groups online as there are thousands of people taking cannabis oil, including my wife who has stage 4 glioblastoma.

I have stage 4 terminal breast cancer that spread from top to bottom of skull. Projecting centrally towards brain. It is also in my ribs & spine. I would gladly become a Guinea pig for Cannabis to try & extend my life. I was given 2& half yrs which is up now but still fighting. My treatment with Ribociclib + a hormone suppressant is controlling or lessening thickness between skull/ brain. Is there any research done with cannabis for my diagnosis My meds will only control for a certain time. Then what

The main point to realise is that virtually all these studies have been done in cancer cells grown in the lab or in animals. These are quite artificial systems and are much less complex than a real cancer growing in a patient.

Breast Cancer This is a study with human breast cancer cell lines grown in the lab and mice that have been transplanted with mouse mammary (breast) cancer cells from a cell line.

This is a study looking at whether samples of human breast tumours carry the receptors for cannabinoids. The researchers also test the effects of a synthetic cannabinoid on human breast cancer cells lines grown in the lab, and in mice that have been transplanted with a breast cancer cell line.

+html This papers looks at the effects of cannabinoids on human breast cancer and leukaemia cell lines grown in the lab, and also on mice that have been transplanted with rat thyroid cells that have been infected with a virus to make them cancerous, or cells from a human breast cancer cell line.

-cancer.com/content/9/1/196 This study investigates whether samples of human breast cancers carry cannabinoid receptors. The researchers also test cannabinoids (THC and a synthetic cannabinoid) in genetically modified mice that are prone to developing breast cancers.

Lung Cancer =Abstract This paper looks at the effects of cannabidiol (CBD) on human lung cancer cell lines, and also mice that have been transplanted with cells from a lung cancer line.

This study looked at the effects of THC and a synthetic cannabinoid on two pancreatic cancer cells lines grown in the lab, and also in mice that had been transplanted with cells from a pancreatic cancer line. The researchers also show that human pancreatic cancer samples contain cann
