Description

LIQUID CANNABIS COMPOSITIONS AND USES THEREOF Cross-Reference to Related Applications id="p-1" id="p-1" id="p-1" id="p-1" id="p-1" id="p-1"
[001] The present application gains priority from U.S Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 63/032,681 filed 31 May, 2020 which is incorporated by reference as if fully set- forth herein.
Field of the Invention id="p-2" id="p-2" id="p-2" id="p-2" id="p-2" id="p-2"
[002] The field of art to which this invention generally pertains is cannabinoid compositions, and more specifically to liquid cannabis compositions comprising at least two volatile terpenes and an oil-soluble carrier.
Background of the invention id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3"
[003] Cannabis inflorescence is typically classified according to the cannabis species from which the inflorescence is obtained i.e. Sativa or Indica. For example, the Israeli Ministry of Health guidelines for permitted cannabis products refer to Sativa inflorescence and Indica inflorescence. Sativa inflorescence products are considered to be suitable for daytime administration, while Indica inflorescence products are considered to be suitable for nighttime administration. The difference is not due to the respective cannabinoid contents. id="p-4" id="p-4" id="p-4" id="p-4" id="p-4" id="p-4"
[004] In contrast to cannabis inflorescence, commercially available cannabis oils are not generally classified according to the species from which they are derived, such that very few cannabis oils are specified as being Sativa cannabis oils or Indica cannabis oils. When such a distinction is made, the classification is based on the inflorescence from which the oil was prepared. One reason for the lack of distinction between Sativa and Indica oils in commercial products is that most of such oils contain a blend of extracts from inflorescence of the two species. However, a more important reason is that cannabis inflorescences contain significant amounts of nearly 20 different terpenes, having the formulae C H , C H O, C H and 16 10 18 15 24 C H O, wherein C terpenes are referred to as mono-terpenes and C terpenes are 26 10 15 sesquiterpenes. These terpenes differ considerably in their boiling points, which range between about 155ºC and about 320ºC. Furthermore, terpenes having the same chemical formula may 1 at least partially evaporate at ambient temperature.
Summary of the invention id="p-5" id="p-5" id="p-5" id="p-5" id="p-5" id="p-5"
[005] According to an aspect of some embodiments of the present invention, there is provided a liquid composition comprising: (i) at least one cannabinoid, wherein at least 50% by weight of said cannabinoid is in decarboxylated form; (ii) at least two volatile terpenes, each having a boiling point of less than 230ºC at atmospheric pressure; (iii) an oil-soluble carrier; and (iv) optionally, at least one non-volatile terpene having a boiling point of at least 230ºC at atmospheric pressure. wherein (a) a total volatile terpene to total cannabinoid weight/weight ratio is greater than 0.01:1.0; (b) wherein when said non-volatile terpene is present, the total volatile terpenes to total non-volatile terpenes weight/weight ratio is greater than 0.3:1.0.
According to an aspect of some embodiments of the present invention, there is provided a method of treating a subject during a selected period of a day, comprising administering to the subject during said selected period a liquid composition comprising: (i) at least one cannabinoid, wherein at least 50% by weight of said cannabinoid is in decarboxylated form; (ii) at least two volatile terpenes, each having a boiling point of less than 230C at atmospheric pressure; (iii) an oil-soluble carrier; and (iv) optionally, at least one non-volatile terpene having a boiling point of at least 230C at atmospheric pressure. wherein (a) a total volatile terpene to total cannabinoid weight/weight ratio is greater than 0.01:1.0; (b) wherein when said non-volatile terpene is present, the total volatile terpenes to total non-volatile terpenes weight/weight ratio is greater than 0.3:1.0. 2 Detailed description of the invention id="p-6" id="p-6" id="p-6" id="p-6" id="p-6" id="p-6"
[006] The present invention, in at least some embodiments thereof, relates to liquid cannabis compositions comprising at least two volatile terpenes and an oil-soluble carrier. id="p-7" id="p-7" id="p-7" id="p-7" id="p-7" id="p-7"
[007] During decarboxylation of extracted cannabinoids for oil preparation, relatively high temperatures, typically in the range of 100-140ºC are required, which are quite close to the boiling point of the volatile terpenes (which are less than or equal to 230ºC) but are far from the boiling points of the less volatile terpenes (which are greater than 230ºC). As a result, during decarboxylation, volatile temperatures are removed while the less volatile terpenes are at least partially retained. This therefore changes not only the total content of the terpenes and the ratio between total terpenes and cannabinoids (both of which decrease), but also results in a decrease of the relative proportion of the volatile terpenes in the total terpene mixture. id="p-8" id="p-8" id="p-8" id="p-8" id="p-8" id="p-8"
[008] The present Inventors have surprisingly found that important therapeutic properties are lost with that change in the proportion of the volatile terpenes, including distinction between composition that are better suited for administration at night and others that are better suited for administration during daytime. id="p-9" id="p-9" id="p-9" id="p-9" id="p-9" id="p-9"

[0069] Compositions were prepared as follows: I. Non-terpene-enriched ("NE") cannabis oil extracts: a. Inflorescence of a THCa-rich strain of Cannabis was extracted with ethanol at 10 volume of ethanol per unit weight of inflorescence. The residual plant material was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated by ethanol distillation to provide an extract. The extract was o winterized for removing waxes (kept in a freezer at -18 C for 24 hours and then filtered). Then, the extract was heated to 120°C for about an hour to convert THCa to THC (decarboxylation) so as to produce a THC-rich extract. The weight percent of THC in the THC-rich extract was determined using a standardized validated High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) procedure. b. CBD isolate was purchased from Clever Leaves (Colombia). CBD concentration was confirmed using a standardized validated High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) procedure. c. The THC-rich extract and the CBD isolate were mixed at various ratios and combined with olive oil to produce non-enriched (NE) extracts as controls as detailed in Table 7 below.
II. Terpene-enriched ("NE") cannabis oil extracts: a. Terpene isolates were purchased from Vigon International, Inc. (Pennsylvania) and concentrations were confirmed using a standardized, validated Gas Chromatography (GC) procedure. b. Terpene-enriched cannabis oil extracts (Examples 1-3, 12-14 and 19-20) were prepared by adding certain terpenes to the NE compositions as prepared above to produce the terpene- enriched extracts identified in the above examples as detailed in Tables 1, 5 and 6 above. id="p-70" id="p-70" id="p-70" id="p-70" id="p-70" id="p-70"
[0070] Test compositions according to Examples 1-3, 12-14 and 19-20 were administered to adult, human volunteers to test efficacy in the treatment and/or management of various conditions as specified below. id="p-71" id="p-71" id="p-71" id="p-71" id="p-71" id="p-71"
[0071] Efficacy of the test compositions was compared to that of non-enriched control compositions NE1, NE2, NE3 having the same THC and CBD content as that of the test compositions, with no terpene enrichment, as detailed in Table 7 below. Specifically, the compositions of Examples 1-3 were compared to control composition NE1; the compositions of Examples 12-14 were compared to control composition NE2; and the compositions of Examples 19-20 were compared to control composition NE3. 18 enriched" may naturally comprise low amounts (less than 0.1%) of volatile terpenes upon preparation from cannabis plant material. Thus the term "non-enriched" is intended to refer to compositions to which no volatile terpenes are artificially added.

[0073] Subjects and questionnaires a. All subjects were Israeli patients, each of whom had been issued a license to use medical cannabis for the treatment of chronic pain, neuronal disease, neuronal damage, cancer, or trauma, by the Israeli Ministry of Health. b. Subjects eligible for participation in these studies were required to currently be on a regimen of non-enriched (NE) cannabis oils (NE1, NE2 or NE3, sublingually administered) for the treatment of chronic pain, neuronal disease, neuronal damage, cancer, or trauma. NE cannabis oils were self-administered by each subject, at home. Each subject completed questionnaires to assess the efficacy of their current NE cannabis oil treatment. Each subject 19 treatment. Average dose of the NE cannabis oil treatment was about 4.2 drops. c. Subjects were then provided with a terpene-enriched oil according to one of examples 1-3, 12-14 and 19-20. The assignment of terpene-enriched oil to each subject was based on the THC/CBD ratio of the subject’s current NE cannabis oil treatment. Subjects were instructed to self-administer the terpene-enriched oils at home for 1 week, starting with the same or similar doses and frequencies as those they had followed for the NE cannabis oil treatment. After 1 week, subjects were instructed to continue self-administration of the terpene-enriched oils and to complete questionnaires to assess the efficacy of the terpene-enriched oil treatment. Each subject completed questionnaires for 5 days of the continued terpene-enriched treatment, each questionnaire referring to the previous day’s treatment. Average dose of terpene-enriched cannabis oil was 3.8 drops. d. Pain treatment efficacy questionnaire: Subjects having been issued a license to use medical cannabis for the treatment of pain related to chronic pain, neuronal disease, neuronal damage, or cancer, i.e., muscle pain, joint pain, migraine, neuropathic pain, abdominal pain, were asked to rate their pain relief efficacy on a scale of -10 to 10 using an extended Visual Analog Scale/Numeric Pain rating Scale (VAS/NPRS), which is customary in the field of pain management and treatment. With this scale, "10" indicated no pain, while "-10" indicates major worsening of pain. e. Depression/Anxiety efficacy questionnaire: Subjects having been issued a license to use medical cannabis for the treatment of depression and/or anxiety related to chronic pain, neuronal disease, neuronal damage, cancer, or trauma were asked to rate their mood and/or calmness using a -8 to 8 scale, which is customary in the field of mood and anxiety management and treatment. f. Sleep efficacy questionnaire: Subjects having been issued a license to use medical cannabis for the treatment of sleep-related issues related to chronic pain, neuronal disease, neuronal damage, cancer, or trauma were asked to rate their sleep quality, time to falling asleep, overall sleep time, sleep continuity, and/or next day alertness using a -8 to 8 scale, which is customary in the field of sleep management and treatment.
Results are presented in Tables 8-10 below.
As seen from Tables 8-10, improvements observed in each study were markedly better for the terpene-enriched test compositions, as compared to the non- enriched (NE) control compositions.
Table 11 presents data averaged across all subjects for all NE and terpene-enriched cannabis oils and t-test values comparing efficacy or the NE oils to that of the terpene-enriched oils. The t-test indicates that the terpene-enriched oils were statistically significantly superior to the NE oils.
