Efficacy of Cannabidiol Combination with Cisplatin or Paclitaxel against Platinum-Resistant Ovarian Cancer Cell Lines
Published 2022“…The results suggest the potential benefit of sequential, rather than simultaneous, administration of CBD and chemotherapy to enhance therapy and overcome resistance. These findings, while demonstrating the potential benefit of CBD in treating ovarian cancer, call for additional caution when combining it with chemotherapeutic agents, specifically cisplatin and paclitaxel, as the effect is shown to be cell line and drug specific. …”
