There was a misplaced reference in the original article in the first paragraph of Section 6 “Clinical Trials with CBD” [1]. By misplacing reference 138 in the original article, an inaccurate interpretation of the study was made.
The amendment is listed below, to which in addition, a sentence has been removed in order to maintain the paragraph’s readability:
“Due to its non-psychoactive characteristics, CBD is superior to other cannabinoids in clinical applications. A double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical phase I trial has been started to prove its safety and capability to relieve tumor-related adverse effects at a CBD concentration of 100 mg/mL, within a dose range of 50 mg to 600 mg per day, in 2 weeks [138].”
The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused and state that the conclusions of the original article have been unaffected. The original publication has been updated.
