Registered outcomes1

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryAverage Over Time of Intensity of Cannabis Use (Used to Evaluate Treatment Efficacy)Week 1 to week 12
Intensity of cannabis use is obtained for each week retrospectively as the number of joints smoked during the prior week (assessed by the Timeline Followback Scale). Mixed models are used to obtain estimates of efficacy from the partial data provided by each subject while adherent to assigned treatment (under the 'missing at random' assumption). The 'explanatory' estimands (target of the mixed model estimation) are defined in terms of population quantities that would have occurred had all subjects remained on assigned treatment throughout the study. The point estimate for each arm is reported under Number.
