Trial summary

Really few data published to date on the passage of CBD into breast milk. The investigators known that 17.5 percent of the French human being between 18 and 34 years old consume CBD and among this, nearly half are women. None official French data to say how many French breastfeeding mothers consume CBD. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Study of the Passage of (CBD) Into Breast Milk and Its Biological Impact on Breast-fed Children

Really few data published to date on the passage of CBD into breast milk. The investigators known that 17.5 percent of the French human being between 18 and 34 years old consume CBD and among this, nearly half are women. None official French data to say how many French breastfeeding mothers consume CBD. CBD is a legal, psychoactive but not psychoaddictive substance. CBD's pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics make us fear that CBD could easily go through mother's milk. No published data available on possible effect in breast-fed child, not even on possible biological passage in breast-fed child. The aim of his study is to evaluate the passage of CBD in blood and milk at different moments of the breastfeeding (mothers) and its possible found in the infants'urine.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Assessing maternal and lactational plasma CBD uptake at different stages of breastfeeding in people with Breast Feeding, run by Centre Hospitalier Régional d'Orléans at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jan 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Marie-Philippe LEBOUCHARD-MAAKAROUN, Dr (+33238744181, marie-philippe.lebouchard-maakaroun@chu-orleans.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Theoretical dose of CBD received by the breastfed child over 24 hours (time frame: Day 2 postpartum). The study lists 8 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06589258, which also lists 7 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Jan 2026.
