Over the last years a rising medical need for treatment of chronic pain was identified. Based on previous findings indicating the pain modulating effects of cannabinoids in chronic pain disorders, this clinical trial investigates the long term efficacy and tolerability of the THC-focused nano endocannabinoid system modulator AP707 in patients with chronic pain disorders due to traumatic or post-operative peripheral neuropathy. Patients receive AP707 or placebo over the course of 14 weeks as an add-on to the standard of care. Changes in pain intensity, quality of life and sleep and others measures are monitored through different scales to assess the efficacy of AP707 in patients with chronic pain due to traumatic or post-operative peripheral neuropathy.

5. Patients with optimized sCPT on study entry as defined in section 3.1.1 and section 3.1.3 of the study protocol
6. Willingness of study patients of both sexes to use reliable contraception during study participation and for three months after taking the last study medication
7. Good command of German language, in order to understand questionnaires in German
8. Current moderate to severe pain with pain intensity > 5 on Numeric Rating Scale (NRS, 0 - 10) and thus an existing need for further pain therapy
9. Completed QUISS (Quantification Inventory for Somatoform Syndromes) questionnaire with 45 or less score points

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Medical history of hypersensitivity or intolerance to the investigational product or its ingredients or to ingredients of similar chemical structure

4. Pregnant or nursing women (as excluded by pregnancy testing at visit 1).
5. Other medical conditions that do not allow the trial subject to appraise the nature, scope, and potential consequences of the clinical trial
6. Indications that the trial subject is unlikely to comply with the study protocol (e.g., unwillingness to cooperate)
7. Known use of medicinal cannabis products within the last 8 weeks
