Efficacy and Safety of VER-01 in the Treatment of Participants With Chronic Painful Lumbosacral Radiculopathy

Multicenter, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Phase III Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of the Full-spectrum Cannabis Extract VER-01 in Participants With Chronic Painful Lumbosacral Radiculopathy

The aim of the trial is to prove the efficacy and safety of VER-01 compared to placebo in patients with chronic painful lumbosacral radiculopathy (PLSR) for whom drug treatment is indicated and previous optimized treatments with non-opioid analgesics have not led to sufficient pain relief or were unsuitable due to contraindications or intolerance.
