Summary

Randomized, open-label, parallel-group phase III trial to prove an additional benefit of the full-spectrum cannabis extract VER-01 over opioids in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain 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.
