Sponsor's own description
The main goal of this trial is to study the efficacy of Namisol® after a single dose of Δ9-THC in the treatment of pain resulting from chronic pancreatitis. Objective measures of pain processing, e.g. encephalography (EEG) and quantitative sensory testing (QST), are included to provide insight in underlying nociceptive processing.
