NHS Scotland is funding a six-figure clinical trial to explore the effects of CBD on pelvic pain related to endometriosis.\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\r\n

The <\/span>Chief Scientist Office, part of the Scottish Government Health Directorate responsible for funding research in NHS Scotland, will provide \u00a3300,000 for the trial, <\/span>Ananda Developments, announced in a press release<\/a> on Tuesday 15 August.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Endometriosis, a condition where cells similar to the womb-lining are found elsewhere in the body, affects around 190 million women worldwide and often leads to debilitating pelvic pain among other symptoms.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The placebo-controlled randomised control trial (RCT), <\/span>led by Dr Lucy H R Whitaker, a clinical lecturer in Obstetrics and Gynaecology at The University of Edinburgh, <\/span>will look at the effects of Ananda\u2019s oral CBD tincture (MRX1) in 100 women with pelvic pain related to endometriosis.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

MRX1 is a broad-spectrum oral tincture containing CBD isolate and additional terpenes.The company is said to have developed a proprietary method for formulating cannabis medicines which are essentially THC-free but contain other components of cannabis which contribute to the<\/span> \u2018entourage effect\u2019.\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/p>\r\n

Over a 12 week period p<\/span>articipants, recruited from two Scottish hospitals, will be given either the patent pending MRX1 or matching placebo and then asked to complete questionnaires on their symptoms.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Researchers hope the findings will demonstrate the feasibility of a UK-wide study <\/span>to determine whether a cannabinoid can reduce endometriosis-associated pain. <\/span>If successful, it is possible this would provide a pathway for the product to be <\/span>funded through the NHS<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Ananda announced<\/a> its intention to conduct two landmark trials on MRX1 in complex pain conditions in March.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

A separate RCT investigating its potential on MRX1 in <\/span>chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) was due to get underway at the University of Edinburgh earlier this year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Ananda\u2019s CEO, Melissa Sturgess, commented: “Our objective is to have MRX1 included by the NHS as an efficacious and cost-effective treatment for pain associated with endometriosis. Getting NHS funding for this trial using MRX1 is a clear statement of the importance of endometriosis as a public health issue and we believe clearly demonstrates the interest in the use cannabidiol as a potential treatment for endometriosis and other complex chronic inflammatory pain conditions by the UK’s public health bodies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cThe chronic, complex inflammatory pain market was recently <\/span>estimated<\/span><\/a> to be worth at least \u00a35 billion per annum in the UK alone.”<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The trial is expected to begin recruiting participants later this year.<\/p>\r\n
