Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a new opioid molecule, NKTR-181, is effective for the relief of moderate to severe chronic low back pain as compared to a placebo.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is an enriched enrollment, randomized withdrawal study with an open label, dose-titration period followed by a randomized, double-blind, placebo-control treatment of twelve weeks. During the double-blind treatment period, this study will evaluate the analgesic effect of NKTR-181 versus placebo in patients with moderate to severe chronic low back pain.
