For Some Mechanisms, the US Regulatory Risk May be Too High 60 • Canada: – 2005 approval for neuropathic pain. – 2007 as adjunct analgesic in patients with advanced cancer who experience moderate to severe pain during the highest tolerated dose of strong opioid therapy for persistent background pain. • UK: available as prescription on a named patient basis; available on a compassionate access basis in the Catalonian region of Spain. • US: investigational drug (Phase II/III) being developed in partnership with Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co. as an adjunctive analgesic treatment for patients with advanced cancer whose persistent pain has not been adequately relieved by optimized treatment with strong opioids. The FDA has not approved Sativex and the product is not available in the US other than for use in FDA approved clinical trials.

For Some Mechanisms, the US Regulatory Risk May be Too High 61 The Controlled Substances Act of 1970, which created the five schedule classification system for drugs, assigned marijuana a Schedule I designation. This classification puts marijuana alongside heroin and hallucinogens as a dangerous and addictive drug with no accepted medical use. Note: On July 13, 1986, the DEA issued a Final Rule and Statement of Policy authorizing the "Rescheduling of Synthetic Dronabinol (Synthetic/Extract THC) in Sesame Oil and Encapsulated in Soft Gelatin Capsules From Schedule I to Schedule II"(DEA 51 FR 17476-78). This permitted medical use of Marinol (Solvay), albeit with the severe restrictions associated with Schedule II status. Marinol is now Schedule III. www.usdoj.gov/dea/pubs/csa.html © Defined Health, 2009 Pain Insight Briefing
