- Change from baseline to Week 4 in the weekly average of the daily pain score [ Time Frame: Week 4 ]Efficacy of ETX 018810 for the treatment of lumbosacral radicular pain will be assessed from change from baseline to Week 4 in the weekly average of the daily pain score on the 11 point Pain Intensity Numerical Rating Scale (PI NRS) from 0 being the least (No Pain) to 10 being the most (Worst Possible Pain).
