Brief summary
Radicle Relief RAL: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study assessing the impact of health and wellness products on pain relief and related health outcomes.
Detailed description
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study conducted with adult participants, residing in the United States. Eligible participants will (1) have the opportunity for meaningful improvement (at least 30%) in their primary health outcome, and (2) express acceptance in taking a product and not knowing its formulation until the end of the study. Participants that report a known cardiac dysfunction, liver or kidney disease may be excluded. Participants that report a known contraindication or with well-established, significant safety concerns due to illness will be excluded. Heavy drinkers and those who report they are pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or breastfeeding will be excluded. Participants that report taking medications with a known contraindication or with well-established, significant safety concerns will be excluded. Self-reported data are collected electronically from eligible participants for 8 weeks. Participant reports of health indicators will be collected at enrollment and throughout the active period of study product usage. All study assessments will be electronic; there are no in-person visits or assessments for this real-world evidence study.
Interventions
Participants will use their Pain Relief Supplement Product Placebo Control as directed for a period of 8 weeks
Participants will use their Pain Relief Supplement Active Product 1 as directed for a period of 8 weeks

Study design
Masking description
The investigator is blinded to the participants' assigned study products. Participants are blinded to the study product they received.
Intervention model description
Participants will be stratified based on their assigned sex at birth and health outcome score during enrollment, then randomized to one of the study arms. Each participant will have an equal chance of being assigned to any study arm.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in Pain Interference | 9 weeks | Change in Pain Interference: Difference in rates of change over time in pain interference score as assessed by PROMIS Pain Interference 6A (scale 6-30; with higher scores corresponding to more severe pain interference) |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in Pain Intensity | 9 weeks | Change in Pain Intensity: Difference in rates of change over time in pain intensity score as assessed by PROMIS Pain Intensity 3A (scale 3-15; with higher scores corresponding to more severe pain intensity) |
| Change in sleep | 9 weeks | Change in sleep: Difference in rates of change over time in sleep score as assessed by PROMIS Sleep Disturbance 8A (scale 8-40; where higher scores correspond to higher levels of sleep disturbance) |
| Change in Physical Function | 9 weeks | Change in physical function: Difference in rates of change over time in physical function score as assessed by Patient Reported Outcome Measurement System (PROMIS) Physical Function 8C (scale 8-40; where higher scores correspond to better physical function) |
