Perna canaliculus Lipid Complex PCSO-524™ Demonstrated Pain Relief for Osteoarthritis Patients Benchmarked against Fish Oil, a Randomized Trial, without Placebo Control

Authors: Jacek Szechiński, Marek Zawadzki

Aim: To compare, from baseline, pain relief, changes in the indicators of quality of life and safety for osteoarthritis patients taking a patented CO2 stabilised oil from the NZ Greenshell Mussel Perna canaliculus (PCSO-524™) compared with patients taking fish oil (containing an industry standard EPA 18% and DHA 12% blend).

Measurement of pain relief resulting from the administration of lipid complex PCSO-524™ as compared to fish oil for treating patients who suffer from osteoarthritis of knee and/or hip joints Perna canaliculus

Osteoarthritis (OA) typically generates pain, reduced mobility and reduced quality of life. Most conventional treatments for osteoarthritis, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and simple analgesics, have side effects. PCSO-524™, a non polar lipid extract from the New Zealand Green Lipped Mussel, is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and has been shown to reduce inflammation in both animal studies and patient trials.
