Brief Summary  

The proposed study is to assess the Efficacy and safety of novel formulation of curcumin I, curcumin II and III in Reducing Symptoms of Knee Osteoarthritis by decreasing joint pain and improvement in joint function.

Several osteoarthritis trials have been conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of curcumin in alleviating the symptoms of pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis and is demonstrated to be both safe and effective for long-term use.

A total of 60 ambulatory male and female subjects with 40-75 years of age with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of approximately 18 to 30 kg/m2,having Unilateral or bilateral OA of the knee for greater than 3 months (ACR criteria)will be screened and randomly assigned into any of the three treatment arms in 1:1:1 ratio (CurQlife 500 mg, CurQlife P 500 mg and Placebo).

All subjects randomized to Active group will be advised to take one capsule twice daily There will be a total of five visits in the study [Screening Visit/Randomization visit (Day -7 to Day 0) Visit 1 and Study Periods [Day 7, Day 15, Day 30,and Final visit [Day 60].

The study assessment is through Change in WOMAC,VAS,LFI and Knee flexion  from baseline to day 60.
