Hay, when you say the same market as V, you are referring to the indication that V is selling into currently. But after R-I, if successful, V will be selling into a different market. Capre would have to do outcome trials to be able to sell into that market.

haysaw..

Just a word of caution...There have been a lot of claims about the wonders of Krill oil, but little evidence..The EPA and DHA in Krill oil (KO) are the same molecules as those in fish oil..Neither the fish nor the Krill actually make the stuff they get it in their diet from same sources...

Krill oil is very susceptible to oxidation and the Krill need to be processed and refrigerated immediately on the ships down in the South Pole waters..Krill oil claims via Neptune were that KO was better absorbed in the GI tract...a claim FDA never bought...

Quote: " it (KO) is a purified and concentrated formulation, probably not much different than Vascepa"

Not likely...Krill oil is a FFA and Vascepa is esterified. The difference being it is much easier to purify and concentrate n-3s in the esterified form. So you are not going to see high concentrations of EPA in a KO product..and if you do, Amarin's patents will shut out Krill, because they cover esterified highly concentrate EPA...

So be careful...":>) JL
