SimpliciT-1 Study of TTP399 in patients with type 1 diabetes fully-enrolled
Elevage Study of azeliragon in patients with mild Alzheimer’s disease with type 2 diabetes actively enrolling
HIGH POINT, N.C., Oct. 30, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- vTv Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq:VTVT) today reported financial results for the third quarter that ended September 30, 2019, and provided an update on recent achievements, events, and its ongoing clinical trials in type 1 diabetes and Alzheimer’s disease.
“We hosted an informative type 1 diabetes key opinion leader event with JDRF this quarter where two prominent KOLs, Drs. John Buse and Kevan Herold, shared important information including that, despite the increasingly widespread use of improved technologies like continuous glucose monitoring, nearly 80% of individuals with type 1 diabetes fail to achieve the American Diabetes Association’s target goals for HbA1c,” said Steve Holcombe, chief executive officer, vTv Therapeutics. “Based on the data we’ve seen to date in our trial of TTP399 in patients with type 1 diabetes, we believe our glucokinase activator could eventually provide a meaningful treatment option to patients with type 1 diabetes that would lower A1c, improve glycemic control and reduce daily insulin use, without increasing hypoglycemic events.”
“We are also pleased that we are continuing to make progress with the Elevage Study of azeliragon in patients with mild Alzheimer’s disease with type 2 diabetes that is expected to read-out in late 2020 or early 2021.”

Forward-Looking Statements
This release contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would” and, in each case, their negative or other various or comparable terminology. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this release, including statements regarding the timing of our clinical trials, our strategy, future operations, future financial position, future revenue, projected costs, prospects, plans, objectives of management and expected market growth are forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our results to vary from expectations include those described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and our other filings with the SEC. These forward-looking statements reflect our views with respect to future events as of the date of this release and are based on assumptions and subject to risks and uncertainties. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this release and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or review publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise after the date of this release. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our views to change. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, merger, dispositions, joint ventures or investments we may undertake. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”), we use non-GAAP adjusted net loss per fully exchanged share, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss per fully exchanged share adjusts the net loss attributable to vTv common shareholders for the impact of adjustments related to outstanding warrants, share-based compensation expense and the portion of net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest. It also assumes the exchange of all the Class B common stock of vTv Therapeutics Inc. and an equal number of non-voting common units of vTv Therapeutics LLC (“vTv Units”) for shares of Class A common stock of vTv Therapeutics Inc. We believe that this measure provides useful information to investors as it eliminates the variability of non-controlling interest resulting from the exchanges of Class B common stock and vTv Units into Class A common stock and other items of a non-cash nature. This measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.
The following is a reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted net loss per fully exchanged share, basic and diluted to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, net loss per share of vTv Therapeutics Inc. Class A common stock, basic and diluted and the computation of the components of this non-GAAP measure:
