and pre-clinical drug candidates for the treatment of a wide range of human diseases including central nervous system disorders, metabolic disorders, inflammation, and cancer. The company has built its product candidate portfolio through internal discovery and is advancing its product candidates through in-house research and development efforts. The quality and breadth of vTv's product candidate pipeline, platform technology, scientific team, and strategic collaborations have enabled it to become a fully integrated pharmaceutical company.

The company's commitment to drug discovery is reflected in its medical solutions and the many exciting potential new treatment options in its pipeline. The company's major R&D activities have focused on central nervous system disorders, metabolic disorders, inflammation and oncology.

vTv Therapeutics is advancing several proprietary drug candidates. The company's lead candidate, azeliragon (aka TTP488), is a novel, orally bioavailable small molecule compound that is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. In Phase 2 clinical trial in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease, azeliragon showed a statistically significant difference of more than 3 points in ADAS-cog at 18 months compared to placebo.

Azeliragon has been granted Fast Track Designation and agreement on its Phase 3 protocol has been reached with FDA via a Special Protocol Assessment (SPA). The Phase 3 study in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease was initiated in April 2015 with a clear path forward to registration with the aim to demonstrate disease modification.

vTv Therapeutics is also prosecuting the clinical development of TTP399, a novel functionally liver-selective Glucokinase Activator ("GKA") for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. In a Phase 2a study, TTP399 normalized patients' HbA1c without inducing hypoglycemia, after only six weeks of treatment. A six-month Phase 2 study is ongoing.
