- Treatment with TTP399 resulted in significant improvements in HbA1c with reduction in insulin, without increasing risk of hypoglycemia or diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) -

HIGH POINT, N.C., June 13, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- vTv Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq: VTVT) today made two presentations at the American Diabetes Association’s 80th Scientific Sessions. The clinical data presented from the positive Phase 2 Simplici-T1 Study confirms the potential for TTP399 to provide a benefit beyond standalone insulin treatment for patients living with type 1 diabetes.

“These results from the Simplici-T1 Trial are a major step towards the future of care in type 1 diabetes.  They demonstrate that TTP399, a once-a-day pill, reduces HbA1c and improves time in range, without increasing hypoglycemia or any signal for adverse events including diabetic ketoacidosis,” said John Buse, MD, Director of the North Carolina Translational and Clinical Sciences Institute and of the Diabetes Center at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine. “Despite advances in insulin and type 1 diabetes technologies, affected patients continue to have difficulty achieving optimal glucose control. A safe and effective oral adjunctive therapy would be an important tool for patients and treating endocrinologists to improve both the daily burden of T1D and its long-term outcomes.”
