INVESTOR ALERT: Investigation of Ampio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Announced by The Law Offices of Howard G. Smith


Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that it is investigating potential claims on behalf of investors Ampio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Ampio" or the "Company") (AMEX:AMPE) concerning the Company's and its officers' possible violations of federal securities laws.

The investigation focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by failing to disclose that (1) the clinical research organization conducting the STEP Study lacked autonomy; and (2) the trial drug supply for the STEP Study was shipped to clinical sites at lower temperatures than were permitted by the drug' specifications. As a result of the Company's fraudulent conduct investors have been severely damaged. On April 20, 2015, Ampio announced that, "the multiple injection STRIDE study AP008 did not reach its primary endpoint against the saline control test." On this news, shares of Ampio fell $5.18 per share, to close at $2.69, or more than 65.8%, on April 24, 2015.
