INVESTOR ALERT: Class Action Lawsuit Against Ampio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Announced by Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP


Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of a class (the "Class") of investors who purchased securities of Ampio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Ampio" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:AMPE) between January 13, 2014 and August 21, 2014, inclusive (the "Class Period") concerning the Company's and its officers' possible violations of federal securities laws. Investors have until July 7, 2015 to file a motion for appointment as a lead plaintiff.

The complaint alleges that 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's specifications; and, as a result of the Company's fraudulent conduct investors have been severely damaged. On August 21, 2014, the Company announced that, "due to temperaure deviations below product specifications during shipments to the Ampion™ STEP Study clinical sites, release of data will be delayed." On this news the Company's shares declined sharply, thereby damaging investors. Then 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.
