Ampio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE American: AMPE) is a pre-revenue stage biotechnology company based in Greenwood Village, Colorado. The company is focused on developing innovative treatments for osteoarthritis through its OA-201 program. This program aims to develop a unique and proprietary small molecule formulation designed to alleviate pain and protect cartilage in patients suffering from osteoarthritis of the knee (OAK) and potentially other joints.
Recently, Ampio faced significant developments, including a 20-to-1 reverse stock split approved by its Board of Directors to address its stock price and meet NYSE American's listing requirements. The reverse stock split took effect in September 2023. Despite these efforts, Ampio decided to voluntarily delist its common stock from NYSE American and deregister its shares to reduce regulatory costs and conserve cash for future operations.
In the clinical field, Ampio has partnered with Ascendia Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to support the development of OA-201. Ascendia will provide comprehensive services ranging from formulation to cGMP manufacturing. Despite promising initial results, recent non-clinical studies failed to demonstrate significant pain reduction benefits, leading to the termination of the OA-201 program in February 2024.
Ampio has also been involved in legal proceedings, including securities fraud class actions and derivative actions, all of which reached settlements in early 2024. The company anticipates that the settlements will be covered by its D&O insurance policy.
The company recently announced that it will delist its common stock and terminate its reporting obligations under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, effective April 2024. This decision aims to preserve cash and facilitate an orderly wind down of operations.
