vTv Therapeutics (VTVT) announced that the FDA has lifted the clinical hold on its cadisegliatin program, including the CATT1 Phase 3 trial for type 1 diabetes (T1D). The company plans to amend the protocol to reduce the trial duration from 12 to 6 months, expediting the path to larger pivotal studies needed for NDA submission.
Cadisegliatin, an oral liver-selective glucokinase activator, aims to be the first oral adjunctive therapy to insulin for T1D. The drug has shown good tolerability in over 500 subjects with up to six months of treatment. The primary endpoint of measuring level 2 and 3 hypoglycemia rates at 6 months remains unchanged.
The clinical hold, initially placed on July 26, 2024, was due to an unresolved chromatographic signal in a human ADME study. The hold was lifted on March 14, 2025, after vTv demonstrated the signal was an experimental artifact. No patients had been dosed in the CATT1 trial during the hold period, and previous studies showed no concerning safety issues.
