About Tyme

Tyme is a pharmaceutical company focused on discovering and developing highly targeted cancer therapeutics for a broad range of oncology indications. Tyme is the originator of what it believes to be a novel, proprietary treatment regimen consisting of a rationally-designed combination of therapeutic agents aimed at exploiting the aberrant metabolic characteristics of cancer cells as well as activating the endogenous immune response against tumors. Tyme's approach is hypothesized to permit selective elimination of cancer cells, while simultaneously improving patients' well-being, particularly with respect to pain severity and functional independence.

Tyme is currently developing for use in humans SM-88, our proprietary compound, which we believe to be a first-in-class drug that harnesses the body’s own immune defenses to fight tumor cells. SM-88 is a novel combination drug that synergistically target the unique metabolic features of cancer cells, thus providing a selective method of altering the susceptibility of cancer cells to oxidative stress. Tyme has completed a proof-of-concept clinical study for SM-88 in late-stage cancer patients with relapsed or highly refractory disease and is working towards submitting an Investigational New Drug (IND) application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, with the goal of beginning a randomized clinical trial in multiple U.S. centers in the near future. We anticipate an IND submission to the FDA by the second quarter with trials commencing in third quarter.

In connection with the Merger and the transactions described above, Tyme Technologies filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with the US Securities and Exchange Commission on March 11, 2015. Readers are urged to review this entire Form 8-K for a complete description of the Merger, private offering and other related transactions.
