I was the PM; CA was PF. Approaching the VOR at FL340; we were given a descent to FL320.  While established on our descent we received an amber EICAS message 'PITCH TRIM FAIL'.  CA instructed me to run the associated QRH procedure.  I ran the QRH procedure which instructed me to reset the Pitch Trim System (Pitch Trim System 1 and 2 Cutout Buttons- PUSH IN; then OUT).  In performing this; we received an amber EICAS message 'AP FAIL'.  In addition; the PITCH TRIM FAIL message illuminated again.  I followed the QRH procedure which further instructed to '...LAND AT NEAREST SUITABLE AIRPORT'.CA delegated this responsibility to me since he was now hand-flying the aircraft.  We also determined that due to our close proximity we would continue to our destination.  I relayed to ATC that we had 1.5 hrs of fuel remaining (~5000 lbs). I requested we get direct to FAF for the ILS; and to have emergency equipment standing by upon our arrival.  ATC complied and gave us a descent to 5000' at pilot's discretion.  I continued with the QRH checklist which prompted me to ESTABLISH AND COMMUNICATE A PLAN.After informing the CA that I would be off comms; I told the FA's briefly that we want them to ready the cabin for arrival and to expect a call from the CA.  After; I sent Dispatch an ACARS message stating; 'PITCH TRIM FAIL/AP FAIL_VECTORS TO FINAL'.  Upon completing the PITCH TRIM FAIL QRH procedure and prior to commencing with the PITCH/ROLL Malfunction Descent Checklist; the CA positively transferred flight controls to me so that he could make the appropriate calls to the cabin and FA's. After positively exchanging the flight controls back to the CA; I continued with the PITCH/ROLL Malfunction Descent Checklist.Our gross landing weight was ~66;000lbs and the weather conditions were VMC.  I briefed the full ILS 32L to the CA.  While in the course of completing the checklist; ATC allowed for small turns to a southerly heading to provide for more time to configure the aircraft.  We had the aircraft fully configured about 8 NM from the runway.  At FAF the CA called for; and I ran; the PITCH/ROLL Malfunction Landing Checklist.  At this point; the CA requested that our V-APP speed be at 150KIAS; for increased aircraft control (V-REF was calculated at 133 KIAS).Upon touchdown; we determined that nose wheel steering capabilities were unaffected; turned off the runway.  Stopped here; we received an amber 'FLT CTRL NO DISPATCH' which was determined to be as a result of the PITCH TRIM FAIL and resulted in no QRH actions necessary to accomplish.  At this point ARFF vehicles made a 360-degree inspection of the aircraft.  During the inspection; we queried the FA's as to the status of the cabin; to which they reported no one injured.  Upon finding no visual faults by ARFF; we proceeded to taxi to the gate without further incident.
