About the Lawsuit
NewLink and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws.
On May 9, 2016, NewLink announced that its product candidate algenpantucel-L, a pancreatic cancer treatment, failed to achieve the primary endpoint in its Phase 3 study, conducted in patients with resected pancreatic cancer. NewLink further disclosed that patients treated with algenpantucel-L lived for a median of 27.3 months compared to median survival of 30.4 months for patients treated with standard therapy, suggesting that patients were actually harmed by NewLink's algenpantucel-L.
On this news, the price of NewLink's stock plummeted by over 30%.
