SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC Announces Investigation of Ariad Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (ARIA)
NEW YORK, Oct. 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Attorney Advertising -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC is investigating potential claims on behalf of purchasers of the securities of Ariad Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Ariad" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: ARIA). Such investors are advised to contact Peretz Bronstein or his investor relations analyst Yael Hurwitz at [email protected] or 212-697-6484.
The investigation concerns whether Ariad and certain of its officers and/or directors have violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
On October 6, 2016, The Street published a report called "How Ariad Pharma Used a Safety Problem to Jack Up a Cancer Drug's Price," in which it described the conditions the Company used to up its price for the leukemia drug Iclusig. The article continued to say that after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration temporarily pulled Iclusig from the market, it did allow Iclusig to go back on the market with a reduced recommended dose and more restricted approved use. Ariad then "embarked on a series of massive price increases" for its now-niche drug, "instead of reducing its price tag to reflect less benefit overall." Following this news, Ariad stock dropped $0.52 per share, or 3.75%, to close at $13.35 on October 6, 2016.
