On July 1, 2021, Citius issued a press release entitled "Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Announces Positive Recommendation by Independent Data Monitoring Committee to Continue the Mino-Lok Phase 3 Trial as Planned." Although the press release framed its contents in positive terms, disclosing, among other things, that "following a unblinded data review of safety and efficacy, the independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) for the Mino-Lok® Phase 3 Pivotal Superiority Trial has recommended proceeding with the trial as planned" and "did not identify any safety concerns and no modifications were recommended to the protocol-defined sample size or power to achieve the primary endpoint", analysts and industry observers noted that the trial's third interim analysis scheduled for June 29, 2021 did not find evidence of superiority over standard care, contrary to investor expectations.
On this news, Citius's stock price fell $0.88 per share, or 25.29%, to close at $2.60 per share on July 1, 2021.
