Pomerantz Law Firm Launches Investigation into PTC Therapeutics for Investor Claims
Pomerantz Law Firm Investigates Potential Fraud at PTC Therapeutics
In the realm of corporate and securities litigation, the Pomerantz Law Firm has initiated an investigation involving investors of PTC Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: PTCT). With a rich history in litigating securities class actions, the firm is exploring whether PTC and specific executives or board members have engaged in any unlawful business practices or securities fraud that could have impacted stock prices and investor trust.
On May 5, 2025, PTC published a press release detailing the outcomes of its Phase 2 PIVOT-HD clinical trial, which examined the efficacy of PTC518 (votoplam) in treating Stage 2 and Stage 3 Huntington's disease patients. The firm disclosed that the study reached its primary endpoint—showing a significant reduction in Huntingtin (HTT) protein levels after 12 weeks. Despite these positive findings, market analysts flagged that the company may need to conduct a Phase 3 study to further validate the treatment's ability to slow the progression of Huntington's disease.
Following the release of these results, PTC's stock experienced a notable decline, losing $9.30 per share, equivalent to an 18.62% drop, settling at $40.65 by day's end. This reaction in the stock market highlights the sensitive nature of healthcare stocks surrounding clinical trial results, particularly in the biotechnology sector where investor sentiment can quickly fluctuate based on perceived risks and breakthroughs.

With over eight decades of successful litigation in this field, the firm has recovered substantial damages for investors, demonstrating a strong track record in securing justice for those impacted by breaches of fiduciary duty and securities fraud.
