BioAge Labs Faces Securities Fraud Lawsuit Led by Schall Law Firm Following Failed Drug Trial Disclosure

Schall Law Firm Initiates Class Action Against BioAge Labs, Inc.

On January 10, 2025, the Schall Law Firm announced the filing of a class action lawsuit against BioAge Labs, Inc. The firm specializes in shareholder rights litigation and seeks to address concerns regarding violations of federal securities laws related to BioAge’s initial public offering (IPO).

The lawsuit arises after BioAge's announcement on December 6, 2024, regarding the discontinuation of its STRIDES Phase 2 trial for its candidate azelaprag, a drug developed for obesity therapy. The company cited safety issues for halting the trial, which starkly contrasted its prior claims during the IPO that azelaprag presented considerable potential benefits in treating obesity.

Investors who purchased BioAge securities either during or traceable to this IPO are encouraged to reach out to the Schall Law Firm before March 10, 2025. Legal representatives from the firm emphasize that affected shareholders may have suffered significant losses due to the company's misleading statements.

The lawsuit alleges that BioAge’s public communications were misleading throughout the class period, failing to disclose the risks associated with azelaprag and misleading the market about the drug’s safety and efficacy. Following the disclosure regarding the trial's discontinuation, investors reacted sharply, resulting in a notable decline in stock prices and investor confidence.

Brian Schall, representing the law firm, has highlighted that the class has not yet been certified. Until such a process occurs, individuals who choose to remain passive will not have legal representation in this matter.

This court action is particularly critical as it provides a platform for affected investors to discuss their rights and explore avenues for recovering their losses. Investors wishing to engage in the class action can connect directly with the Schall Law Firm through their office located in Los Angeles or via their website.

In the budding landscape of biotech investments, this case against BioAge Labs illustrates the vital importance of transparent corporate communication and shareholder protection against potentially devastating financial outcomes due to misleading information.
