Legal Actions and Key Deadlines for Applied Therapeutics Investors
In a significant legal development, Levi & Korsinsky, LLP has alerted investors of
Applied Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: APLT) regarding the filing of a class action lawsuit aimed at rectifying losses incurred due to suspected securities fraud. This lawsuit monitors events from
January 3, 2024, through
December 2, 2024, a period during which the company's stock faced severe declines linked to essential disclosures about its leading drug candidate.
Background on the Case
The core of the allegation centers around a communications failure regarding
govorestat, the company's flagship pharmaceutical product. On
November 27, 2024, Applied Therapeutics issued a public statement declaring that the FDA had issued a Complete Response Letter (CRL) concerning their New Drug Application (NDA) for this medication. This letter indicated that the FDA had assessed the application and found it inadequate due to existing
deficiencies in the clinical data presented.
The immediate financial repercussions of this announcement were striking. The company's stock, which stood at
$10.21 per share the day preceding the news, plummeted to
$8.57 by the next trading day, demonstrating an initial decline of roughly
16%. However, the decline escalated dramatically following further disclosures. By
December 2, 2024, after the company admitted to receiving a
“warning letter” from the FDA concerning clinical trial issues, shares saw an astonishing drop to
$1.75, representing over
80% of its initial value over a short period.
The Implications for Investors
Investors suffering losses during this timeframe are encouraged to consider their options regarding the class action lawsuit. The court will accept requests for lead plaintiff appointments until
February 18, 2025. All APLT investors from the affected period may share in financial recoveries without incurring any out-of-pocket costs related to their participation. This aspect is particularly appealing as it offers a risk-free opportunity to seek restitution.
