Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP Files Class Action Against Applied Therapeutics
A significant development has emerged for investors in the biotechnology sector as Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP announced the initiation of a class action lawsuit against Applied Therapeutics, Inc. This legal action is a response to alleged securities fraud that impacted investors who purchased Applied Therapeutics shares between January 3, 2024, and December 2, 2024. The lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, marking a critical juncture for affected parties seeking restitution.
Allegations Against Applied Therapeutics
The lawsuit alleges that throughout the specified Class Period, executives at Applied Therapeutics made a series of misleading statements and failed to disclose vital information regarding the company’s clinical trials. Specifically, the complaint claims that there were serious deviations from the required trial protocols for their drug candidate, govorestat. This non-compliance raised red flags, suggesting that the data collected might not be accepted by the FDA during the submission for a New Drug Application (NDA). Such risks not only jeopardize the integrity of the drug development process but also significantly affect investor confidence and market valuation.
