SEC Lawsuit Against BioAge Labs, Inc. by Schall Law Firm
The Schall Law Firm, a recognized leader in shareholder rights litigation, has initiated a class action lawsuit against BioAge Labs, Inc., or BioAge, due to perceived violations of federal securities laws. This legal action comes in response to significant developments following the company’s recent IPO on September 26, 2024, when investors bought securities based on potentially misleading statements issued by BioAge.
Background on the Case
An important milestone in this case is a public announcement made by BioAge on December 6, 2024, where the company disclosed the discontinuation of its ongoing STRIDES Phase 2 trial for its leading candidate, azelaprag. The reason cited for this decision was safety concerns regarding trial participants. This revelation starkly contrasts the assurances and optimistic claims made during the IPO regarding azelaprag's efficacy in treating obesity with incretin drugs.
The fallout from this announcement was immediate. Investors who had placed faith in BioAge’s marketing and public statements were left in a situation where they potentially faced significant financial losses. Lawyers at Schall Law Firm allege that the company's misrepresentations were not only irresponsible but also damaging to shareholders who relied on BioAge's declarations.
How Investors Can Respond
BioAge shareholders who believe they may have suffered financial losses due to these misleading statements are encouraged to act promptly. The Schall Law Firm invites affected investors to contact them before March 10, 2025, to discuss their options. Participation in the class action lawsuit allows individuals to join forces in seeking compensation for their losses sustained as a result of these alleged securities violations.

As BioAge navigates this legal challenge, its future, and that of its investors, remains uncertain.
Failing to engage with this situation could leave many investors in a vulnerable position as the trial unfolds. The Schall Law Firm aims to provide representation to investors willing to stand against potential injustices perpetrated in the securities market.
