The Complaint states that, throughout the Class Period, Intra-Cellular made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose: that findings related to toxicity in animals treated with lumateperone (ITI-007) were observed; that these findings posed an additional safety concern regarding lumateperone; and that as a result of the above, the Company’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
On August 4, 2016, Intra-Cellular’s CEO Sharon Mates touted the “efficacy and safety of ITI-007 for the treatment of schizophrenia.” On May 1, 2017, Intra-Cellular disclosed that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration requested information from the Company in order to verify whether or not there are safety risks associated with long term exposure of ITI-007 to patients. When this information was released, Intra-Cellular’s stock price decreased materially, which harmed investors according to the Complaint.
Lundin Law PC was established by Brian Lundin, a securities litigator based in Los Angeles dedicated to upholding shareholders’ rights.
This press release may be considered Attorney Advertising in some jurisdictions under the applicable law and ethical rules.
