Zogenix is a pharmaceutical company that develops and commercializes therapies for the treatment of transformative central nervous system disorders in the United States. Its lead product candidate is ZX008, which is also known commercially by its trademarked name "FINTEPLA." FINTEPLA is a low-dose fenfluramine that is in Phase III clinical trials for the treatment of seizures associated with Dravet syndrome.
On February 6, 2019, Zogenix announced the submission of its New Drug Application ("NDA") to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") for FINTEPLA.
The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business, operational and compliance policies. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Zogenix's NDA for FINTEPLA contained inadequate non-clinical data and an incorrect version of a clinical dataset; (ii) consequently, Zogenix's NDA for FINTEPLA was unlikely to gain FDA approval; and (iii) as a result, the Company's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
On April 8, 2019, Zogenix announced that the Company had received a Refusal To File ("RTF") letter from the FDA stating that the Company's NDA for FINTEPLA was not sufficiently complete to permit a substantive review. Zogenix advised investors that "the FDA determined that the NDA . . . was not sufficiently completed to permit a substantive review . . . . [F]irst, certain non-clinical studies were not submitted to allow assessment of the chronic administration of fenfluramine; and, second, the application contained an incorrect version of a clinical dataset, which prevented the completion of the review process that is necessary to support the filing of the NDA."
On this news, Zogenix's stock price fell $11.89 per share, or nearly 23%, to close at $39.96 per share on April 9, 2019.
