CLASS PERIOD: February 1,
2022 to January 1, 2024
ALLEGATIONS: The complaint alleges that on
December 2, 2022, AVXL announced
positive topline results from its Phase 2b/3 ANAVEX®2-73-AD-004 clinical trial of oral
ANAVEX®2-73 (blarcamesine) for the treatment of mild cognitive
impairment (MCI) due to Alzheimer's disease (AD) and mild AD
(collectively known as early AD). ANAVEX®2-73 met the primary
endpoints ADAS-Cog1 and ADCS-ADL2 and key secondary endpoint
CDR-SB3 with statistically significant results. An analyst
questioned the Company's claim noting "there are several key
factors that point us to believe the data is provocative, but not
yet compelling, given the choice of statistical analyses and other
trial design/conduct 'complexifiers'." Additionally, a biotech
journalist commented on AVXL's findings stating "[w]hat sets Anavex
apart from all the other biotechs on my radar screen is its habit
of shifting the goalposts on clinical trials…Anavex announced
"positive" outcomes from studies of its drug called blarcamesine —
except the results were derived from efficacy endpoints that were
not part of the original study designs." Following this news,
AVXL's stock price fell by $2.47 per
share, or approximately 20% to close at $9.58. Further on January
3, 2024, AVXL announced that results from its Phase 2/3
EXCELLENCE clinical trial for its candidate ANAVEX®2-73 in
pediatric patients with Rett syndrome failed to show statistical
significance towards its primary endpoints. Biotech analysts
commented that "the negative study outcome was never in
doubt…Anavex is a serial dissembler of clinical trial results."
Following this news, AVXL's stock price fell by $3.26 per share, or approximately 35%.
DEADLINE: May 13, 2024
