Class Action Lawsuit Against MacroGenics, Inc. (MGNX):

MacroGenics, Inc. shares plummeted on July 31 after the biotechnology company announced it was halting a mid-stage clinical trial for its experimental prostate cancer drug known as “vobra duo.”

The decision to discontinue the Phase 2 trial of vobra duo comes on the heels of an investor class action filed on July 26, alleging that the company misled investors about vobra duo’s safety profile.

The lawsuit contends that the truth about vobra duo emerged on May 10, 2024, after MacroGenics disclosed that five patients in the study had died. This revelation caused the company’s share price to plummet by $11.36, or about 77%, on the same day, prompting numerous analyst downgrades.

The termination of the vobra duo trial is MacroGenics’ latest setback. The company said it would continue to monitor patients who have received treatment but would no longer enroll new participants. MacroGenics plans to present additional data from the trial at the European Society for Medical Oncology conference in September.

MacroGenics shares are presently trading down more than 60% since disclosing adverse events related to vobra duo. Prominent shareholder litigation firm Hagens Berman has commenced an investigation into potential violations of the U.S. securities laws.

“We're scrutinizing MacroGenics’ public statements regarding the vobra duo trial to determine if investors were misled about the drug’s safety profile,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.

“We’re investigating whether MacroGenics may have misled investors about its Phase 2 TAMARACK interim safety data,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
