What Happened?
On May 27, 2025, Rocket disclosed that the FDA had placed a clinical hold on the Phase 2 pivotal trial of its Danon disease treatment, RP-A501, after at least one patient died following a substantive amendment to the protocol that the Company had not disclosed until after the Serious Adverse Event (“SAE”) occurred.
On this news, Rocket’s stock price fell $3.94, or 62.8%, to close at $2.33 per share on May 27, 2025, thereby injuring investors.
What Is The Lawsuit About?
The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (1) Rocket knew SAEs, including death of participants enrolled in the study, were a risk; (2) Rocket amended the trial’s protocol to introduce a novel immunomodulatory agent to the pretreatment regimen without providing this critical update to shareholders; and (3) as a result, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
