According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges on behalf of all persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired securities of AVEO Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ: AVEO) between January 3, 2012 and May 1, 2013, that AVEO Pharmaceuticals Inc and certain of its officers and directors violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
More specifically, the plaintiff alleges that defendants allegedly conditioned investors to believe that AVEO Pharmaceuticals Inc's drug Tivopath or tivozanib, would receive approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ) through a host of materially allegedly false and misleading statements regarding its Phase III ( TIVO-1 ) trial design and results.
Then on May 2, 2013, AVEO Pharmaceuticals Inc announced that a Food and Drug Administration panel recommended its drug Tivopath not be approved as a treatment for advanced kidney cancer. AVEO Pharmaceuticals Inc and Astellas Pharma Inc said that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee voted that the application for investigational agent tivozanib did not demonstrate a favorable benefit-to-risk evaluation for the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in an adequate and well-controlled trial (13 to 1, 0 abstentions).
Shares of AVEO Pharmaceuticals Inc dropped from $5.60 per share on May 1, 2013, to $2.54 per share on May 2, 2013.
On May 9, 2013, AVEO Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ: AVEO) shares closed at $2.59 per share, which is significantly below its current 52 week High of $14.08 per share.
