According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges on behalf of purchasers of PolyMedix Inc (NASDAQ: PYMX) shares on the NASDAQ between March 7, 2011 and May 10, 2012, that PolyMedix Inc and certain of its executive officers violated the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934.
Between March 7, 2011 and May 10, 2012, PolyMedix Inc had two experimental compounds in clinical trials, PMX-30063 and PMX-60056, and one of these prospective drugs, PMX-60056, was a cardiovascular compound that was intended to reverse the activity of common blood clotting agents in order to avoid the risk of stroke.
PolyMedix Inc (NASDAQ: PYMX) reported that its annual Revenue rose from $1.07 million in 2008 to $2.46 million in 2011. However, its Net Loss rose from $10.99 million to $19.93 million.
The plaintiff alleges that beginning on March 7, 2011, PolyMedix Inc, along with its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Vice President of Cardiovascular Clinical Development, issued a series of allegedly materially false and misleading statements to investors about PMX-60056's commercial viability, safety, and market potential that caused shares of PolyMedix Inc to trade at artificially high prices.
Shares of PolyMedix Inc (NASDAQ: PYMX) rose from $0.57 per share on December 2, 2011 to $1.36 per share on February 17, 2012.
Then on May 10, 2012, PolyMedix Inc issued a press release disclosing to investors that PolyMedix Inc was halting patient enrollment in clinical trials for PMX-60056 due to observations of reductions in blood pressure.
PolyMedix Inc (NASDAQ: PYMX) shares dropped from over $1.30 to $0.31 per share on May 18, 2012.
On July 2, 2012, PolyMedix Inc (OTC: PYMX) shares closed at $0.30 per share.
