According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. Acer failed to develop sufficient data for a New Drug Application (“NDA”) with the FDA for its drug, EDSIVO, for the treatment of vEDS. The Company’s NDA relied on the Ong Trial, a 2004 study considered inadequate by the FDA’s standards, and included a group size too small to support the EDSIVO application. Based on the insufficient data and reliance on an inappropriate study, the FDA rejected Acer’s NDA. Based on these facts, the Company’s public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about Acer, investors suffered damages.
