According to the complaint, on November 27, 2024, the Company disclosed that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) issued a Complete Response Letter (“CRL”) for its new drug application for govorestat, AT-007-1002, for treatment of classic galactosemia (the “NDA”).  The Company’s press release states that the “CRL indicate[d] that the FDA completed its review of the application and determined that it is unable to approve the NDA in its current form, citing deficiencies in the clinical application.”

Following this news, on November 29, 2024, Applied Therapeutics stock fell $6.54 per share, over 76%, to close at $2.03 per share on heavy trading volume.

Then, on December 2, 2024 after the markets closed, the Company disclosed in a Form 8-K filing that following issuance of the CRL, the Company received a “warning letter” limited to the AT-007-1002 study and that the “warning letter” identified issues relating to “electronic data capture” and a “dosing error in the dose-escalation phase of the study resulting in slightly lower levels than targeted in a limited number of patients, which was remedied prior to achieving maintenance dosing.”  According to the complaint, Applied Therapeutics’ stock price declined from a closing market price of $1.75 per share on December 2, 2024 to close at $1.29 per share on December 5, 2024.
