The lawsuit is focused on the propriety of Replimune’s statements concerning data submitted to the FDA in support of its Biologics License Application (BLA).
Throughout the Class Period, Replimune had painted an optimistic picture for RP1, citing its Breakthrough Therapy designation by the FDA, its Accelerated Approval pathway, and assurances that "data from the IGNYTE study shows that roughly one-third of patients are able to achieve durable response in a high unmet need setting with few options." These in turn fueled hopes that RP1 could offer a crucial new treatment for a particularly aggressive form of skin cancer.
The complaint alleges that Replimune made false and misleading statements while failing to disclose that (1) the company recklessly overstated the IGNYTE trial’s prospects, and (2) the FDA was likely to deem the IGNYTE trial inadequate and not well-controlled.
Investors’ hopes for RP1 were severely dashed by its July 22nd announcement. Replimune revealed that the FDA's letter made it clear that the agency was "unable to approve the application in its present form." More critically, the FDA stated that the IGNYTE trial was not considered a sufficiently well-designed or controlled investigation to provide solid proof of the drug's effectiveness. This suggests fundamental issues with how the trial was conducted.
Furthermore, the FDA found that the trial's results could not be properly understood because of the wide variation in the patient population included in the study. Essentially, the patients in the trial were too different from each other, making it difficult to draw reliable conclusions about the drug's impact. The agency also pointed out problems with the design of the necessary confirmatory trial, including questions about how each component of the treatment contributed to the overall effect.
The market reacted swiftly, sending the price of Replimune shares crashing 77% lower on unusually high volume on July 22, 2025.
