(NasdaqGS: FGEN), if they purchased the Company’s securities and/or sold put options between November 8, 2019 and April 6, 2021, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

About the Lawsuit

FibroGen and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws.

On April 6, 2021, post-market, the Company disclosed that cardiovascular safety data it had previously submitted for the Phase 3 program of its roxadustat product “included post-hoc changes to the stratification factors.” As a result of these changes, the complaint alleges, the Company was forced to concede that roxadustat did not reduce the risk of cardiovascular events or hospitalization as compared to a currently approved anemia injection used as a control based on pre-specified stratification factors, contrary to prior representations.

On this news, shares of FibroGen plummeted $14.90, or 43%, to close at $19.74 per share on April 7, 2021, on heavy volume.

The case is Xu v. Fibrogen, Inc., et al., No. 21-cv- 2623.
