STEVENSON, Md., July 14, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey on behalf of purchasers of Regado Biosciences, Inc. ("Regado" or the "Company") (Nasdaq:RGDO) securities pursuant and/or traceable to the Company's Registration Statement and Prospectus issued in connection with the Company's initial public offering on or about August 21, 2013, or on the open market between August 22, 2013 and July 2, 2014, inclusive (the "Class Period").
If you have suffered a loss from investment in Regado securities purchased on or after August 21, 2013 and held through the revelation of negative information during and/or at the end of the Class Period, as described below, and would like to learn more about this lawsuit and your ability to participate as a lead plaintiff, without cost or obligation to you, please visit our website at http://www.browerpiven.com/currentsecuritiescases.html. You may also request more information by contacting Brower Piven either by email at hoffman@browerpiven.com or by telephone at (410) 415-6616. No class has yet been certified in the above action. Members of the Class will be represented by the lead plaintiff and counsel chosen by the lead plaintiff.
If you wish to choose counsel to represent you and the Class, you must apply to be appointed lead plaintiff no later than September 8, 2014 and be selected by the Court. The lead plaintiff will direct the litigation and participate in important decisions including whether to accept a settlement and how much of a settlement to accept for the Class in the action. The lead plaintiff will be selected from among applicants claiming the largest loss from investment in Company units during the Class Period.
The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by virtue of the defendants' failure to disclose during the Class Period that the danger and frequency of allergic reactions experienced by subjects in the REG1 Phase 3 trial were significant enough to derail the trial, that the allergic reactions were of such a serious nature and/or frequency as to have a likely adverse impact on the clinical trial.
According to the complaint, following the Company's July 3, 2014 announcement that Regado was no longer enrolling patients in the study and that it would suspend the trial until the DSMB overseeing the REG1 clinical trial completed an unplanned review regarding the safety of the 3,234 patients already enrolled in the study, the value of Regado shares declined significantly.
Attorneys at Brower Piven have extensive experience in litigating securities and other class action cases and have been advocating for the rights of shareholders since the 1980s. If you choose to retain counsel, you may retain Brower Piven without financial obligation or cost to you, or you may retain other counsel of your choice. You need take no action at this time to be a member of the class.
