According to recently filed lawsuits, Cassava and members of senior management misrepresented the quality and integrity of the scientific data supporting the Company's claims regarding the efficacy of its Alzheimer's drug, simufilam.
On August 24, 2021, reports surfaced that a citizen petition was submitted to the FDA raising serious concerns about the quality and integrity of the studies surrounding simufilam. The petition further identified "errors and anomalies" in the data "of a sufficient frequency and magnitude to strongly suggest scientific misconduct." As additional facts came to light regarding Cassava's clinical trial, the price of the Company's shares declined precipitously, from a closing price of $117.83 on August 24, 2021 to a closing price of $58.34 per share on August 27 - a decline of 50%.
