  • $CKPT stockholder filed a claim vs. Checkpoint for downplaying its regulatory setbacks.
  • On December 18, 2023, news about the FDA rejection caused $CKPT to fall 44.8%, losing $34M+ in shareholder value.
On December 18, 2023, Checkpoint issued a press release announcing that the FDA has issued a complete response letter (‘CRL’) for the biologic license application (‘BLA’) for the treatment of patients with metastatic or locally advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma who are not candidates for curative surgery or radiation.
  • The CRL only cites findings that arose during a multi-sponsor inspection of Checkpoint’s third-party contract manufacturing organization as approvability issues to address in a resubmission.
  • The Company’s President and CEO stated that “we believe we can address the feedback in a resubmission to enable marketing approval in 2024”.
On this news, $CKPT fell 44.88% and lost over $34 million of its market capitalization, seriously damaging shareholders.

Considering all the information, investors might have grounds to suspect Checkpoint of having regulatory problems delaying FDA approval of a treatment for an indeterminate period, which led to their losses.

The first investor has filed the initial claim over this situation in S.D. New York court to recover thier losses.
