Claim deadline
Reata Pharmaceuticals (RETA) agreed to settle $45 million with shareholders to end claims over failing to disclose concerns about the validity of a clinical study for kidney disease candidate, bardoxolone.

Case Details:

Reata Pharmaceuticals developed a drug called bardoxolone for kidney disease. They applied for FDA approval, highlighting positive study results.

However, Reata supposedly didn't reveal FDA concerns about the study's validity, risking the drug's approval.

On December 6, 2021, the FDA questioned the study design, causing $RETA to drop by 38%.

Two days later, the FDA declared bardoxolone ineffective, leading to an additional 46% $RETA decline.

Reata has now decided to resolve all the allegations and pay a $45M settlement.
