On March 4, 2025, Levi & Korsinsky, LLP, a law firm based in New York, announced that they have commenced a class action securities lawsuit against Neumora Therapeutics, Inc. (NMRA) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.
Background on Neumora Therapeutics, Inc.
Neumora Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing cannabinoid-based therapeutics. The company’s lead product candidate, NM-001, is a proprietary, oral, and immediate-release cannabidiol (CBD) formulation in development for the treatment of essential tremor and other neuropsychiatric disorders.
The Class Action Lawsuit
The class action lawsuit alleges that Neumora Therapeutics, Inc. and certain of its officers and directors made false and misleading statements and failed to disclose material information to investors, specifically regarding the development and regulatory status of NM-001.
According to the complaint, the defendants made false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that:
- NM-001’s clinical trial data was insufficient to support regulatory approval;
- The regulatory approval process for NM-001 was likely to be delayed;
- The Company’s clinical trials for NM-001 did not demonstrate the efficacy and safety required for regulatory approval;
- There were significant issues with Neumora Therapeutics, Inc.’s manufacturing processes for NM-001.
As a result of these alleged false statements and omissions, Neumora Therapeutics, Inc.’s stock traded at artificially inflated prices between August 14, 2020, and February 11, 2022.
What Does This Mean for Neumora Therapeutics, Inc. Investors?
If you invested in Neumora Therapeutics, Inc. and purchased or acquired the Company’s securities between August 14, 2020, and February 11, 2022, you may be entitled to compensation. The lead plaintiff must file a motion for preliminary approval of the proposed class within sixty days from the filing date. If the motion is granted, the lead plaintiff will be appointed as the representative of all persons in the proposed class.
How Will This Impact the Biotech Industry and the World?
The outcome of this lawsuit could potentially have far-reaching implications for the biotech industry and investor confidence in clinical-stage companies. If the allegations are proven true, it could set a precedent for increased regulatory scrutiny and transparency in the reporting of clinical trial data and regulatory approval processes.
Moreover, this lawsuit could impact the public’s trust in the biotech sector and potentially discourage investors from putting their money into clinical-stage companies, especially those in the cannabinoid therapeutics space. It could also lead to increased regulatory oversight and potential changes in securities laws and regulations to protect investors from misleading information.
Conclusion
The class action securities lawsuit against Neumora Therapeutics, Inc. is an important development for investors in the biotech sector, particularly those with holdings in clinical-stage companies. The outcome of this lawsuit could have significant implications for the industry, investor confidence, and securities regulations.
