Lead Plaintiff motion deadline- $CAPR investors filed a claim against Capricor Therapeutics for misleading the market about its lead therapy deramiocel’s regulatory prospects, overstating efficacy signals, and concealing critical issues with its FDA approval pathway.
- After the company canceled its advisory committee meeting, received a Complete Response Letter from the FDA, and disclosed the failure to secure accelerated approval, $CAPR dropped 62.7% across multiple disclosures, including 26.4% on June 27, 2025, and 36.3% on July 11, 2025.
Case Details:
Between October 9, 2024, and July 10, 2025, Capricor promoted deramiocel (CAP-1002) as a strong candidate for accelerated FDA approval to treat Duchenne muscular dystrophy-related cardiomyopathy. Executives claimed the drug’s Phase 2 HOPE-2 trial supported regulatory success and repeatedly suggested that accelerated approval was likely.
In truth, the company lacked sufficient data to meet FDA standards. On June 26, 2025, Capricor revealed that the FDA canceled its advisory committee meeting and raised significant concerns. $CAPR dropped 26.4%. Then on July 11, 2025, Capricor disclosed that the FDA issued a Complete Response Letter, refusing to approve deramiocel due to lack of substantial evidence. The stock fell another 36.3%.
Based on these events, $CAPR investors filed a claim against Capricor, alleging the company:
- It misled investors about the likelihood of accelerated FDA approval.
- It concealed material feedback from the FDA casting doubt on efficacy data.
- It withheld regulatory setbacks until after stock-boosting public statements.
Investors believe Capricor misrepresented deramiocel’s approval prospects to inflate its valuation and delay the fallout from critical regulatory risks.
