On August 8, 2019, after-market hours, Nektar Therapeutics announced that a manufacturing issue caused two out of the twenty batches of bempegaldesleukin to differ from the production line. These faulty batches resulted in variable clinical benefit than other batches used in its PIVOT-02 clinical trial.

Shares of Nektar Therapeutics (NASDAQ: NKTR) declined to as low as $17.30 per share on August 14, 2019.

The plaintiff claims that between February 15, 2019 and August 8, 2019, the Defendants failed to disclose to investors, that the Company did not comply with current good manufacturing practices, that, as a result, batches of NKTR-214 were not produced consistently and differed meaningfully, that clinical results from PIVOT-02 differed based on the batch of NKTR-214 used in the study, that, as a result, the PIVOT-02 study did not produce statistically significant results to support a finding of clinical benefit, and that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

Those who purchased shares of Nektar Therapeutics (NASDAQ: NKTR) have certain options and should contact the Shareholders Foundation.
