NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C., a nationally recognized shareholder law firm, reminds investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the District of Utah on behalf of investors that purchased Lipocine, Inc.

Investors have until January 14, 2020 to apply to the Court to be appointed as lead plaintiff in the lawsuit.

Lipocines lead product candidate is TLANDO (LPCN 1021), an oral testosterone replacement therapy. The Company has previously submitted New Drug Applications (NDA) for TLANDO twice and, both times, received Complete Response Letters (CRL) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) rejecting the NDAs. The Company received the first CRL in June 2016 and the second in May 2018.

On March 27, 2019, Lipocine issued a press release announcing new topline results from a study evaluating TLANDOs effects on blood pressure (one issue cited by the FDA in a prior CRL rejecting TLANDOs NDA), as well as the Companys intention to refile the NDA for TLANDO in the second quarter of 2019.

On November 11, 2019, Lipocine issued a press release announcing receipt of a CRL from the FDA regarding its NDA for TLANDO. In the press release, Lipocine advised investors that the FDA had again rejected the NDA for TLANDOthis time because an efficacy trial had not met three of its secondary endpoints.

On this news, Lipocines stock price fell $1.93 per share, or 70.7%, to close at $0.80 per share on November 11, 2019.

The Complaint, filed on November 14, 2019, alleges that throughout the Class Period defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Companys business, operational and compliance policies. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) the results from Lipocines clinical studies of TLANDO were insufficient to demonstrate the drugs efficacy; (ii) accordingly, Lipocines third NDA for TLANDO was highly likely to be found deficient by the FDA; and (iii) as a result, the Companys public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
