Class Action Lawsuit Alert: AVXL Investors Notified by The Gross Law Firm of Legal Action and Deadline

Shareholders who acquired shares of AVXL within the specified class period are urged to reach out to the firm regarding potential lead plaintiff designation. It is not mandatory to be appointed as lead plaintiff to participate in any recovery.

CLASS PERIOD: February 1, 2022, to January 1, 2024 ALLEGATIONS: The assertion contends that on December 2, 2022, AVXL disclosed favorable topline outcomes from its Phase 2b/3 ANAVEX®2-73-AD-004 clinical trial of oral ANAVEX®2-73 (blarcamesine) for addressing mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and mild AD (early AD). ANAVEX®2-73 achieved the primary endpoints ADAS-Cog1 and ADCS-ADL2 and the key secondary endpoint CDR-SB3 with statistically significant results. An analyst raised doubts about the Company’s assertion, stating “there are several key factors that point us to believe the data is provocative, but not yet compelling, given the choice of statistical analyses and other trial design/conduct ‘complexifiers’.” Furthermore, a biotech journalist remarked on AVXL’s discoveries, saying “[w]hat sets Anavex apart from all the other biotechs on my radar screen is its habit of shifting the goalposts on clinical trials…Anavex announced “positive” outcomes from studies of its drug called blarcamesine — except the results were derived from efficacy endpoints that were not part of the original study designs.” Subsequent to this development, AVXL’s stock price dropped by \(2.47 per share, approximately 20%, to conclude at \)9.58. Moreover, on January 3, 2024, AVXL publicized that outcomes from its Phase 23 EXCELLENCE clinical trial for its prospective ANAVEX®2-73 in pediatric patients with Rett syndrome failed to demonstrate statistical significance towards its primary endpoints. Biotech analysts remarked that “the negative study outcome was never in doubt…Anavex is a serial dissembler of clinical trial results.” Following this disclosure, AVXL’s stock price plummeted by $3.26 per share, around 35%.
