The Klein Law Firm announces that a class action complaint has been filed on behalf of shareholders of Cassava Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: SAVA) who purchased shares between February 2, 2021 and August 24, 2021. The action, which was filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas, alleges that the Company violated federal securities laws.
(a) the quality and integrity of the scientific data supporting Cassava’s claims for simufilam’s, a small molecule drug designed to treat Alzheimer’s disease, efficacy had been overstated; (b) the scientific data supporting Cassava’s claims for simufilam’s efficacy were biased; and (c) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements during the Class Period about the Company’s business metrics and financial prospects and the likelihood of Food and Drug Administration approval were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
