Boston, MA based Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company, develops and commercializes oncology and hematology drug products.

Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. conducting a phase 2 clinical trial called ZENITH20.

The ZENITH20 trial was an ongoing, multicenter, multi-cohort, open-label, activity-estimating study evaluating the anti-tumor effects, safety, and tolerability of poziotinib, or "pozi", in patients with locally advanced or metastatic non small cell lung cancer ("NSCLC") that have certain mutations (HER2 exon 20 insertion mutations) and were previously treated with the standard of care.

The plaintiff alleges that between December 6, 2021 through September 22, 2022, the defendants represented the safety and efficacy data from the ZENITH20 trial were positive and that they had initiated a required confirmatory phase 3 study and that unknown to investors this was not true.

On September 20, 2022, before the market opened, investors began to learn the truth when the FDA Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee ("ODAC") released a briefing document in anticipation of its September 22, 2022 meeting with Defendants to review poziotinib.

The plaintiff alleges that investors were surprised when, despite the Company's repeated representations between December 6, 2021 through September 22, 2022 that the data for ZENITH20 were positive, the ODAC briefing document disclosed not only negative data on the safety and efficacy of pozi, but also a failure by the Company to enroll any patients in a required phase 3 confirmatory trial.

On September 22, 2022, ODAC conducted its meeting concerning poziotinib and it later voted 9-4 not to recommend poziotinib for accelerated approval.
