According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges that the defendants violated the federal securities laws by misleading  investors regarding the status of Hemispherx's New Drug Application ("NDA") for its drug Ampligen with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). Specifically, so the lawsuit, defendants failed to disclose that the FDA had requested several reports from Hemispherx Biopharma before the NDA could even be considered, thus delaying the possible approval of Ampligen by several months at a minimum. Then, on November 2, 2009, when Hemispherx Biopharma disclosed this information, the price of Hemispherx Biopharma securities (HEB) fell 20% to close at $1.13 on the next trading day, November 3, 2009.
Hemispherx BioPharma, Inc said in a press release that it believes that the lawsuit is without merit and the fraud claim is irrefutably false.
