NASDAQ: RARE: Law firm announces filing of securities lawsuit
In the period between August 3, 2023, and December 26, 2025, were you a purchaser of RARE common stock? A class action lawsuit regarding securities fraud has been initiated against Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc., with key allegations related to the company’s drug, setrusumab.
Throughout the Class Period, Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc. (NASDAQ: RARE) allegedly made misleading statements and omissions concerning their drug, setrusumab, particularly in their Phase III Orbit study. It is claimed that Ultragenyx gave the impression that they possessed reliable information on the effects of setrusumab while downplaying the risks associated with the study’s results.
Defendants had allegedly minimized the risk that patients in the Phase III Orbit study would not achieve a statistically significant reduction in annualized fracture rate (AFR) necessary for the second interim analysis, which would then be presented to the public. The lawsuit alleges that Ultragenyx’s optimism was misplaced, as the company failed to communicate the potential risks involved in basing their benchmark figures on Phase II results that lacked a placebo control group for a proper comparison.
It is further claimed that Ultragenyx’s positive statements about the company’s business, operations, and prospects were misleading and lacked a reasonable basis. Investors who were affected by these alleged actions have until April 6, 2026, to seek lead plaintiff status in the lawsuit.
