IntelliPharmaCeutics Accused of Submitting Insufficient Data for Approval of Its Drug

According to the complaint, IntelliPharmaCeutics portrayed a positive picture of its drug Rexista, an abuse-deterrent oxycodone hydrochloride extended release in tablet form, in its public filings and statements. For example, the company noted that its "suite of abuse-deterrent and overdose prevention technologies are best in class and we look forward to further expanding our development program for abuse-deterrent pain and other medications." Despite the company's confidence in its drug, the complaint alleges that IntelliPharmaCeutics failed to conduct a human abuse liability study to support its Rexista New Drug Application ("NDA") and that the company was not submitting sufficient data to support approval of the Rexista NDA. On July 27, 2017, IntelliPharmaCeutics revealed that its NDA was not approved, that the company did not demonstrate that Rexista was expected to deter abuse by the intravenous route of administration, and that there was insufficient data for Rexista to support inclusion of language regarding abuse-deterrent properties in the product label for the intravenous route of administration. As the truth was revealed to investors, IntelliPharmaCeutics' stock declined approximately 45.6% to close at $1.36 per share on July 27, 2017.
