The plaintiff claims that Inotek Pharmaceuticals Corp misrepresented the efficacy of its drug candidate trabodenoson—the only drug Inotek Pharmaceuticals Corp currently has in its clinical development pipeline—and its attendant capacity to receive New Drug Approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. In particular, it is alleged that Inotek Pharmaceuticals Corp made positive statements about the drug despite knowledge that the MATrX-1 phase 3 clinical trial of trabodenoson would fail to meet its primary endpoint of statistical relevance in the reduction of intraocular pressure compared with placebo.
Lexington, MA based Inotek Pharmaceuticals Corp is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company that is focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of therapies for glaucoma and other diseases of the eye.
