SAN
FRANCISCO, Oct. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --
Schubert Jonckheer & Kolbe LLP advises Verrica
Pharmaceuticals Inc. investors that the firm is investigating
potential legal claims relating to the company's unsuccessful
efforts in 2021 and 2022 to secure regulatory approval for its drug
product VP-102, designed to treat molluscum. Current shareholders
are encouraged to contact the firm.
On September 3, 2024, Chief Judge
Mitchell S. Goldberg of the U.S.
District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania issued an order denying in part a
motion to dismiss a class action complaint filed against Verrica
and certain of its executive officers. There, it is
alleged that dermatology therapeutics company Verrica
intentionally misled investors between May
2021 and May 2022 about the
prospects of obtaining U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval
for VP-102 (or YCANTH) by concealing known quality control problems
at its contract manufacturer. When the truth was revealed in
May 2022, Verrica's stock fell almost
64%.
The Schubert firm is investigating potential wrongdoing by
Verrica's officers and directors in connection with these
allegations.
