In 2008 Immunomedics entered into an agreement with Nycomed GmbH ("Nycomed"), wherein the Company issued Nycomed a worldwide license to develop, manufacture, and commercialize Veltuzumab, an antibody for treatment of non-cancer indications. Then in 2011, Nycomed was acquired by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company; as a result of this agreement, Takeda-Nycomed was responsible for completing the clinical development and obtainment of regulatory approval for Veltuzumab. The complaint alleges that the defendants made positive statements about Veltuzumab and its development by Takeda-Nycomed, despite the fact that Takeda-Nycomed and the Company were engaged in a dispute regarding a delay in the antibody's development. On October 9, 2013, Immunomedics announced that its agreement with Takeda-Nycomed had been terminated.
If you suffered a loss in Immunomedics you have until April 28, 2014 to request that the Court appoint you as lead plaintiff. Your ability to share in any recovery doesn't require that you serve as a lead plaintiff. To obtain additional information, contact Joseph E.
