The Eiger class action lawsuit alleges that throughout the Class Period defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) the defendants overstated Eiger’s clinical and regulatory drug development expertise; (ii) the defendants failed to properly assess, and/or ignored issues with, the design of the TOGETHER study and its ability to support the peginterferon lambda EUA; (iii) there were issues with the conduct of the TOGETHER study and/or the TOGETHER study was not properly designed for the peginterferon lambda EUA in the current context of the pandemic; (iv) as a result, the FDA was unlikely to approve the submission of a peginterferon lambda EUA; and (v) consequently, peginterferon lambda’s regulatory and commercial prospects for the treatment of COVID-19 were overstated.
