The law firm of Kirby McInerney LLP alerts investors of the imminent February 18, 2025 deadline, to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action filed on behalf of those who acquired Applied Therapeutics, Inc. ('Applied Therapeutics' or the 'Company') (NASDAQ:APLT) securities between January 3, 2024, to December 2, 2024 ('the Class Period'). The firm encourages investors to contact the firm as soon as possible to be appointed lead plaintiff.
[LEARN MORE ABOUT THE CLASS ACTION]
On November 27, 2024, Applied Therapeutics issued a press release announcing that it had received a Complete Response Letter ('CRL') for the New Drug Application ('NDA') for govorestat, the Company's lead product candidate. The CRL indicated that the FDA had completed its review of the application and determined that it was unable to approve the NDA in its current form citing deficiencies in the clinical application. On this news, the price of Applied Therapeutics shares declined by $6.54 per share, or approximately 76%, from $8.57 per share on November 27, 2024, to close at $2.03 per share on December 2, 2024.
Then, on December 2, 2024, after market hours, Applied Therapeutics disclosed that it had received a 'warning letter' from the FDA referring to the clinical trial issues underlying the CRL. According to the Company's description of the warning letter, the FDA stated in pertinent part that: 'The letter identified issues related to electronic data capture, which the Company believes were addressed in prior communications with the agency, including by providing detailed paper and video records. The letter also refers to a dosing error in the dose escalation phase of the study resulting in slightly lower levels that targeted in a limited number of patients, which were remedied prior to achieving maintenance dosing identified issues related to electronic data capture and a dosing error in the dose-escalation phase of the study, resulting in slightly lower levels than targeted in a limited number of patients. On this news, the price of Applied Therapeutics shares declined by $0.49 per share, or more than 25%, over 3 consecutive days, from $1.75 per share on December 2, 2024, to $1.69 on December 3, 2024, $1.38 on December 4, 2024, and finally, to close at $1.29 on December 5, 2024.
The lawsuit alleges that Defendants, throughout the Class Period, misled investors by providing positive statements to investors, while at the same time concealing material adverse facts concerning the true state of Applied Therapeutic's trials; notably, electronic data capture issues and a dosing error in the dose-escalation phase of the study.

UK Regulator Partners with Nvidia to Help Banks Test AI Tools
NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) is one of the best Dow stocks to invest in. Recently, Britain's financial regulator announced a partnership with the company to help banks safely explore artificial intelligence technologies. The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) revealed plans to launch a new 'Supercharged Sandbox' in October, aimed at supporting financial institutions in the early stages of AI experimentation. Through this initiative, firms will gain access to NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA)'s accelerated computing tools and AI Enterprise Software, along with improved data, technical expertise, and regulatory guidance to help speed up innovation. A close-up of a colorful high-end graphics card being plugged in to a gaming computer. The FCA noted that this program is intended for companies still in the early "discovery and experiment" stage of AI adoption, while a separate testing environment is already available for firms further along in development. Jessica Rusu, the FCA's chief data, intelligence and information officer, made the following comment: 'This collaboration will help those that want to test AI ideas but who lack the capabilities to do so. We'll help firms harness AI to benefit our markets and consumers, while supporting economic growth.' NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) produces the graphics processing units (GPUs) that power the training and operation of advanced AI models. The stock has surged by nearly 4% since the start of 2025. While we acknowledge the potential of NVDA as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk. If you're looking for an extremely undervalued AI stock that also stands to benefit significantly from Trump-era tariffs and the onshoring trend, see our free report on the best short-term AI stock.
