Thomas J. O'Connor Adoption Center celebrates devoted volunteers
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WWLP) – The Thomas J. O'Connor animal control and adoption center in Springfield put a spotlight on the volunteers who have dedicated themselves to helping animals in need. The TJO staff was joined by Mayor Domenic Sarno to put on the appreciation party to celebrate their volunteers, and say 'thank you' for their efforts. TJO says thousands of animals go through their doors every year, and the volunteers go above and beyond to make sure they are loved and cared for. Interim Exec. Director Heather Cahillane told 22News, 'It's one of the most rewarding things that you can imagine. You see animals come in, sometimes at the worst part of their life—and you get to see them heal, bloom, and blossom—go to a new adoptive home— it's a pretty amazing feeling.' TJO is also in need of people to foster animals.

Gainey McKenna & Egleston Announces a Class Action Lawsuit Has Been Filed Against Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (ATNM)
NEW YORK, March 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces that a securities class action lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of all persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ('Actinium' or the 'Company') (NYSE: ATNM) securities between October 31, 2022 and August 2, 2024, inclusive (the 'Class Period'). The lawsuit seeks to recover damages for the Company's investors under the federal securities laws. The Complaint alleges that Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company's business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, the Complaint alleges that the Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (1) the Company's data from Sierra Trial was unlikely to satisfy the FDA's guidelines for the acceptance and approval of the Company's Iomab-B BLA; (2) the additional analyses, including long-term follow-ups that purportedly demonstrated a trend towards improved Overall Survival that the Company provided to the FDA in an attempt to mitigate the Sierra Trial's poor OS data were unlikely to satisfy the FDA's guidelines for the acceptance and approval of the Company's Iomab-B BLA; (3) as a result, the FDA would likely refuse to review the Iomab-B BLA or, if it did consider that BLA, that the application in its current form was unlikely to be approved; and (4), as a result, Defendants' positive statements about the Company's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. According to the Complaint, the truth began to reach the market on August 5, 2024, when the Company announced that 'the analyses from the Sierra Trial do not adequately support a BLA filing for Iomab-B and requires an additional clinical study,' and Actinium's stock price suffered significant declines, harming investors. Investors who purchased or otherwise acquired shares of Actinium should contact the Firm prior to the May 26, 2025 lead plaintiff motion deadline. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. If you wish to discuss your rights or interests regarding this class action, please contact Thomas J. McKenna, Esq. or Gregory M. Egleston, Esq. of Gainey McKenna & Egleston at (212) 983-1300, or via e-mail at [email protected] or [email protected].

Gainey McKenna & Egleston Announces A Class Action Lawsuit Has Been Filed Against Geron Corporation (GERN)
NEW YORK, March 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces that a securities class action lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of all persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Geron Corporation ('Geron' or the 'Company') (NASDAQ: GERN) securities between June 7, 2024 and February 25, 2025, inclusive (the 'Class Period'). The Complaint alleges that Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) the Company created the false impression that they possessed reliable information pertaining to its projected revenue outlook and anticipated growth while also minimizing risk from seasonality and macroeconomic fluctuations; (ii) in truth, the Company's optimistic reports of Rytelo's launch success and potential growth fell short of reality as the impacts of seasonality, existing competition, and the burden of continued monitoring played a much more significant role in patient starts than defendants had implied; and (iii) Rytelo lacked the necessary awareness to penetrate the market, resulting in an inability for Geron to capitalize on the purportedly significant unmet need for the drug, particularly among first-line patients and those outside the academic setting. The Complaint further alleges that on February 26, 2025, the Company announced its financial results for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024, disclosing that Rytelo's growth had flattened over the preceding months, attributing the diminished growth on seasonality, competition, lack of awareness for Rytelo, and the burden of the monitoring requirement necessary for the drug treatment. On this news, the Company's stock price declined more than 32%. Investors who purchased or otherwise acquired shares of Geron should contact the Firm prior to the May 12, 2025 lead plaintiff motion deadline. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. If you wish to discuss your rights or interests regarding this class action, please contact Thomas J. McKenna, Esq. or Gregory M. Egleston, Esq. of Gainey McKenna & Egleston at (212) 983-1300, or via e-mail at [email protected] or [email protected].
