BOCA RATON, FL--(Marketwired - Apr 11, 2013) - Saxena White P.A . has filed a securities fraud class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada against Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Spectrum" or the "Company") (
Spectrum is a biotechnology company with fully integrated commercial and drug development operations, with a primary focus in hematology and oncology. The Company's primary strategy is comprised of acquiring, developing and commercializing a broad and diverse pipeline of late-stage clinical and commercial products. The company markets two oncology drugs, ZEVALIN and FUSILEV.
The filed complaint alleges that, during the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts concerning Spectrum's business, operations and prospects. Specifically, Defendants made false and misleading statements and failed to disclose that: (a) Spectrum's sales of FUSILEV would drastically decline once the generic folate analog, leucovorin, was made available; (b) the purported advantages of FUSILEV over generic leucovorin were negligible and would not be enough to convince clinics and hospitals to continue to use the more expensive FUSILEV once the leucovorin shortage was eliminated; and (c) based upon the above, the Defendants lacked a reasonable basis for their positive statements about the Company and its revenue earnings during the class period.
