Investors have until September 14, 2026, to ask the Court to be appointed to lead the case. The complaint asserts securities fraud claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on behalf of investors in Regeneron securities. The class action is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. It is captioned _Cheathem v. Regeneron Pharm., Inc., et al._, No. 26-cv-6026.

**Why is Regeneron Being Sued for Securities Fraud?**

Regeneron is a pharmaceutical company that discovers, invents, develops, manufactures, tests, and commercializes medicines to treat various disorders.

During the relevant period, Regeneron was investigating Fianlimab, a human monoclonal antibody targeting the LAG-3 immune checkpoint receptor on T-cells. Specifically, Regeneron was testing Fianlimab in combination with Libtayo in a Phase III study to determine whether the drug combination could serve as a first-line treatment for advanced melanoma.

Regeneron told investors that it had “a lot of hope and confidence” that the Phase III trial “can generate a meaningful differentiation against current standards of care.” Further, despite acknowledging that study results had slowed, Regeneron told investors that this was likely because “there was a high level of response and those response\[s\] are very durable” and that the combination drug was a “potential blockbuster.”

In truth, as alleged, the Phase III Fianlimab-Libtayo study did not achieve statistically significant results.

**Why did Regeneron’s Stock Drop?**

On April 29, 2026, before market hours, Regeneron announced the Phase III Fianlimab-Libtayo study “will now consider all patients enrolled in the study with a minimum follow-up of 6 months.” This expansion of the study parameters indicated the study did not have enough positive results to achieve statistical significance. This news caused the price of Regeneron stock to decline $45.41 per share, or 6.2%, from a closing price of $731.77 per share on April 28, 2026, to $686.36 per share on April 29, 2026.

Then, on May 15, 2026, after market hours, Regeneron published a press release stating that the Phase III Fianlimab-Libtayo “did not reach statistical significance for the primary endpoint” tested. This news caused the price of Regeneron stock to decline $68.57 per share, or 9.8%, from a closing price of $698.25 per share on May 15, 2026, to $629.68 per share on May 18, 2026.
