Erasca IncSecurities class action lawsuit alleging false statements about preclinical data and patent infringement, causing stock to drop over 45%.
Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP reminds investors in Erasca, Inc. of the August 10, 2026 deadline to seek lead plaintiff appointment in a securities class action against the company. The lawsuit alleges that Erasca and its executives made false or misleading statements about preclinical data for its drug candidate ERAS-0015, which was based on improper comparisons to Revolution Medicines, Inc.'s proprietary compound, exposing Erasca to patent infringement and trade secret misappropriation claims. On April 27, 2026, Erasca disclosed a letter from RevMed's counsel alleging patent infringement and improper data comparisons, causing its stock to fall roughly 10.9 percent from a closing price of $21.49 on April 24 to $19.15 on April 27. Later that day, Erasca reported preliminary Phase 1 data revealing a patient death classified as a Grade 3 treatment-related adverse event and acknowledged that prior comparisons were not based on head-to-head clinical trials, sending shares down more than 45 percent to close at $9.90 on April 28. Investors who purchased Erasca securities between January 14, 2025 and April 26, 2026 and suffered losses may contact the firm to discuss their legal rights.
