The Allegations: Robbins LLP is Investigating Allegations that MoonLake Immunotherapeutics (MLTX) Mislead Investors Regarding the Efficacy of its Drug Candidate
According to the complaint, during the class period, defendants disclose material facts, regarding the distinction between the Nanobodies and monoclonal antibodies, including that: (1) that SLK (MoonLake’s phase 2 drug) and BIMZELX (the FDA approved drug against which SLK would have to demonstrate superior efficacy) share the same molecular targets (the inflammatory cytokines IL-17A and IL-17F); (2) that SLK’s distinct Nanobody structure would not confer a superior clinical benefit over the traditional monoclonal structure of BIMZELX; (3) SLK’s distinct Nanobody structure supposed increased tissue penetration would not translate to clinical efficacy; and (4) based on the foregoing, defendants lacked a reasonable basis for their positive statements regarding SLK’s purported superiority to monoclonal antibodies.
Plaintiff alleges that on September 28, 2025, MoonLake announced week-16 results from its Phase 3 VELA program. The results showed that SLK failed to demonstrate competitive efficacy relative to BIMZELX. Following the announcement, MoonLake’s stock price cratered, falling $55.75 per share, or 89.9%, to close at $6.24 on September 29, 2025.
