Robbins LLP Files Class Action Against Sarepta Therapeutics Over ELEVIDYS Deaths.
Robbins LLP has filed a securities class action on behalf of investors who purchased shares of Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: SRPT) between June 22, 2023 and June 24, 2025.
The lawsuit centers on alleged misrepresentations related to the safety of ELEVIDYS, Sarepta’s gene therapy for Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
According to the complaint, Sarepta failed to disclose serious risks associated with ELEVIDYS, including:
-
Reports of life-threatening side effects during clinical trials;
-
Inadequate monitoring protocols that failed to catch early warning signs;
-
The potential for regulatory delays and trial suspensions resulting from adverse events.
Sarepta’s stock dropped sharply after a series of safety disclosures related to ELEVIDYS. On March 18, 2025, the company announced a patient had died following treatment, sending shares down over 27% to close at $73.54.
Less than three months later, on June 15, a second death, this time due to acute liver failure, prompted Sarepta to pause shipments and dosing in certain trials.
The stock plunged again, closing at $20.91 after a 42% drop. Then, on June 24, the FDA confirmed it was investigating liver failure risks tied to ELEVIDYS, and the stock fell further to $17.46 the next day.
Investors who incurred losses during this period may be eligible to join the lawsuit. The deadline to apply for lead plaintiff is August 25, 2025, though participation is not required to benefit from any potential recovery.
