According to the complaint, during the class period Defendants misled investors by concealing (a) improper payments to doctors to promote its drug Korlym, (b) its aggressive promotion of Korlym for off-label uses, and (c) the possibility that the Company’s sole specialty pharmacy was a related party.
In response to reports highlighting this- and other- potential misconduct, the price of Corcept shares has significantly fallen.
“We’re focused on investors’ losses and whether Defendants used a captured pharmacy to improperly boost sales or hide losses,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.
