Business Wire 9-Dec-2024 6:35 PM

Scott+Scott Attorneys at Law LLP ("Scott+Scott"), an international shareholder and consumer rights litigation firm, has filed a securities Class Action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against Kyverna Therapeutics, Inc. ("Kyverna" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:KYTX), certain directors and officers, and the underwriters of Kyverna's February 8, 2024 initial public offering ("IPO"), alleging violations of §§11, 12 and 15 of the Securities Act (15 U.S.C. §§77k, 77l(a)(2), and 77o). The Class Action filed by Scott+Scott is captioned: Rondini v. Kyverna Therapeutics, Inc., et al, Case No. 3:24-cv-8869 (N.D. Cal.).

Kyverna is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing cell therapies for patients suffering from autoimmune diseases. The Company's lead product candidate is KYV-101. According to the Complaint, the registration statement and prospectus used to effectuate the Company's IPO misstated and/or omitted facts concerning the results of the Company's ongoing evaluation of KYV-101 in clinical trials. Specifically, the Company touted patient "improvement" in certain indicators while failing to disclose adverse data regarding one of Kyverna's trials, which adverse data was known to the Company at the time of the IPO. As a result, investors purchased Kyverna shares at artificially inflated prices.

As these true facts emerged after the Offering, the Company's shares fell sharply, severely harming investors. By the commencement of this action, Kyverna's shares traded as low as $3.92 per share, a decline of more than 82% from the Offering Price.

Lead Plaintiff Deadline

The Lead Plaintiff deadline in this action is February 7, 2025. Any member of the proposed Class may seek to serve as Lead Plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain a member of the proposed Class.
