Investors allege that Mereo and certain executives made materially false and misleading statements about the likelihood of success of its Phase 3 clinical trials for setrusumab, a treatment for Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI).

Specifically, defendants repeatedly expressed confidence that:

The ORBIT and COSMIC Phase 3 trials would
Achieve statistical significance in reducing annualized fracture rates (AFR)
Position setrusumab for regulatory success

While promoting these optimistic projections, the complaint claims the company concealed adverse facts showing:

Neither Phase 3 study was on track to meet its primary endpoint
The trials ultimately failed to demonstrate AFR reduction versus control groups

Corrective Disclosure & Stock Collapse

On December 29, 2025, Mereo issued a press release revealing that:

Neither ORBIT nor COSMIC achieved statistical significance
The primary endpoint — reduction in AFR — was not met
Improvements in bone mineral density did not offset failure of core efficacy goals

Following this disclosure:

Share price fell from $2.31 to $0.29 in one trading session
Representing a loss of over 87% of shareholder value

Investors seeking appointment as Lead Plaintiff may file a motion with the court no later than April 6, 2026.
