According to the Complaint, Odonate Therapeutics, Inc. is a pharmaceutical company that develops therapeutics for the treatment of cancer. The Company is focused on developing tesetaxel, an orally administered chemotherapy agent.

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business, operational, and compliance policies. Specifically, the Complaint alleges Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) tesetaxel was not as safe or well-tolerated as the Company had led investors to believe; (ii) consequently, tesetaxel's commercial viability as a cancer treatment was overstated; and (iii) as a result, the Company's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
