SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC Announces Investigation of Catalyst Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (CPRX)

NEW YORK, Feb. 17, 2016

This investigation concerns whether Catalyst and certain of its officers and/or directors have violated the Federal Securities Laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). 

On February 17, 2016, pre-market, Catalyst revealed that it has received a "Refusal To File" letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in relation to Firdapse (amifampridine phosphate), its New Drug Application.  The "Refusal to File" letter explains that following December 2015 submission and the initial review, the FDA has found that the application was not adequately complete and needs additional supporting information.  The letter does not note the acceptability of the clinical data and does not discuss the efficacy or safety of Firdapse. 

Following this news, Catalyst stock has fallen as much as $0.92 per share, or roughly 50%, to just $0.93 per share during early intraday trading on February 17, 2016.
