A securities class action lawsuit has been filed against Erasca (Nasdaq: ERAS) in the United States — United States District Court for the Southern District of California, alleging violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The lawsuit claims that Erasca and certain executives made false or misleading statements regarding its drug candidate ERAS-0015, including improper comparisons to Revolution Medicines and failure to disclose patent infringement risks. On April 27, 2026, Erasca disclosed receiving a patent infringement letter from Revolution Medicines, causing an 11% stock drop. Later that day, Erasca reported Phase I clinical data revealing a patient death, leading to a further 48% decline. Investors who purchased Erasca stock between January 14, 2025 and April 26, 2026 have until August 10, 2026 to seek lead plaintiff appointment. The law firm Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP LLP is representing the class.
