INVESTOR ALERT: Levi & Korsinsky, LLP Notifies Shareholders of PTC Therapeutics, Inc. of Class Action Lawsuit and a Lead Plaintiff Deadline of May 2, 2016 – PTCT

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / March 21, 2016 / The following statement is being issued by Levi & Korsinsky, LLP:

To: All persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired securities of PTC Therapeutics, Inc. (“PTC” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: PTCT) between May 7, 2014 and February 29, 2016.

You are hereby notified that a securities class action has been commenced in the USDC for the District of New Jersey. If you purchased or otherwise acquired PTC securities between May 7, 2014 and February 29, 2016, your rights may be affected by this action. To get more information go to: http://www.zlk.com/pslra/ptc-therapeutics.

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, defendants made materially false and misleading statements, and omitted materially adverse facts, about the Company’s business, operations and prospects.

On February 23, 2016, PTC announced that it received a Refuse to File letter from the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) regarding the New Drug Application for Translarna. The FDA stated in the Refuse to File letter that the application was not sufficiently complete to permit a substantive review. Then on February 29, 2016, the Company’s CEO acknowledged that, according to the FDA, the Company did not provide substantial scientific evidence of effectiveness as it eliminated “data from a majority of enrolled patients.”

If you suffered a loss in PTC you have until May 2, 2016 to request that the Court appoint you as lead plaintiff. Your ability to share in any recovery doesn’t require that you serve as a lead plaintiff. To obtain additional information, contact Joseph E.
