Case Background:
This is a federal securities fraud class action lawsuit on behalf of those who purchased or otherwise acquired ImmunityBio, Inc. (“ImmunityBio”) (NASDAQ: IBRX) securities between January 19, 2026 and March 24, 2026, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

On March 24, 2026, Bloomberg reported that ImmunityBio had receive a Warning Letter from the FDA stating that the company’s Executive Chairman and Global Chief Scientific and Medical Officer, Patrick Soon-Shiong, made inaccurate claims on a podcast regarding ImmunityBio’s lead biologic product, Anktiva, including that the drug “can cure and even prevent all cancer.” The FDA thus “determined that the TV ad and podcast [for Anktiva] are false or misleading” and “make the distribution of the drug in violation of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.”

On this news, ImmunityBio’s stock price fell $1.98 per share, or 21.12%, to close at $7.42 per share on March 24, 2026.

The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material facts about the company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants misrepresented and/or failed to disclose that: (1) ImmunityBio’s claim that Anktiva is a cancer vaccine was false; (2) ImmunityBio’s Executive Chairman and Global Scientific and Medical Officer materially overstated Anktiva’s capabilities; and (3) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
