Neovasc Reducer
Neovasc Inc. (NVCN) is a specialty medical device company that creates cardiovascular devices for the domestic and international market. Neovasc’s products include the Neovasc Reducer, which is under review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of patients with refractory angina pectoris.
In 2019, the FDA recommended that Neovasc collect more pre-market blinded data before submitting a pre-market approval (PMA) application for the Reducer. Neovasc declined to take the FDA’s recommendation to gather more data and submitted a PMA, claiming that they had enough evidence and didn’t want to delay getting the Reducer to patients.
On October, 28, 2020, Neovasc announced that the FDA’s Circulatory Systems Devices Advisory Panel had voted against the safety and effectiveness of the Reducer. The panel stated that “the lack of blinding assessment made the primary endpoint difficult to interpret,” and reached a consensus that “additional premarket randomized clinical data was necessary.”
That news caused Neovasc’s stock price to decline by an incredible 42%, causing losses for investors.
Public Offering
In February of 2019, Neovasc announced the public offering of more than 11 million shares of stock, which was expected to raise $5 million. H.C. Wainwright & Co. was the sole book-running manager (underwriter) for the offering.
If you believe your financial advisor negligently recommended that you invest in Neovasc, improperly recommended an overconcentrated position in Neovasc, or otherwise mishandled your account, you may also have a claim against your financial advisor which can be pursued through securities or FINRA arbitration.
