SAN FRANCISCO, June 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A securities class action lawsuit styled Ho v. Rocket Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., No. 3:25-cv-10049 (D. N.J.) has been filed and seeks to represent investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Rocket Pharmaceuticals securities between February 27, 2025 and May 26, 2025.
The lawsuit comes after investors saw the price of their shares in Rocket Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Hagens Berman urges Rocket Pharmaceuticals investors who suffered substantial losses to submit your losses now. The firm also encourages persons with knowledge who may be able to assist in the investigation to contact its attorneys.

The Rocket Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (RCKT) Securities Class Action:
The litigation focuses on the propriety of Rocket Pharmaceutical’s disclosures about the trial protocol being implemented in the RP-A501 Phase 2 trial.
More specifically, the complaint alleges that Rocket Pharmaceuticals made materially false and misleading statements while failing to disclose to investors: (1) the true state of RP-A501’s safety and clinical trial protocol; (2) that the company knew Serious Adverse Events (“SAEs”), including patient’s deaths, were at risk; and (3) that the company amended the trials protocol to introduce a novel immunomodulatory agent to the pretreatment regimen.
Investors learned the truth on May 27, 2025, when the company revealed that the FDA put a clinical hold on its Phase 2 study after a patient suffered a SAE and ultimately died. During the May 27, 2025 update call, in response to analysts’ questions, management revealed that the company amended the trial protocol “several months ago[.]” The analysts were seemingly unaware of the company’s amendments before this update call.
This news drove the price of Rocket Pharmaceutical’s shares crashing $3.94 (-62%) the same day.
“We’re investigating claims that Rocket Pharmaceuticals may have misled investors about its Phase 2 protocol and whether it secretly amended it without first notifying the FDA and investors,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
