The Schall Law Firm, a national shareholder rights litigation firm, announces that it is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Beam Therapeutics Inc. (“Beam” or “the Company”) (NASDAQ: BEAM) for violations of the securities laws.

The investigation focuses on whether the Company issued false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose information pertinent to investors. Beam issued a press release on August 1, 2022, announcing “that on Friday, July 29, 2022, the company was informed via e-mail communication from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that the BEAM-201 Investigational New Drug (IND) application for the treatment of relapsed/refractory T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL)/T cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LL) has been placed on clinical hold.” The Company added that “the FDA indicated they will provide an official clinical hold letter to Beam within 30 days.” Based on this news, shares of Beam fell sharply in intraday trading.
