About the lawsuit: During the class period, Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc allegedly made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: Throughout the Class Period, the Company continued to tout the commercial prospects for selinexor and consistently described selinexor as having a "predictable and manageable tolerability profile" and a "very nice safety profile," and assured investors that it was "well tolerated" by patients.

As a result of these misrepresentations, Karyopharm shares traded at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period.
