About Replimune Group
Replimune Group is a Delaware-incorporated, clinical-stage biotechnology company headquartered in Woburn, Massachusetts. The company focuses on developing oncolytic immunotherapies, primarily built on a herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) backbone, to treat cancer.
Its lead asset, RP1 (vusolimogene oderparepvec), was developed for use in combination with nivolumab for advanced melanoma and other solid tumors. Replimune’s business model relies heavily on the success of RP1, which represented its sole late-stage asset during the relevant period.
What’s Being Investigated
The investigation centers on allegations that Replimune and certain officers and directors may have made misleading statements or omissions regarding the regulatory status and commercial prospects of RP1.
According to multiple company press releases and filings, Replimune repeatedly assured investors that its Biologics License Application (BLA) for RP1 was “on track,” and that the FDA had “not identified any potential review issues.”
However, on July 22, 2025, Replimune disclosed that the FDA had issued a Complete Response Letter (CRL) rejecting the BLA, stating that the pivotal IGNYTE study was “not considered to be an adequate and well-controlled clinical investigation that provides substantial evidence of effectiveness.”
Later, on September 18, 2025, the company revealed that a follow-up “Type A” meeting with the FDA left resulted in their conclusion that "a path forward under the accelerated approval pathway has not been determined.“
These disclosures reportedly contradicted earlier public statements and resulted in sharp stock price declines.
Investors and analysts allege that these events raise questions about the adequacy of the company’s internal controls, risk oversight, and the accuracy of its public disclosures.
Key Timeline
- September 9, 2024: Company announces “positive pre-BLA meeting” and states accelerated-approval filing is “on track” and “aligned with FDA.” Investors allege this fostered expectations of near-term approval.

- September 16, 2025: Type A meeting with FDA is held.
