The investigation concerns whether Regulus and certain of its officers and/or directors have violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

On June 27, 2016, Regulus detailed that it was contacted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") that its new drug to treat it chronic hepatitis C virus infection which was under FDA review, will now be put under clinical hold following a second intense case of jaundice.

On January 27, 2017, post-market, Regulus revealed that the FDA would not reconsider the clinical hold on RG-101 until the agency had received the last safety and efficacy data from continued clinical and pre-clinical studies. Regulus informed shareholders that it expects the required data to be available in the fourth quarter of 2017.

When this information was revealed to the investing public, the value of Regulus declined, causing investors severe harm.
