Background of the investigation
On December 31, 2025, Corcept disclosed that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) issued a Complete Response Letter (“CRL”) regarding the Company’s new drug application for relacorilant. Following this disclosure, Corcept’s share price declined approximately 50%.
On January 30, 2026, the market reacted to a corrected CRL that was widely disseminated, which stated that prior to submission of the application, the FDA had informed Corcept on several occasions of concerns regarding the adequacy of the clinical development program and that the Company should expect significant review issues if it submitted the application. Following this disclosure, Corcept’s share price declined again by double digits.
In light of this disclosure, Johnson Fistel is investigating whether Corcept complied with the federal securities laws. If you suffered losses from your investment in Corcept stock, contact Johnson Fistel.
