A securities litigation firm is investigating Madrigal after the quarterly report on November 3, 2026 revealed a whistleblower complaint, filed October 9, 2026, alleging suppression of adverse liver-injury data and unreproducible efficacy data for Rezdiffra, the company's only approved drug. The stock already fell over 8% on that disclosure, and a formal investigation plus potential class action adds further downside and uncertainty.
