NEW YORK, Nov. 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential securities fraud at Keryx Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Keryx" or the "Company") (NasdaqCM: KERX).

The investigation focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws with respect to its disclosures concerning perifosine, an experimental drug that Keryx had been co-developing to treat those suffering from colorectal cancer.

On April 2, 2012, Keryx announced the top-line data from the Perifosine X-PECT Phase 3 Clinical Trial. The Company revealed that the trial for refractory advanced colorectal cancer did not meet the primary endpoint of improving overall patient survival versus capecitabine and a placebo. On this disappointing news, Keryx share price plummeted from $4.98 on March 30, 2012 to $1.74 on April 2, 2012 – a decline of roughly 65 percent.

You not only get the headline, but also the body of text of the news release, keeping the user on your site at all times. In order to do so, the difference between our Widget and other widgets is at the end of the sign-up process, you will be provided with two pieces of source code -- one for the page where the Widget itself will be displayed and one for the pages that will display the body of text of each news release. In addition, the sign-up process allows you to have 100 percent control over every aspect of the Widget's appearance, so that the Widget can blend in fully with the look and feel of your site.
