NEW YORK, Aug. 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Tripp Levy PLLC, a leading national securities law firm, announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Northwest Biotherapeutics, Inc. ("Northwest Biotherapeutics" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: NWBO) and certain of its officers. The class action, filed in United States District Court, District of Maryland, Greenbelt Division, and docketed under 8:15-cv-02532, is on behalf of a class consisting of all persons or entities who purchased Northwest Biotherapeutics securities between March 8, 2013 and August 20, 2015 inclusive (the "Class Period").

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company's business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) the Company's claims regarding positive results from its DCVax-Direct Trial were based on preliminary and unconfirmed trial results; (ii) the DCVax-Direct Trial results on which the Company reported had not been reviewed or analyzed by the hospitals conducting the trials; (iii) the Company's statements about DCVax-Direct were derived from patient case report forms, which the hospitals were obliged to send to the Company only because it sponsored the study; (iv) the Company was the subject of an aggressive stock promotion campaign which included promoters using fictitious identities and false credentials; (v) German regulators required additional information from the Company in order for the Company's DCVax-L Trial to continue uninterrupted; and (vi) as a result of the above, the Company's financial statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
