Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | 5. Commitments and Contingencies Litigation Securities Class Action On March 1, 2024, a putative securities class action complaint, captioned Yuksel v. Ventyx Biosciences, Inc., et al., No. 3:24-cv-00415-AGA-DDL, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California against the company and certain of its current and former officers and directors, asserting violations of Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act and Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act. Stemming from the Company’s disclosure on November 6, 2023 of the results of its Phase 2 SERENITY trial of VTX958 and its decision to terminate ongoing activities and clinical trials for the development of VTX958 for the treatment of plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, the complaint alleges that that the defendants issued materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose material adverse facts in connection with its October 21, 2021 initial public offering and in public statements from October 21, 2021 through November 6, 2023 regarding the effectiveness and clinical and commercial prospects of VTX958, the Company’s ability to develop and commercialize product candidates, and its business prospects. On April 30, 2024, a motion for appointment of a lead plaintiff was filed. The lead plaintiff motion remains pending. The Company intends to defend the case vigorously. The Company is unable to estimate a range of loss, if any, that could result were there to be an adverse final decision in this action. If an unfavorable outcome were to occur, it is possible that the impact could be material to the Company’s results of operations in the period(s) in which any such outcome becomes probable and estimable. Additionally, in the ordinary course of its business, the Company may be involved in various legal proceedings involving contractual and employment relationships, patent or other intellectual property rights, and a variety of other matters. The Company is not aware of any pending legal proceedings that would reasonably be expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
