Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C. Is Investigating Chinook, Comerica, Advance Auto Parts, and EPAM and Encourages Investors to Contact the Firm

NEW YORK, July 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C., a nationally recognized shareholder rights law firm, is investigating potential claims against Chinook Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: KDNY), Comerica Incorporated (NYSE: CMA), Advance Auto Parts, Inc. (NYSE: AAP), and EPAM Systems, Inc. (NYSE: EPAM). Our investigations concern whether these companies have violated the federal securities laws and/or engaged in other unlawful business practices. Additional information about each case can be found at the link provided.

Chinook Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: KDNY)

The investigation focuses on whether the Company issued false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose information pertinent to investors. Chinook is the subject of a report issued by Muddy Waters Research on May 16, 2023. According to the report, the Company’s lead product candidate “has been shown to be harmful to patients’ cardiovascular health”, and that “AbbVie and Chinook seem to have systemically manipulated research findings and presentation on atrasentan to obscure these trial results.”
