Tripp Levy PLLC, a leading national securities law firm, announces that it is investigating potential securities claims on behalf of investors of Athersys, Inc. (NASDAQ: "ATHX") ("Athersys" or the "Company") resulting from allegations that Athersys may have issued materially misleading business information to the investing public.

On April 17, 2015, Athersys announced that its in-development stem cell treatment failed to beat placebo in a Phase II trial on stroke patients. The Company's treatment, called MultiStem, is meant to reverse the neurological damage caused by strokes. Looking at 90-day interim results, MultiStem failed to chart any significant difference compared to placebo on the primary endpoint, and it failed secondary goals of improvement on two other measures of stroke rehabilitation. As a result of this announcement, the Company's stock has fallen approximately 40% during intraday trading on April 17, 2015.
