JPML Grants Dupixent MDL and Transfers Cases to New Jersey
What happened: The Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation granted
centralization for federal Dupixent cases involving alleged CTCL and related claims.
The coordinated proceedings are now MDL No. 3180, In re: Dupixent (Dupilumab) Products
Liability Litigation, in the District of New Jersey.
Why it matters: Related federal cases will proceed together for
coordinated pretrial work, including discovery, motions, expert issues, and other
case-management steps. The order states that possible future expansion beyond CTCL
cases can be addressed through the conditional transfer process.
The transfer order does not decide whether Dupixent caused CTCL or any related T-cell
lymphoma, whether defendants are liable, or whether any individual claim will succeed.
Individual review still depends on diagnosis, Dupixent use history, timing, medical
records, state-law deadlines, and representation status.

May 28, 2026 — JPML Hearing Scheduled
What is happening: The Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation has
scheduled oral arguments in MDL No. 3180, In re Dupixent (Dupilumab) Products Liability
Litigation, for its May 28, 2026 hearing session in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
What this means for patients: At a JPML hearing session, the Panel
may consider whether related federal Dupixent CTCL cases should be transferred to one
district court for coordinated pretrial proceedings.
The hearing does not decide causation, liability, or whether any individual claim
should move forward. Patients considering review may want to preserve diagnosis, biopsy,
dermatology, oncology, and prescription records.
Why it matters for people considering a case review: An MDL ruling is
a litigation milestone, not a decision on the merits of any individual claim. People
considering whether their Dupixent history warrants review do not need to wait for an
MDL ruling to submit basic information.

What happened: The JPML filed a Notice of Hearing Session and Hearing
Session Order scheduling MDL No. 3180, In re Dupixent (Dupilumab) Products Liability
Litigation, for the May 28, 2026 hearing session in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Why it matters: A JPML hearing session is part of the process for
considering whether related federal actions should be centralized for coordinated pretrial
proceedings. Scheduling a hearing does not decide whether centralization will be granted
and does not decide the merits of any individual claim.
