Sanofi to appeal Delaware court's decision on Zantac litigation; approximately 25,000 cases naming Sanofi among 75,000 filed in Delaware.

Sanofi update on Zantac litigation

Paris, May 31, 2024. Sanofi is disappointed with the State of Delaware court’s decision and intends to appeal. There is no reliable scientific evidence that Zantac can cause cancer, just as was held in 2022 by a US federal court in the State of Florida overseeing federal cases in a multidistrict litigation proceeding. Prior to the Delaware court’s decision, approximately 75,000 individuals had filed cases in Delaware. Of those filed cases, approximately 25,000 named Sanofi, and almost all of those cases named additional defendants. Sanofi believes that none of these cases should proceed to trial. Sanofi remains committed to its defense and to the safety of Zantac and will continue to vigorously defend itself against these claims, which the medical, scientific, and regulatory communities have extensively evaluated and have found to be without merit.
