What Is Dupixent?
Dupixent (dupilumab) is an injectable biologic drug approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) to treat conditions such as:
- Moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (eczema)
- Certain types of asthma
- Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps
- Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE)
While Dupixent has helped many patients, emerging research and regulatory scrutiny raise concern about possible links between Dupixent use and rare cancers, including cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). ([Levin Law][1])
Because CTCL often mimics eczema or other skin conditions in its early stage, the concern is that patients treated with Dupixent for eczema may have had underlying or developing lymphoma masked or accelerated by immunologic changes.
Dupixent Lawsuit Overview
Lawsuits related to Dupixent claim that the drug’s manufacturers:
- Failed to adequately warn doctors and patients about the risk of T-cell lymphoma.
- Marketed Dupixent aggressively despite emerging safety signals.
- Neglected to update the warning label to reflect known cancer risks.
As of 2025, there is no nationwide class action or MDL (multidistrict litigation) established for Dupixent cancer claims, but individual lawsuits are being filed and more are expected.

Alabama Statute of Limitations for Drug Injury Claims

Because statute of limitations laws can be complex and fact-specific, you must act quickly. Delays may permanently bar your right to compensation.

- Obtain your full medical records and pathology reports.
- Document all symptoms and side effects, including dates of usage and diagnosis.

Litigation Updates: Dupixent Lawsuit & Regulatory Timeline
| Date | Event | Significance for Alabama Clients |
|---|---|---|
| June 2018 | Study found that Dupixent use may be linked to increased risk of transient blood eosinophilia. | Early warning of immune system effects; foundational research. |
| April 2024 | A retrospective cohort study reported Dupixent users had ~4.59× higher relative risk of developing CTCL compared to non-users. | Stronger scientific basis for alleging cancer link. |
| Mid-2025 | Firms across the U.S. began filing individual lawsuits alleging CTCL after Dupixent use; as of now no MDL or class action established. | Alabama clients can act now through individual claim. |
| November 2025 | As of November 2025, the FDA has not issued a recall of Dupixent, and the prescribing label does not yet include a cancer-specific warning for CTCL. | Important for causation and “failure to warn” theory. |
Important Notes for Alabama Clients:
- Because the label has not yet carved out a cancer warning, one of the legal theories is that manufacturers should have known and warned earlier.
- The timeline of your diagnosis, prescription use, and when you or your doctor should have discovered the link may affect your claim and statute of limitations.
- Keep detailed records of your Dupixent use (dates, dosage, prescribing physician), treatment of lymphoma/CTCL, and any evidence of delayed diagnosis.
