Deadlines vary; a lawyer can confirm yours. An older diagnosis or a past filing window does not, by itself, establish whether you have a claim.
02 · Where cases are heard
Where would my case be heard?
Delaware's importance to Dupixent litigation extends beyond its small patient population to its status as the incorporation state for most major U.S. corporations. Both Sanofi's U.S. entities and Regeneron may have Delaware incorporation connections that establish jurisdiction. The state's approximately 8,000 Dupixent patients are served primarily by Christiana Care Health System in Wilmington and the dermatology and allergy practices in New Castle County. The Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center at Thomas Jefferson University (Philadelphia), just across the Delaware-Pennsylvania border, provides the nearest NCI-designated cancer center for CTCL evaluation.
Delaware has a single federal judicial district — the District of Delaware, headquartered in Wilmington. Delaware is the incorporation state for the majority of U.S. public companies, including many pharmaceutical companies. The District of Delaware has extensive experience with complex corporate litigation, though pharmaceutical mass tort is less common than patent and corporate cases. Delaware does not cap compensatory or punitive damages in product liability cases.
