Statement: Zantac (ranitidine) litigation
GSK plc (LSE/NYSE: GSK) today confirmed it has reached a
confidential settlement in the Cantlay/Harper case filed in
California state court. The case, which was set to begin trial on
13 November 2023, will be dismissed. The company has also settled
the three remaining breast cancer bellwether cases in California.
GSK will be dismissed from these cases, removing all related
pre-trial hearings for the company.
The settlements reflect the Company's desire to avoid the
distraction related to protracted litigation. GSK does not admit
any liability in the settlements and will continue to vigorously
defend itself based on the facts and the science in all other
Zantac cases.
