Johnson & Johnson has agreed to settle a large chunk of lawsuits over its diabetes drug Invokana.

In an Oct. 16 motion, Michael London, of New York-based Douglas & London, who is co-lead plaintiffs' counsel in the multidistrict litigation in New Jersey, asked the court to set up a qualified settlement fund of a “confidential settlement amount” to resolve his inventory of cases.

The defendants, Johnson & Johnson and its subsidiary, Janssen Pharmaceuticals Inc., “have entered into confidential master settlement agreements to resolve the actions, disputes and claims of certain claimants represented by D&L relating to diabetic ketoacidosis, acute kidney injury and amputation injuries and losses allegedly suffered by those claimants in connection with Invokana/Invokamet.”
