Context
Strategic posture
The MDL is in pretrial, with general-causation discovery ongoing. Plaintiffs allege long-term use of Depo-Provera (depot medroxyprogesterone acetate) causes intracranial meningioma and that defendants failed to warn.
The Rule 702 (Daubert) hearing on general causation is the gating event — its outcome will materially determine the trajectory of the entire MDL.
Defendants: Pfizer, Pharmacia & Upjohn, Pharmacia LLC, Greenstone LLC, Viatris Inc., Prasco LLC.
