The firm has been accepting the cases since July 2011 and has seen a number of inquiries into the litigation. The diabetes drug Actos may be linked to Bladder Cancer. While the FDA's highest warning appears on Actos for its heart attack risk, no such warning appears for Bladder Cancer.

With over 2 million people prescribed Actos, the law firm of Rudolph F.X. Migliore, P.C. has seen a number of inquiries related to Actos litigation. Actos is used to regulate the level of glucose in the bloodstream in patients with type 2 diabetes. Diabetes is a prevalent disease in the United States and Actos use has steadily increased, especially after a similar prescription drug, Avandia, was pulled off the market because it was linked to an increased risk for heart attacks. The relationship of Actos to bladder cancer has only recently been examined and consequences are being monitored by the FDA. In August 2011, the FDA approved updated labeling for Actos stating that taking the drug "for more than one year may be associated with an increased risk of bladder cancer". The FDA has been conducting an ongoing review of the connection between Actos (pioglitazone) and Bladder Cancer based on studies conducted over the last 10 years by the drugs' manufacturers, as well as studies done in Europe which suggested an increased risk from using Actos (pioglitazone) and developing Bladder Cancer.
