I doubt a lawsuit, but if it gets to Nintendo they may request they change the name if possible. It's not like they're using the word Pokemon to market something, it's now a semi-medical term.
I can see Nintendo wishing to change the name. Having one of their mot successful franchises linked (albeit indirectly) to cancer isn't exactly great for marketing.
