Eddie Driscoll, an actor best known for his roles on Mad Men, Entourage and Sex and the City, has died. He was 60.

Driscoll’s death was confirmed by fellow actor Jimmy Palumbo, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

He died in Los Angeles on Dec. 15 after a months-long battle with stomach cancer, per Palumbo. He suffered a saddle pulmonary embolism, which Yale Medicine notes is “a life-threatening condition characterized by a large blood clot that lodges at the bifurcation of the pulmonary artery, obstructing blood flow to both lungs.”

PEOPLE has reached out to Palumbo for comment.
