Biosimilars - Evolution or Revolution?

A detailed guide to the factors that will shape this vital market, including company strategies, comparability, regulation, the implications for clinical trials and legal issues. With a chapter written by PricewaterhouseCoopers looking at the commercial implications for the biotech and pharmaceutical markets

The market for biotech drugs grew by 18% last year and now exceeds $50 billion – that’s 10% of the global pharmaceutical market at nearly three times the growth rate.

But the first biotech drugs were launched in the mid 1980s and now patents have expired on drugs worth more than $13 billion. Until very recently generic competition was not possible but now in Europe, the EMEA has issued guidelines and the first biosimilar has been approved. In the USA the FDA still has to act, but the direction is becoming clearer. How this market develops will be vital for all the players involved – major pharma, biotechs, generic companies and CROs.
