Biosimilars: Friend or foe to healthcare?
Our recent article in February’s Pharma Market Europe and our latest Free Thinking white paper looks at the opportunities for biosimilars and the threats to innovator biologics.
Biologics, whose active substance is derived from a living organism, have enabled healthcare to make significant therapeutic advances across a whole raft of therapy areas since their introduction in the 1970s. However, these medicines come at a price, reflecting the complexities involved in developing and manufacturing products derived from living cells. Annual treatment costs in the US can range from US$25,000 to US$200,000. Biosimilars medicines, the follow-on “generics” to biologics which have come off-patent, present a significant opportunity to introduce cutting-edge therapies to the treatment landscape for many diseases, while also addressing the cost-effectiveness demands now being made on global healthcare systems.
