Hi, I’m Christina Mattina for The Center for Biosimilars®, your resource for clinical, regulatory, business, and policy news in the rapidly changing world of biosimilars.
Here are the top 5 biosimilars articles for the week of December 16, 2019.
Number 5 The United States is proceeding with a notice of proposed rulemaking to allow states to submit proposals for importing medicine from Canada.
Number 4: Ahead of Trazimera’s launch, researchers reported long-term safety and overall survival data for the Herceptin biosimilar in patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.
Number 3: The pan-Canadian Pharmaceutical Alliance engaged the Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technologies in Health to lead a multiphase stakeholder consultation process to encourage biosimilar uptake.
Number 2: Results of a phase 3 study Lupin’s etanercept biosimilar in patients with rheumatoid arthritis revealed that the biosimilar has lower immunogenicity than the reference drug.
Number 1: The European Medicines Agency's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use has issued a positive opinion for Pfizer’s biosimilar adalimumab referencing Humira.
