Symposium: Treating Inflammatory Conditions With Biosimilars
A September 29, 2020, symposium with Sonia T. Oskouei, PharmD, BCMAS, DPLA, of Cardinal Health will explore how to incorporate biosimilars into the treatment of inflammatory conditions.
Anti—tumor necrosis factor biosimilars for the treatment of inflammatory disease present attractive cost savings for both payers and patients. A free, continuing education broadcast on September 29, 2020, at 8 p.m. will address the identification of patients most likely to benefit from biosimilars for inflammatory conditions, review current clinical evidence and real-world data on the use of these agents, and demonstrate how to develop evidence-based protocols for reducing expenditures and improving access to these treatments. This program is for managed care pharmacists and other interested clinicians and will be presented by Sonia T. Oskouei, PharmD, BCMAS, DPLA, vice president of Biosimilars for Cardinal Health.
