Hi, I’m Samantha DiGrande 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 August 13.

Number 5: AbbVie has filed suit against biosimilar developer Sandoz over its proposed Humira biosimilar.

Number 4: Fifty-two-week results of a phase 3 study, which included a switch from Humira to SB5, show that switching led to no change in treatment-emergent adverse events.

Number 3: The clinical director of Ireland’s health technology assessment body has called for all new patients to start treatment with biosimilars rather than with reference products.

Number 2: The Federal Trade Commission has called on the FDA to use its authority to foster biosimilar competition.

Number 1: CVS Caremark says that it will use data from the Institute for Clinical and Economic Review in making coverage decisions.

Finally, last week, our e-newsletter asked whether you think that the United States should follow Australia’s lead in using “uptake drivers” for biosimilars.
