Track 1: Current Challenges in Developing Biosimilars

The development of biologics calls for overcoming lot many challenges. With initial steps of concepts of biologics, their considerations, essentials for early clinical developments it is very much needed that proper scientific and strategic approaches are taken for the successful development of follow-on-biologics. Moreover, the need for overcoming the challenges continues in the late clinical steps, drug safety factors and labelling requirements. Also it is much required now to develop a drug product in accordance to quality by design (QbD).This Eurobiosimilars conference will look at the multiple facets of current challenges in Biosimilars development. This biosimilars conference will focus on multiple aspects of biosimilars product development to successfully deliver safe, potential and efficacious biologic products to the market.

Track 2: Chemical and Analytical Strategies for Biosimilars

Management of cGMP facility calls for a strict monitoring all factors including analytical strategies, formulation procedures, packaging etc. For biologic products establishing comparability and interchangeability is a big hurdle. For this purpose employment of suitable analytical approach, bioassay, protein analysis, potency testing, safety assurances are highly important. LC/MS analysis for biologic products, characterization of biologics, peptide mapping, Isoelectric Focusing and Capillary Isoelectric Focusing, SDS-PAGE, Thermal Analysis, Particulate Matter Analysis, Thermogravimetric Analysis are some methods commonly used for analysis of biologics and Biosimilars products. On average, facilities outsource 32% of their analytical testing/bioassays (up from 28%) meaning that close to one-third of analytical testing is estimated to be outsourced by the industry.

Track 3: Intellectual Property Rights

The safeguarding of product trade secret, its formulations and other process parameters by law is usually covered by IPR. It includes those as patents, copyrights, industrial design rights, trademarks etc. IPR is of prime importance in the field of biologics and biosimilars. Most scientist and industries tend to retain their monopoly business by exercising the IPR. The very name Biosimilars calls for the occurrence of Intellectual Property rights laws and by-laws. Hence this session is of utmost interest to the attorneys and law personnel. Currently, the US provides 12 years of exclusivity for new biological products under the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act (BPCIA).The provision providing 12 years exclusivity was buried inside the 20,000-page healthcare law. Eight years of exclusivity would keep biologic medicines out of the hands of many who need them. Prices frequently exceed $100,000.

Track 4: Biological Medicine

Biological Medicine works with the biology of the body and its natural healing capabilities as well as the spiritual, emotional and physical aspects of disease. Disease means that the body’s regulation is not working properly and needs to be brought back into its natural dynamic state where the immune system is in full regulation.  It therefore looks for root causes for the presenting symptoms of disease the underlying factors causing a person to present with a certain illness.  These root causes may consist of several factors which have built up over time and can include; diet, food allergies, intestinal disturbances, family history, stress, environmental factors, heavy metals, dental problems, hyperacidity, trauma, exposure to bacteria or viruses or electromagnetic disturbances.

Track 6: Innovative Clinical Approach in Biosimilars

Clinical trials for biosimilars must exhibit practically identical security what's more, viability to the reference item, including consecutive PK/ PD and viability/security trials. Controllers expect PK/PD similarity information from a Phase I trial will bolster encourage viability/ wellbeing evaluations in crucial Phase III trials. Remain solitary Phase III investigations or joined Phase I/III outlines without supporting PK information are probably not going to be acknowledged. Clinical similarity prerequisites may fluctuate on a case-by-case premise subject to a risk based approach. Three-arm Phase I trials are progressively being used to show equivalence between the biosimilars and two authorized adaptations of a similar reference item that may exist in various markets, allowing developers to proceed with pivotal trials using a single version of the reference product

Track 7: Regulatory updates on Biosimilars

Competitions and/or success in the present pharma industry are determined by the winning patent strategy which mostly pertains to the generic market entry. Generic and branded drug manufacturers both the patent strategy proximally belongs to the Hatch-Waxman Act statutory scheme and ANDA litigations. The Hatch-Waxman Act enacted in 1984 with amendment in 2003 facilitated the entry of generics at an early stage-thereby finishing the battle of branded generic ANDA of blockbuster drugs. All the same the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation(BPCI) Act has maximized the branded-generic patent duel in the biologics realm by imposing a litigated framework on follow-on-biologics.

An FDA analysis of drug prices from 1999 to 2004 found that the discount from generic competition was just 6% with one generic competitor, but jumps to 48% with two generic competitors, 56% with three, 61% with four and 67% with five generic producers in a market. Within 2 years of the expiration of the patent of the popular drug Zantac in 1997, generics of Zantac accounted 90% of the treatment’s total sales, and the price for patients was about 10% of its pre-generic price. European patents on biologic treatments began to expire in 2000, and in April 2006, Sandoz and Biopartners successfully received EMEA approval for the first European biogenerics, two products containing human growth hormone.

Track 8: Biosimilars Development in Markets

A Biosimilars bio therapeutic item is comparative (but not identical) as far as quality, wellbeing, and viability to an effectively authorized reference item. Not at all like nonspecific little particles, it’s hard to institutionalize such naturally complex items in light of convoluted assembling forms. The worldwide biosimilars advertise is developing quickly as licenses on blockbuster biologic medications terminate and other medicinal services parts centre on lessening of expenses. Biologics are among the most elevated cost medicines on the worldwide market today, which suggests the requirement for minimal effort choices. In developing markets, biosimilars officially offer more moderate costs, which are alluring, as well as crucial to economies where costly medications are not monetarily achievable

Track 9: Biosimilars Approval to Biogenerics in Clinical Practice

Biological medicines are much more structurally complex and extremely sensitive to manufacturing conditions and therefore more difficult to characterize and produce than small molecule drugs. Even minor changes in manufacturing may lead to significant variations of the cellular systems used for biological production, as well as to differences in the structure, stability, or other quality aspects of the end product, all of which have the potential to affect tolerability and/or efficacy and increase the risk of immune responses. Owing to these issues, specific regulatory guidance on biosimilars is continuously evolving, and there is some disagreement on which studies need to be implemented to approve a biosimilars. According to current literature, the following points on biosimilars deserve consideration: Biosimilars development is characterized by global harmonization, although several not fully answered questions remain regarding extrapolation of indications, switching or interchange ability, and tolerability; in patients with rheumatic diseases, the tolerability and efficacy of biosimilars in clinical practice remain to be established; several medical and patient associations have published position papers on biosimilars requesting that safety, efficacy, and traceability be carefully considered; long-term post marketing studies should be implemented to allow physicians to gain confidence in biosimilars.

Track 11: Consequences of Brexit on Biosimilars

With Europe that paved way to the uptake of biosimilars over a decade ago, the consequences of Brexit would be potentially harder on UK. Presently UK is no more bound to follow the guidelines of EMA. Also research grants from Innovative Medicines Initiative and Horizon 2020 would no more be available to UK. All the same, EMA has its headquarters in London, UK. The thus arising complications would definitely have certain consequences on the Biosimilars scenario in UK and EU.

Track 12: BCS and IVIVC Based Biowaivers

The objective of this work was to suggest the biowaivers potential of biopharmaceutical classification system which are known to increase the solubility, dissolution, oral absorption of water insoluble drugs. BiopharmaceuticsClassification System and invitro and invivo classification discusses about ADME pathways of different drugs. This also includes BCS biowaivers, In vitro diffusion cells for dissolution testing in formulation development, In vitro preclinical ADME/BCS testing. Until in vitro and in vivo correlation achieves the required degree, the biosimilars drug will not be able to meet the needs of the original drug candidate. Hence the proportion of BCS and IVIVC based biowaivers are fairly low ~0.5-1% of total pharmaceutical products.

Track 13: Biosimilars Market and Cost Analysis

The global biosimilars market is growing at an exponential rate. The CAGR from 2015 to 2020 is projected at over 22%. The biosimilars market is expected to be around $6.2 billion by 2020 from only $2.3 billion in 2015. By the end of this decade the biosimilars would surely occupy 27% of the total pharmaceutical market. Moreover, with the global rise in concern for more accessible-improved- cost effective healthcare, biosimilar drugs would be a more apt choice to the payers, end users, manufacturers over the costly reference biologics. Originator biologics are as costly as about $100,000 per year per patient. Biosimilars on the contrary can be offered at a 30-40% lower price than that of the reference product. However, with all the success stories and opportunities there also lies a sobering 50% failure rate in developing and obtaining license towards marketing of biosimilars.  The biosimilars market is categorized into mainly four zones – North America(USA and Canada); Europe(UK, Germany, Spain, Italy, France and Rest of Europe); Aisa-Pacific( China, India, Japan, South Korea) and rest of the world ( LATAM and MENA). Key players of the biosimilars market include Amgen, Hospira, Teva, Sandoz International GmbH, Dr. Reddy’s Laboratory, Biocon, Roche, Celltrion, Catalent, Mylan and Merck. There are also certain other companies which are gaining importance in biosimilar de​velopment like LeanBio Pro-Spain, PPD-USA, SGS Life Sciences-UK, Therapeutic Proteins International-USA. The biosimilars development is mainly concentrated in the therapeutic domains of oncology, blood disorders, autoimmune disorders, endocrine disorders and infectious diseases

Track 14: Challenges in Biosimilars Pharmacovigilance

This session of the Biosimilars 2018 will look into the future and FDA initiatives that have already been announced to include enhanced tracking and follow-up of post marketing surveillance issues, planned improvements in AERS, and pilots of new post market drug-monitoring strategies and ADR related issues. Biosimilar guidelines for pharmacovigilance practice and pharmacoepidemiology are the points that shall be laid emphasis in this session. U.S. average annual spending growth from 2002 to 2007 was 16% for biologics, compared with 3.7% for drugs. In same proportion pharmacovigilance for biosimilars has been comparatively more than other pharmaceutical products.

Track 15: Legal Issues and BPCI Act

The legal issues pertaining to the follow-on-biologics and biosimilars are one of the most aspects that requires an open discussion. Before the actual advent of biosimilars to the market legal issues have risen in numbers in their developmental stages. Renowned organizations have filed cases against each other two claim their rights and for other legal allegations related to the products. This track is dedicated to discussion of all such cases which has been argued in the court of law.

By 2002, the FDA had approved 36 new biologics, followed by 37 more in 2003, another 40 in 2004 and 39 more in 2005. By 2006, the leading category of biologic treatment, the red blood cell enhancer recombinant erythropoietin (EPO), generated $14 billion in sales revenues, or 40 percent more than the best-selling traditional pharmaceutical, Lipitor. More than 300 therapeutic antibodies currently are in clinical development and trials, compared to just 13 that already are widely available due to legal issues.

Track 16: Formulation Strategies for Follow-on Biologics

For this rapidly growing industry sector, little consensus or authoritative information is available yet regarding how and where biosimilar products will be produced. The future of their manufacturing is still up in the air. Much discussion among experts has focused on a dramatic up-tick in Contract Manufacturing Organizations (CMOs) involvement with process development projects and clinical-scale manufacturing for biosimilars. None have really set up commercial-scale projects (yet), however. Many such companies are publicly discussing large-scale partnerships for production in India and elsewhere in Asia. On the other hand, some biosimilars sponsors are establishing relationships with smaller biotech CMOs that have demonstrated expertise in efficiency or lower-cost business models.

Track 17: Current Agency Expectations for Approval for Biosimilars

Biosimilars are a relatively new subset of biopharmaceuticals, with the biotechnology industry finally maturing such that off-patent generic-type products increasingly will be entering major markets. So far, more than 20 biosimilars for a limited number of reference products have been approved in major markets, primarily the European Union. Only two products have been formally approved as biosimilars in the United States. The parent field of biopharmaceuticals itself continues to exhibit a poor supporting infrastructure of information resources. Those biopharmaceutical and biosimilar information resources that do exist generally are limited in number, diversity, and sophistication.

Track 18: Biosimilars Research Pipeline

Biosimilars is a biologic medical product which is copy of an original product that is manufactured by a different company. Biosimilars are officially approved "innovative" versions of original products, and can be manufactured when the original product's patent expires. Reference to the innovator product is an integral component of the approval. This session also finds place for all the biosimilars exhibitors associated with the field of biosimilars and biologics. Biosimilars innovative products are on the rise. The number of new drugs seeking approvals is growing at a compounded rate of around 5% half early. Almost 1.5 times the number of biosimilars is expected to be in the market in 2016 compared to in the last 5 years.

Track 19: Globalization of Biosimilars

This track discuses about the generic drugs impact on global biosimilars market , Cost and risk management, Adopting innovative mechanisms such as risk-sharing arrangement, European market for biosimilars. The global market scenario with the launch of first biosimilars in the market forecasts some radical changes. This track will look upon such key concerns which are witnessed by the global pharma market and that are coming up with the subsequent launch of the other biosimilars and biologics. Despite these emerging facilities, biotherapeuticdevelopers are most comfortable off-shoring to established markets—the US and Europe.

Track 20: Drug Delivery and Development

Drug Delivery Companies and Market session is beginning to change for small, medium, and large scale pharmaceutical Co, biopharmaceutical Manufacturing and Industries, generic drugs companies, contract drug delivery companies which can manifest from development to manufacturing. Addressing these instabilities is a great challenge, because of the complexity of the Clinical bio therapeutics themselves.

Track 21: Monoclonal Antibody Biosimilars

The first mAb biosimilars to be approved in Europe and elsewhere was the infliximab biosimilars (Inflectra and Remsima), which originator is Remicade. In October 2013, after the European Medicines Agency (EMA) gave a positive opinion for infliximab biosimilars, the European Commission granted a marketing authorization (MA) for these two biosimilars in the various therapeutic indications that are authorized for Remicade (i.e. indications in gastroenterology, rheumatology, and dermatology). As for previously approved biosimilars, the two aforementioned European institutions did not make a stand on the issues of substitution, and with good reason, as answering these questions does not fall within their areas of expertise and is the sole responsibility of EU Member States

Track 22: USFDA Approved Biosimilars

In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) held that new legislation was required to enable them to approve Biosimilars to those biologics originally approved through the PHS Act pathway. Since 2004 the FDA has held a series of public meetings on Biosimilars. The FDA has previously approved biologic products using comparability, for example, Omnitrope in May 2006, but this like Enoxaparin was also to a reference product, Genotropin originally approved as a biologic drug under the FD&C Act.

Importance & Scope:

The European-based pharmaceutical industry makes a major contribution to the Europe, not just in financial terms but also in terms of high-trait employment. Globally Pharma Market ranges from $870-$900 billion and in Europe $260-$280 billion.

A global biosimilars strategy:

Developed markets: Developed markets, with the exception of the United States, represent the greatest biosimilars presence today. Most biosimilars manufacturers have been and remain focused on the developed markets – whether it is for their historic and current opportunities (EU) or for their future market potential (United States, Japan). Dedicated regulatory pathways set the foundation for stringent, abbreviated approval processes which, in turn, have fed investor enthusiasm. Biosimilars adoption in developed markets has been primarily payer-driven, especially in European markets, given payers’ urgent, unmet need to contain public health care expenditures. Further market uptake has been slowed by prescribers’ skepticism and low patient awareness. Still, developed markets continue to have the highest number of biosimilars molecules in development – estimated at 29 in Europe, 19 in the United States and seven in Japan.

Emerging markets: In today’s emerging markets, biosimilars are still nascent, with little to no presence. However, in contrasting emerging markets with developed markets, the limited patient access to affordable biologics and the openness of physicians to low-cost therapies may offer potentially significant opportunities. Today, emerging markets represent a snippet of total world biologic sales in value, less than seven to eight percent (versus 48.6 percent in the United States).ix Treatment rates for flagship biologics are still low compared to developed markets, despite existing demand. For example, the treatment rate of MabThera® in Brazil is three times lower than in the UK and six times lower than in the US.x Additionally, a recent Kantor Health Survey found that 20 percent of emerging market autoimmune patients use a biologic, with the distribution of biologics varying from 29 percent in China to 12 percent in Russia and a mere 6 percent in Brazil.xi This may indicate the presence of large pockets of non-consumption, especially within the growing middle class.

  • Represents about 50% of the global biologics market value and generates about 50% of the sales value growth
  • Pending legislative decisions on data exclusivity period, naming conventions and interchangeability likely to have important implications.

Biosimilars approved in the US

In the US, a legal framework for approving biosimilars was established in 2009, via the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act of 2009 (BPCI Act).

The BPCI Act is part of the healthcare reform legislation, which was signed into law on 23 March 2010 by President Barack Obama. The BPCI Act establishes an abbreviated approval pathway for biological products that are demonstrated to be ‘highly similar’ (biosimilar) to, or ‘interchangeable’ with, a US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-licensed biological product.

FDA is still in the process of developing guidelines regarding these types of products and has issued several guidance documents on the subject.

Zarxio (filgrastim-sndz) was the first product approved in the US as a biosimilar in 2015. To date, FDA has approved four biosimilars within the product classes of anti-tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and a follow-on biological in the product class of insulin for use in the US.

EU5

  • Most mature biosimilar market representing 80% of global biosimilar spending
  • Performance to date viewed as “disappointing” by select manufacturers
  • Nineteen biosimilar products authorized in four molecule classes: human growth hormone, erythropoietin, G-CSF and tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-inhibitor
  • About 29 pipeline biosimilars molecules in development.
  • World-class dedicated pathway leaving questions of substitutability at the pharmacy level to member states
  • Payer-driven uptake
  • Challenged by continued pressure from strict regulatory decisions, lingering fear from prescribers around biosimilars’ “similarity”, safety and efficacy, debates on automatic substitution and INN prescription.

Biosimilars approved in Europe

In the European Union (EU), a legal framework for approving biosimilars was established in 2003. This framework means that biosimilars can only be approved centrally via the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and not nationally.

EMA first developed guidelines for the approval of biosimilars via an abbreviated registration process during 2005 to 2006, and since then EMA has developed many general and specific guidelines for biosimilars .

Omnitrope (somatropin) was the first product approved in the EU as a biosimilar in 2006. To date, EMA has approved 38 biosimilars within the product classes of human growth hormone, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, erythropoesis stimulating agent, insulin, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), parathyroid hormone and tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-inhibitor, for use in the EU. Three biosimilar approvals have been withdrawn; two for filgrastim biosimilars: Filgrastim ratiopharm in April 2011 and Biograstim in December 2016, and one for a somatropin biosimilar (Valtropin) in May 2012. This leaves a total of 35 biosimilars approved for use in Europe.
