11^th European Biosimilars Congress

The purpose of this presentation is to identify and present a cost-effective method and devices to self-administration of biosimilar drugs and molecules while keeping the entire process safe and easy to use. Disposable auto-injectors have their advantages of safe and simplicity but pose an additional cost of materials to a bio-similar drug/molecule. Reusable auto injectors are more cost effective, but the ones in the market are complicated, are not easy to use and not completely safe. In this presentation we will present a new, innovative, method for easy and safe yet cost-effective way for self administration of biosimilar drugs/ molecules. These innovative devices might be a perfect partner with the biosimilar drug as they are not only cost effective, safe and easy to use, but also have a lower environmental impact of plastic parts and trash. We will discuss mechanical auto-injectors and electronic auto-injectors while in both the only disposable part is the cassette that holds the PFS (Progression-free survival) with the drug inside.
