18^th European Biosimilars Congress

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.
