Biosimilar Drug Development World Europe

 

 

conference programme


Pre-Conference Workshop - Tuesday 26 February 2013


08.30 Registration

 

Biosimilars and Biobetters are considered as a future growth engine of the pharmaceutical industry. The current global market for biologics is more than $ 130 billion. By 2020, more than $ 55 Billion sales of biologics will lose patent protection. The forecast of the global Biosimilars market for 2015 is $ 3.5 - 4.8 billion.


Starting in 2006, Europe has approved biosimilar somatropin, epoetin and filgrastim. Biosimilar versions of three more product classes are currently under review in the EU (MoAb infliximab, FSH and insulin). Based on the experience gained with the first Biosimilars in Europe, the US and the EU are working on both sides on the future scientific and regulatory standards for Biosimilars. FDA has recently laid down the scientific principles and issued its long awaited three draft Biosimilar guidelines. The EU is revising most of its Biosimilar guidelines, has issued the final biosimilar monoclonal antibody guideline, and has currently announced that it intends to accept batches of reference medicines sourced from outside the EU in the future.

 

This workshop will help to develop an expert understanding of the latest regulatory requirements and technical aspects for successful development of Global Quality Biosimilars including CMC, comparability studies, QbD, accelerating development, cell line technologies and manufacturing.

08.30 Registration

Regulatory development and commercialisation framework for biosimilars

 

Objective:
The aim of the workshop is to evaluate the breadth of clinical data requirements within complex biosimilar program, the extent of pharmacovigilance and immunogenicity studies, and what is required from developers to overcome regulatory, development and market access hurdles. Apart from training on how to prepare for successful scientific advice interactions with regulatory authorities, trainees will be familiarised with what is necessary to consider in delivering successful market access, reimbursement and commercialization of complex biosimilars. The emphasis of the workshop will be on regulatory learning from EU, US and, to a lesser extent from emerging market perspectives.
