Post-conference workshop - Fri 26 Feb 2010
 

Development and commercialization framework for biosimilars


Objectives:
Biologics have outperformed the pharmaceutical market as since they address areas of clinical need that are unmanageable with conventional therapeutics and they command a premium price.  Consequently one would expect biosimilars to be commercially attractive.  However, we have seen very few companies enter this field and for those who have they have been limited to the “easier” products to launch.  This workshop will examine the challenges to be addressed and identify strategies to enter this potentially lucrative market building on the themes of the conference.
