FDA Approves Amgen And Allergan’s Kanjinti Trastuzumab Biosimilar

As the US biosimilars market moves into its second decade, urgent changes are needed at the FDA if biosimilars are to meet their full potential, according to Biosimilars Forum chief executive Julie Reed.

With a lineup of five high-value biosimilars in the wings, Biocon Biologics may be more selective going forward and plans to take a one product per year approach.

Donald Trump’s executive order on most-favored-nation prescription drug pricing could provide positive opportunities for the off-patent industry, although US generics and biosimilars association the AAM suggested that the administration might do more good by focusing elsewhere.

Amneal has set itself apart from competitors who are scrambling to find alternatives if proposed US pharmaceutical tariffs come into place. For the New Jersey-based firm, this is an opportunity to embrace its American identity and open a new chapter of growth.
