Why is there no biosimilar of Erbitux®?
Monoclonal antibody (mAb)-based therapies have been a major advance in oncology patient care, even though they represent a significant healthcare cost. Biosimilars, launched in Europe in 2004 are an economically attractive alternative to expensive originator biological drugs. They also increase the competitiveness of pharmaceutical development.

Biosimilar therapeutic proteins in oncology offer the potential to decrease costs while providing safety and efficacy profiles consistent with their respective reference or originator products. Biosimilars have a number of important differences from generic small-molecule drugs, including manufacturing processes that are unique from their reference ...

Aims Amgevita is a licensed biosimilar to adalimumab, having demonstrated high pharmacokinetic and clinical similarity to Humira. Switching to a lower‐cost medicine may elicit a nocebo effect, whereby expectations of poorer efficacy impact outcomes despite pharmacological similarity. This prospective cohort study examined clinical and economic outcomes

Biological drugs are large, complex glycoprotein molecules produced in living organisms. Revolutionary treatments for many conditions, biologics used in dermatology will face patent expiration, opening opportunities for competitive versions. Biologic drugs are so complex such that it is impossible to reproduce them exactly.

Biosimilars and Regulatory Authorities [PDF]
The patent expirations for many biotechnological medicines have prompted the development of copies of biological medicinal products. Unlike generics, biosimilars are similar but not identical to their reference product, because their chemical characteristics are directly related to the manufacturing process which cannot be precisely duplicated.
