Remicade Biosimilars Market Set to Witness Steady Growth through (2018-2026)
Biosimilar
refers to biotherapeutic product that is similar in terms of
quality, efficacy, and safety to an existing licensed reference
therapeutic drug. Biological products are the fastest growing class
of therapeutic products, as they offer additional treatment options
and help in lowering healthcare costs. Biosimilars are almost
identical copies of the originally approved drugs and can be
manufactured only when the patent for the original innovator drug
expires.
These products are highly sensitive to smallest changes in
manufacturing procedure, as these drugs possess high molecular
complexity. Remicade (Infliximab) refers to a chimeric monoclonal
antibody biologic licensed by U.S. FDA in 1998, as an innovative
product indicated for the treatment of Crohn’s disease in adults
and children. The monoclonal antibody drug was first developed in
partnership by Janssen Biotech, Inc. and Merck & Co. The Remicade
was later approved for its use in the treatment of ulcerative
colitis, plague psoriasis, rheumatic arthritis, and spinal psoriatic
arthritis in combination with methotrexate. Later, various
pharmaceutical manufacturers developed biosimilars to infliximab,
which lowered market share of Remicade due to cost-effective prices.
On
the basis of region, the global Remicade biosimilar market is
segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific,
Middle East, and Africa. Europe holds a dominant position in the
global Remicade biosimilar market and is expected to retain its
dominance over the forecast period, owing to the presence of top
market players in the region, rapid entry of biosimilars in the
European market as well as high adoption rate due low price of the
biosimilars. For instance, in 2018, Sandoz, a Novartis division
received European Commission (EC) approval for Zessly (infliximab) a
remicade biosimilar for use in Europe. The successive research and
speedy approvals by the U.S. regulatory authorities for market entry
of biosimilars in North America is expected to drive growth of the
market over the forecast period. For instance, in December 2017,
Pfizer, Inc. received the U.S. FDA approval for second biosimilar,
Ifixi to Janssen’s blockbuster drug Remicade to treat rheumatoid
arthritis.
Furthermore,
Asia Pacific is expected to witness significant growth in the market
over the forecast period, owing to developments in healthcare
infrastructure and U.S. FDA approval of Remicade (infliximab)
biosimilars by regional players to market the products
internationally. For instance, in April 2016, Celltrion- a South
Korea-based manufacturing company received the U.S. FDA approval for
intravenously administered version of the rheumatoid arthritis drug
sold under the name Infllectra. Moreover, major investments by
regional players for research and development of biosimilar
production is expected to drive growth of the market in Asia. For
instance, in October 2016, Cipla, Inc. invested US$ 8 million to set
up a manufacturing plant for biosimilars in South Africa.
Key
players operating in the global remicade biosimilar market include
Janssen Biotech, Inc., Merck and Company, Inc., Alvogen, Pfizer,
Inc., Celltrion, Nippon Kayaku, Napp Pharmaceuticals, and others.
