BDP Week Featured Sessions: Analytical Characterization and Biosimilarity Assessment

With the recent introduction of regulatory pathways for follow-on versions of complex biologics, the role of analytical technologies in comparing biosimilars with the corresponding reference product is attracting substantial interest in establishing the development requirements for biosimilars. This session will present strategies and techniques for developing product characteristics and comparability studies to meet the regulators’ requirements.

This year, during the Molecules portion of the Biopharmaceutical Development and Production Week taking place February 27-March 1, 2013, we have several speakers who will come together and look at this topic in-depth:
  • Late Stage Analytical Development of Biosimilars and the “Totality of Evidence” Concept
    • Hans-Martin Mueller, Ph.D., Associate Director, BioProcess Development, Merck & Co.
  • Paradigms for Biotech/Biosimilar Product Characterization and Comparability
    • Nadine M. Ritter, Ph.D., Senior Analytical Consultant, Biologics Consulting Group, Inc.
  • Freedom-To-Operate Issues in Cell Line Development
    • George C. Yu, MSc., J.D., Counsel, Schiff Hardin LLP.

Call for global approach to developing biosimilars

The European Generics Industry is calling for a world wide standard to develop biosimilars. Leaders believe standards need to be set for the industry world wide in order to create a consistent, scientific global approach in order to fully reach the potential that biosimilars can have world wide.

Greg Perry, director general of the European Generic Medicines Association (EGA), stated, "If healthcare systems are to continue to function long-term, we must address the importance of biosimilar monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) next. Science for MAbs is already here today and our industry is expecting a workable guideline."

Do you think a global, united front on biosimilars will aid the development of them? What could be the benefits of the scientists of the world having the same standards for developing biosimilars?
