Here's an excerpt on the looking at that topic:
Various complexities associated with approval of a biosimilar include: i) evidence of integrity and consistency of the manufacturing process, ii) conformance of manufacturing standards to applicable regulations, iii) demonstration of product consistency with appropriate innovator product or comparators using assays that should be relevant and most of all standardized, so that several biosimilars of the same biologic can be comparable, including comparative pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data and the extent of clinical data, and iv) experience with the approved product. (12) Further, issues like post-translation modification and immunogenicity are the key concern related to approval of biosimilar products.13 Scientists are of the opinion that the use of biosimilars is an opportunity for us to use cutting-edge technology to solve health problems and guide clinical processes.
