Biosimilar medicines, also known as biosimilars, are used in medicine to treat severe and chronic conditions such as cancer, diabetes and autoimmune diseases. Biosimilars – true to their name, they are similar to existing biological reference drugs. They are produced using living organisms or their cells, such as proteins, antibodies and other biological substances. These pharmaceuticals are also produced using biological processes but are not identical to the original reference medicines.
Biosimilars must meet certain criteria to be approved by the relevant regulatory authorities. They must be similar in quality, efficacy and safety to reference medicines.
