Upcoming Patent Expiries for Biologics

The expiration of patents for original biologics marks a significant turning point in the pharmaceutical industry, offering a window of opportunity for the expansion and maturation of the biosimilar and follow-on biologic market. As the exclusive rights to produce and market a biologic drug expire, it opens the door for biosimilar developers to enter the arena with more affordable versions of these complex therapeutic agents. This phenomenon is particularly notable in the context of rising healthcare costs and the growing demand for accessible, cost-effective treatments. The biosimilar and follow-on biologic market gains traction as developers capitalize on the expiration of patents to introduce alternatives that maintain comparable quality, efficacy, and safety profiles to the original biologics.

Additionally, the increased availability of biosimilars contributes to improved treatment accessibility, empowering healthcare providers with a diverse range of therapeutic options. As the biosimilar and follow-on biologic market grows in response to patent expirations, it plays a pivotal role in reshaping the pharmaceutical landscape, promoting innovation, and advancing the goal of providing high-quality healthcare solutions to a wider demographic.

Some of the leading drugs that will expire in the next five years includes the blockbuster drug Keytruda (Pembrolizumab ) in 2028, Eliquis (Apixaban) in 2027, Opdivo (nivolumab) in 2028, and Xarelto (Rivaroxaban) in 2026 among several others.

How has COVID-19 had a Significant Impact on the Biosimilars and Follow-on Biologics Market?

The COVID-19 pandemic had significantly impacted the supply chain, where disruptions caused by lockdowns, travel restrictions, and workforce shortages have hindered manufacturing and distribution processes. These disruptions led to delays in bringing new biosimilars to market, exacerbating an already competitive landscape.

Moreover, the pandemic has underscored the critical role of biologics in treating various diseases, including severe cases of COVID-19. This increased demand for biologics, coupled with regulatory delays in approval processes, has further complicated market dynamics. Regulatory agencies, faced with the challenge of maintaining operations amidst the crisis, struggled to keep pace with the approval of new biosimilars, impeding market expansion.

The COVID-19 crisis has underscored the importance of enhancing healthcare resilience and diversifying pharmaceutical supply chains. This emphasis on supply chain resilience presents an opportunity for local and regional biosimilar manufacturers to strengthen their market presence. Furthermore, the pandemic has accelerated the digital transformation of healthcare delivery, including telemedicine and remote monitoring. These technological advancements have the potential to facilitate greater patient access to biosimilar by streamlining prescription and distribution processes. The economic impact of the pandemic has heightened the urgency of cost-saving measures, making biosimilars increasingly attractive to healthcare providers and payers alike.

What are the Current Market Drivers?

Growing Incidence of Chronic Diseases

The escalating incidence of chronic diseases globally has emerged as a driving force behind the burgeoning biosimilars market. The Lancet global burden studies show that chronic conditions caused 74% of all deaths worldwide rising from 67% of deaths in a decade ago. The mortality data reflect high prevalence’s of chronic conditions across populations. For example, in Australia, the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare has noted 47% of Australians have at least one chronic disease with 20% having 2 or more. 51% of hospitalizations involve chronic disease, 90% of deaths and disease burden is borne disproportionately by adults and those living in remote areas.

As conditions such as cancer, autoimmune disorders, and diabetes become more prevalent, the demand for advanced and affordable therapeutic options intensifies. Biosimilars, offering comparable efficacy to their reference biologics, present a compelling solution to address the therapeutic needs of patients grappling with chronic illnesses. The increasing burden of chronic diseases on healthcare systems underscores the significance of biosimilars as cost-effective alternatives, providing healthcare providers with a viable means to enhance treatment accessibility for a broader patient population.

Moreover, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases accentuates the economic strain on healthcare budgets, prompting a growing interest in biosimilars as a means to curb escalating healthcare expenditures. Biosimilars have the potential to play a transformative role in ensuring sustainable healthcare by offering more budget-friendly alternatives without compromising therapeutic effectiveness. This aligns with the broader goal of achieving optimal patient outcomes while navigating the financial constraints associated with the management of chronic conditions. As the incidence of chronic diseases continues to rise, the biosimilars market stands poised to play a pivotal role in reshaping the landscape of therapeutic interventions, contributing to improved patient access and long-term healthcare sustainability.

Established Guidelines for Approval of Biosimilars Projected to Drive Industry Growth

Regulatory agencies worldwide have taken a proactive approach in shaping the biosimilars landscape by establishing clear and stringent guidelines for their approval. Regulatory guidelines provide a transparent pathway for biosimilar developers, offering a set of rigorous requirements that must be met to obtain regulatory approval. Such clarity not only instils confidence in the biosimilar development process but also fosters a regulatory environment that prioritizes patient safety and therapeutic efficacy.

The established guidelines address critical aspects such as comparative analytical studies, clinical trial design, and post-marketing surveillance, ensuring that biosimilars undergo comprehensive scrutiny before entering the market. This regulatory clarity has not only streamlined the approval process but has also facilitated a more efficient development timeline for biosimilars, promoting competition and widening the array of treatment options available to healthcare providers and patients. As regulatory agencies continue to refine and update these guidelines, they play a crucial role in shaping the evolution of the biosimilars market, supporting innovation, and maintaining the highest standards of quality and safety in biopharmaceutical development.
