Biosimilars – Access & Reimbursement – Payer Insights Landscape (US/EU)

Biosimilar regulations and guidance have been defined, at least in draft form, in most the world’s leading pharmaceutical markets. In many cases, biosimilar guidance is based on that of the EMA, which first implemented a development framework for biosimilars, but the degree of similarity and granularity varies by country. Payers play a significant role in defining the commercial success of biosimilars—as well as their reference brands—as they decide which products are granted formulary access and preferential reimbursement. As such, it is necessary for biosimilars developers and manufacturers of branded biologics to understand payers’ perceptions and attitudes toward biosimilars, which factors influence payer decisions regarding biosimilars, and how these factors vary across different markets.

Questions answered

• What does the country’s biosimilar regulatory pathway dictate, and how does it differ from other markets?

• How are biosimilars priced and reimbursed?
• Will payers’ attitudes toward indication extrapolation restrict the use of biosimilars?
• Will payers permit patients to continue current treatment with the reference brand or encourage switching to biosimilars?
• What level of biosimilar discount do payers need to preferentially reimburse a biosimilar, and what formulary methods do payers expect to use to stimulate uptake of biosimilars at various price discounts?
• Do payers expect availability of biosimilars to increase the total volume of the drug used?
• What are the key strategies employed to drive biosimilar uptake?
