Biosimilars | China In-Depth | Oncology and Immunology | China I 2023

China’s biosimilar market has evolved rapidly over the past four years since the approval of Henlius Biotech’s HLX01—a biosimilar of Roche’s MabThera (rituximab)—in February 2019. As of 2022, there are eight approved biosimilars of Roche’s Avastin (bevacizumab), six of AbbVie’s Humira (adalimumab), and three of J&J’s Remicade (infliximab), with many more in development. China has a high disease burden of cancer and immunological diseases, and the country bears the highest global footprint of many such illnesses. The approval of cost-effective biosimilars has boosted the uptake of biologics in the respective markets. Various regulatory policies are being implemented to streamline the overall drug development, approval, and reimbursement processes, further encouraging adoption of biosimilars in China market.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED

• Which are the key biologics going off-patent during the 2022-2032 forecast period?
• How will market dynamics be impacted by the launch of biosimilars for corresponding brands?
• What are the key drivers and constraints in this market, and how will the market evolve over the forecast period?
• What are the key market access considerations, and how are they likely to impact the uptake of emerging biosimilars in China?
