The pipeline of immune biosimilars includes several agents that reference AbbVie\u2019s very successful biologic Humira (adalimumab). Biosimilars of Humira have been available in Europe since October 2018. Biosimilars referencing Roche\u2019s Rituxan \/ MabThera (rituximab) have also launched in Europe and the United States. As the immune biosimilar space becomes increasingly competitive, it is important that manufacturers and marketers of biosimilars and branded biologics understand the factors that most influence physicians\u2019 choice of therapy. Clarivate conducted market research with rheumatologists and gastroenterologists in France, Germany, and the United States to gain insights into their attitude toward biosimilars, the drivers of and barriers to their use of biosimilars, and their expectations for future biosimilar adoption.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Questions answered: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Have physicians received recommendations to use biosimilars?<\/li>\n<li>Are physicians switching patients from reference brands to biosimilars?<\/li>\n<li>What factors do physicians consider when choosing between competing biosimilars?<\/li>\n<li>How are TNF-alpha inhibitor and MAb biosimilars performing, and what are physicians\u2019 expectations for their future uptake?<\/li>\n<li>What are the key drivers of and barriers to the uptake of TNF-alpha inhibitor and MAb biosimilars?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Scope: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><!--{C}%3C!%2D%2D%5Bendif%5D%2D%2D%3E--><strong>Markets covered<\/strong>: France, Germany, and the United States.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Primary research<\/strong>: Survey of 90\u00a0rheumatologists and 92\u00a0gastroenterologists.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Key companies mentioned:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Amgen<\/li>\n<li>AbbVie<\/li>\n<li>Biogen<\/li>\n<li>Celltrion<\/li>\n<li>Johnson &#038; Johnson \/ Janssen<\/li>\n<li>Merck &#038; Co. \/ MSD<\/li>\n<li>Mundipharma<\/li>\n<li>Novartis \/ Sandoz<\/li>\n<li>Pfizer \/ Hospira<\/li>\n<li>Roche \/ Genentech<\/li>\n<li>Samsung Bioepis<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Key drugs mentioned:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Inflectra (infliximab)<\/li>\n<li>Remsima (infliximab)<\/li>\n<li>Benepali (etanercept)<\/li>\n<li>Flixabi (infliximab)<\/li>\n<li>Truxima (rituximab)<\/li>\n<li>Enbrel (etanercept)<\/li>\n<li>Humira (adalimumab)<\/li>\n<li>Remicade (infliximab)<\/li>\n<li>Rituxan \/ MabThera (rituximab)<\/li>\n<li>Simponi (golimumab)<\/li>\n<li>Cimzia (certolizumab pegol)<\/li>\n<li>Orencia (abatacept)<\/li>\n<li>Actemra \/ RoActemra (tocilizumab)<\/li>\n<li>Stelara (ustekinumab)<\/li>\n<li>Entyvio (vedolizumab)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-390146","report","type-report","status-publish","hentry","report-gateway-biopharma","biopharma-product-biosimilars","biopharma-product-current-treatment","biopharma-geography-us","biopharma-date-942"],"acf":[],"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/life-sciences-healthcare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/report\/390146","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/life-sciences-healthcare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/report"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/life-sciences-healthcare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/report"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/life-sciences-healthcare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/report\/390146\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":576479,"href":"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/life-sciences-healthcare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/report\/390146\/revisions\/576479"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/life-sciences-healthcare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=390146"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
