However, the patents of MabThera (Roche\u2019s rituximab), Herceptin (Roche\u2019s trastuzumab), Avastin (Roche\u2019s bevacizumab), and Erbitux (Merck Serono\u2019s cetuximab) are expiring, and biosimilars of these agents will compete with the original brands and emerging therapies in the treatment of these cancers. The public healthcare systems in Brazil and Mexico currently provide incomplete coverage for these costly biologic treatments. Biosimilars are expected to be more affordable alternatives that may enable these cost-conscious healthcare systems to provide wider coverage for targeted biologic treatment for NHL, breast cancer, and CRC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-391432","report","type-report","status-publish","hentry","report-gateway-biopharma","biopharma-therapy-areas-breast-cancer","biopharma-therapy-areas-colorectal-cancer","biopharma-therapy-areas-oncology","biopharma-product-biosimilars","biopharma-geography-brazil","biopharma-geography-mexico","biopharma-date-717"],"acf":[],"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/life-sciences-healthcare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/report\/391432","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\/391432\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":576972,"href":"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/life-sciences-healthcare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/report\/391432\/revisions\/576972"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/life-sciences-healthcare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=391432"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
