Reportlinker Adds Global Biosimilars (Follow-on biologics) Market: An Analysis

NEW YORK, Nov. 18, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:

Global Biosimilars (Follow-on biologics) Market: An Analysis

http://www.reportlinker.com/p0330557/Global-Biosimilars-Follow-on-biologics-Market-An-Analysis.html

Biosimilars or FOBs (Follow-on biologics) refer to generic versions of patented branded biological drugs, developed subsequent to the patent expiry of brand name products. The biosimilars market is segmented into peptides, recombinant glycosylated proteins, recombinant non-glycosylated proteins, and others. In 2009, biosimilar recombinant non glycosylated protein products formed the largest market segment since blockbuster biopharmaceutical drug such as interferon, human growth hormone-Somatropin, insulin and G-CSF; belong to this class and have wide range of applications.

Overburdened due to rising healthcare costs, ageing population, expensive drugs and pharmaceutical expenditure, biosimilar market is getting boost from increasing user acceptance and emerging Indian and Chinese markets. The major challenge for the biosimilar market is risk involved with the high investment and possible failure of the drug during development stages. However, opportunities for biosimilar market is immense, as biologics are going to be off patent by 2015 and an anticipated approval pathway in U.S. will open up potentially largest market. The growth potential of the biosimilars market is expected to be strong, with patents for a number of second-generation therapeutic proteins (Enbrel, Remicade, Herceptin, etc.) slated for expiry between 2013 and 2019. The global biosimilars market is highly fragmented with the presence of some leading players such as Biocon, Dr Reddy's Lab, Intas, LG LifeSciences, Ranbaxy, Reliance LifeSciences, Sandoz, Teva, and Wockhardt.
