Biosimilar Companies In India Have Edge Over Their Global Counterparts

Release Date: 06-Sep-2012



Biosimilar companies in India have a clear edge over their global counterparts, due to lower facility and development costs, strategic partnership plans for clinical trials, future commercialization with companies in the US and the European Union (EU), and strong scientific and technical framework ensuring world-class quality.Indiacan emerge as one of the leaders in global biologic development by the end of this decade. Critical factors for Indian companies to succeed in the biosimilars market are an appropriate marketing structure as well as the financial resources to develop the products and to accept higher upfront risks in development, commercialization and capital investment.

However, the biosimilars market does pose some challenges. The process to develop a biosimilar is more complex than that of developing a generic copy of a chemical-based compound. Furthermore, the regulatory framework is not completely finalized in both theUSand EU, which are the largest markets for biosimilars. Besides the regulatory and clinical development obstacles that are costly and time consuming, Indian players need to constantly upgrade their capabilities as their organizations mature. Some of these include joint venture and alliance management for collaborative research, contract research, contract manufacturing, developing technology transfer management and marketing arrangement for biosimilars globally.
