The Biosimilars North America meeting will take place on November 16-17, 2016, New Jersey, USA.

ISELIN, NEW JERSEY, UNITED STATES, August 18, 2016 /EINPresswire.com/ -- It's without doubts that the biosimilars market present lucrative opportunities for pharmaceuticals and biotech companies. Over the last 12 months, market participants have witnessed revolutionary steps in the US to facilitate commercialization.

The 3rd Annual Biosimilars North America conference will provide timely discussion with case studies on how to commercialize biosimilars, latest market developments and regulatory updates to ensure you stay at the forefront of this evolving market!
In the run up to the event, the SMi Group caught up with the conference chairman: Richard Dicicco, Chairman, Harvest Moon Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. for the exclusive interview, revealing his thoughts on biosimilars market situation in the US, approval process, regulatory framework and much more.
In the interview Richard Dicicco said about the approval process in the United States:

"We have three approved biosimilar mAb products in the US in 2016 totalling four biosimilars... FDA has optimized and streamlined the approval process...Once the sponsors are able to develop robust presentations with their data statistically presented by the FDA statisticians to the Advisory committees, approval comes quickly and unanimously. Once the insurance coverage gaps are filled, the initial biosimilar entrance will behave as branded biologics but eventually the market will become commoditized as a deeply discounted generic market from what we have seen in Europe... "
