Overview

Tutorial:  October 18*
Meeting:  October 19-20

*Tutorials require registration and are an additional fee


With the approval of the first biosimilars in the US and potentially more to follow, and with expiration of patents for originator biologicals, the market for biosimilars is poised to grow at a rapid pace. These biosimilars and follow-on biologics have garnered great interest presenting new market opportunities for industry and potential for cost-effective benefits in patient care.

As biosimilars become more available to patients, there are important factors for patients and health care providers that must be addressed. This meeting will focus on the innovations, technologies, and regulatory information surrounding biosimilars. This is an exciting time in our industry.  DIA’s Biosimilars 2015 is the ideal time to hear from FDA and international agencies – What will they expect in biosimilars going forward?

This two-day interactive meeting will include topics on:

  • US and Global Regulatory Developments
  • US and Global Commercial Considerations
  • Biosimilars in the US
  • Quality Considerations
  • Clinical Considerations
  • Biosimilars in Oncology
  • Interchangeability
  • The Payer Perspective
