Julie Ann Rosenberg, MD
Development Asset Lead, Oncology Biosimilars, Pfizer Essential Health

Despite availability and known effectiveness of biologic therapies, limited patient access may affect overall patient outcomes. The global cost of cancer care continues to rise, and some healthcare systems ration high-cost treatments. Worldwide access to effective cancer treatments remains an unmet medical need in many countries.
This session will review:
• The evolving therapeutic landscape of oncology and the integration of biosimilars
• Key considerations in clinical trials of biosimilars in oncology
• Extrapolation of indications in Oncology
• Patient views on biosimilars and access to cancer care
• US Regulatory considerations for oncology biosimilars
