....However, all stakeholders must contribute to improving trust and confidence in biosimilars
Payors: Support biosimilar education amongst HCPs
Patient Groups: Develop and share educational
content for patients
HCPs: Deepen understanding of biosimilars and help reassure patients
Manufacturers: Ensure availability of science-based
information on biosimilars
Govt: Continue to highlight societal value of biosimilars across stakeholders
Regulators: Engage with HCPs on robustness of regulations/extrapolation
Increasing adoption of biosimilars
Collectively address the scourge of misinformation
6 | Medicines for Europe Biosimilars Conference | April 2016
Considerable variation across the EU exists in terms of payer policy approaches to biosimilars
Many patients available for
manufacturers to compete for
Most patients out of reach for manufacturers
National management passive (i.e. fixed biosimilar price reduction)
No prescribing incentives
No prescription quota
Increased active management nationally
Education of physicians by payers
Biosimilar prescribing stimulated (quotas)
Competition averse Foster competition

Healthcare systems must advance policies that ensure sustainability
Sustainable Procurement
No “winner takes all tenders”
Acknowledge that biosimilars are not generics: no mandatory price cuts
Promote fair competition and level-playing field
Prescribing Incentives
“Gain-sharing” that helps hospitals to benefit from savings
Quotas to create competition while retaining prescriber choice
Support acquisition of most cost-effective medication by hospitals

Legal and regulatory clarity essential for further development of the biosimilars industry
Maintain established regulatory framework
BPCIA Ambiguities
INN & Labeling
Interchangeability
9 | Medicines for Europe Biosimilars Conference | April 2016
Collectively, we can ensure biosimilars play an even more transformational role in global healthcare
49-98B€ Expected cumulative savings from
biosimilars 2016-2020 in US+EU51
Generate savings for healthcare systems
