Biosimilars have been available in Europe for over a decade, and have offered the opportunity to vastly reduce the cost of treatment for a large number of biologic agents.
The first antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), Mylotarg, reached the market almost two decades ago. Since this time, the ADC field has undergone slow but transformative enhancements, with improvements to technologies and advancements in the pipeline leading to an invigoration of the field. The past couple of years have seen the approvals of three new ADCs: Polivy, Lumoxiti, and Besponsa, increasing the total number of ADCs approved by regulators worldwide to six. These approvals mark the start of a new era in which the ADC field is finally beginning to realize its full potential. With the ADC pipeline swelling to around 250 novel candidates in various stages of preclinical and clinical development, approvals for more ADCs appear firmly on the horizon.

The challenges faced by biosimilar developers are not unlike those confronting their branded counterparts. First, companies must develop high-quality biosimilars and obtain regulatory approval. Next, they must then navigate the vast array of commercial nuances that exist at the national level in order for their products to be used in the clinical setting.

Datamonitor Healthcare attended the ISPOR 21st Annual European Congress held in Barcelona on 10–14 November. Here, we present some of the hot topics discussed at the event.
Competition from drugs in the same class (with the same mechanism of action and treating the same disease) presents a clear challenge to a first-in-class market entrant. And the speed with which these competitors arrive impacts market dynamics, commercial strategies, and, increasingly, drug prices. Therapies that enjoy extended monopolies as sole entrants in a particular class have greater commercial flexibility in negotiating with payers. Multiple drugs in the same class give payers better leverage with which to negotiate rebates and discounts with drug companies.
Payers are not overly worried about the cost of bladder cancer, due to the relatively small patient population in comparison to other solid tumors.
