Dr Marcus H. Snow: Biosimilar Treatments in Children
Marcus H. Snow, MD, Assistant Professor of Rheumatology, University of Nebraska, discusses the use of biosimilar treatments in children.
Transcript:
Are there special considerations when using biosimilars in children?
Generally, no. Ultimately, in the pediatric realm, we end up having a lot of extrapolation of data and the biosimilars with the pediatric population should not be; ideally, this would be studied as much as it is in the adult world, but we just do not have that as often.
How AI Can Help Address Cost-Related Nonadherence to Biologic, Biosimilar Treatment
March 9th 2025Despite saving billions, biosimilars still account for only a small share of the biologics market—what's standing in the way of broader adoption and how can artificial intelligence (AI) help change that?
Adalimumab Biosimilar Switching Policy Shows Long-Term Success in IBD
February 26th 2025Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who switched from reference adalimumab (Humira) to a biosimilar under a mandatory nonmedical switching policy maintained long-term safety, efficacy, and treatment persistence comparable to those who remained on the originator drug, according to a Canadian study.
Biosimilars in America: Overcoming Barriers and Maximizing Impact

Resolution of Injection Site Reactions After Switching to Adalimumab Biosimilar
February 22nd 2025A 15-year-old girl with ulcerative colitis who developed injection site reactions to the adalimumab reference product was successfully switched to the biosimilar LBAL without recurrence of symptoms, demonstrating the safety and effectiveness of switching for medical reasons, likely due to an allergic reaction to an excipient in the originator.
Disease Activity, Safety Remain Following Switch From Infliximab Biosimilar to Remicade in IBD
February 15th 2025Switching back from infliximab biosimilar SB2 to reference infliximab (Remicade) did not affect clinical disease activity or safety in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), according to a prospective cohort study.
